argument collection seems to be being differently to ACF here, it seems to be creating an arguments key even though it’s not passed in which allows keyExists to pass but the value is NULL. It should fail the keyExists check:
test.cfm
test.cfc
Errors with: Cannot invoke method [len()] on a null object - arguments.keyExists('missingKey')should not be true

It doesn’t really matter what version of BoxLang you’re on. The fix went into the compat module on Nov 1st, but the compat module hasn’t had a stable release since Oct 31st.
Are you using the snapshot version of the compat module? I assume it simply got skipped on accident when we cut the last Boxlang beta.

current snapshot still has same error Cannot invoke method [len()] on a null object when running the test code above.

I just tried my test code above on beta21 and it fails with the same error.

The compat module now handles this.

Why is this ticket marked resolved? No fix has been put in for it yet. At least, not by me.
