How to do a cfdump inside a cfscript tag?

Question

In order to debug I would like to dump certain variables on to my web page. How can I do that from inside a cfscript tag?

I tried the following but it isn\'t working

Answer 1

Isn't the following much easier and straightforward?

oAdmin = createObject("component", "cfide.adminapi.base");
oAdmin.dump(myVar);

It works on CF7 and forward, perhaps even earlier.
