I have a function, and even though its ACCESS attribute is set to 'public', it could feasibly be called by other access types. For example:
<!--- In myPage.cfm --->
<cfset x = SomeObject.methodName() /> <!--- Called the method publicly --->
<!--- In the component holding the methodName() function, but from another function in the same file. --->
<cfset y = methodName() /> <!--- Called the method privately. --->
So far, polling getMetaData() and even getComponentMetaData(), all I can determine is the ACCESS attribute value of the function in question, but not the access type of how that method was invoked
