RE: Flash and CF Integration

[Matthew P. Smith]

So much good info!  I struggled with just trying to load from a text
file, but this gives me a few gotchas to check out.  I might actually
get it to work this time.

you use a 
loadVariables( "http://www.syourdomain.com/page.cfm";
 , _root);

command. Things to note.
Do a search on LoadVarsNum and LoadVars - you'll wind up using needing
to know when to use which and why.

Also - notice my "_root." - well in some instances that may work as
"_level0." depending on setup of your movie. But if all the boxes are
simply on root timeline - then you reference a loaded var from cf string
&name=Dennis
as _root.name in the text properties box.

It is better practice to load the vars up into a MC - In that case
change that statement way up top to the instance name. Create an MC with
all your form fields in it. Place it on the stage. Remember to name it
in instance properites and load them into that MC. Say the MC was -
MyStuff.
then you reference it simply as _root.MyStuff.name
Follow?

Also - important 
you CAN NOT use data on the same frame you loaded it.

This will save you alot of time. Parse a variable to look for at the end
of the cfm string. like &EOF=True
Then in flash - the frame after your loadVars - do something like this
if (EOF == 1) {
EOF = 0;
gotoAndPlay(3);
} else {
gotoAndPlay(1);
}

So it only proceeds IF the end of the string is received. Flash takes
care of everything else.

That should get you started.
actionscript.org & 
flashcfm.com are great resources with out too much noise.

Yes, this can be done in Flash.  We're working on a very similar 

application where it maps items to a grid and then draws connectors

between 

related items.



Regarding layers, the first thing to remember is that they are only used



for z-order and organization.  AFAIK, they don't actually exist in the 

final SWF (only in the FLA).  That said, it is crucial to app 

maintainability that all items be on a separate later, or at the very

least 

all unrelated items (so a box and it's outline can be on a layer, but

other 

boxes should be on a different layer).



However, for dynamic layout like this, it's far easier to add items to

the 

timeline programmatically with attachMovie--when dealing with this many 

boxes, you should find it improves maintainability.



BTW, since these questions are not really related to CF, this thread

would 

probably be best served on a Flash 

forum.   http://webforums.macromedia.com/flash

Re: GoogleBot Robot.txt

[Jim McAtee]

What good would it do you if the indexing robot sees exactly the same page
content on every page it retrieves?

If you just want to keep googlebot from spidering the entire site, including the
root level, use the following in your robots.txt:

User-agent: googlebot
Disallow: /

But I'd find out _why_ the robot is accessing files without passing parameters.
If some of those files aren't complete web pages (cfinclude's or cf tags), I'd
really be worried.  Normally, it only follows links that exist somewhere on your
site, or possibly on another site.  So it would suggest you've got some bad
links somewhere.

There is a list for java beginners here:

It's associated with the WROX book "Beginning Java 2 SDK 1.4 Edition"
(which I've recently started reading), but you could probably ask your

WROX has more lists here:

OK, then it would seem to make sense to use "hot deploy"on a developer 
system
where the performance overhead would not be an issue.

Then, on a single-server production system, not use "hot deploy".

So, with session replication/failover, you:

   1) recompile the necessary Java class files and deploy them on all 
the servers (they remain inactive).

   2) recycle each server, one-at-a-time, activating the updated class 
files

It could get messy if the old Java classes were causing failures and/or 
you had other
failures when recycling the individual servers -- but this would be 
unlikely.

At best, you wouldn't even notice.

At worst, you could recycle the whole system,

So, If I understand, because of the automatic "not compile and hot 
deploy" of CF templates under CFMX --
You can incorporate CF changes, without recycling the system.

On a pure Java/JSP system, you would likely need to recycle the system.

Appears to be an advantage for CFMX.

Is there some endemic reason that Java programs can't be/aren't "hot 
deployed" similar to the way CFMX does it?

This whole server side is a big unknown to me -- thanks for your

I will hazard a guess that the 100% CPU is related to the alert polling 
for a keyboard / mouse event to acknowledge and go away. That's not 
your problem.

The "Pure Virtual Function Call" error is a standard C++ issue. 
Something has attempted to call a method on a class for which no 
implementation exists. My first suspicion would be a C++ CFX tag...

Can you isolate it to that page by running test? That would be a big 
help.

As I say, my first suspicion would be a badly written CFX tag.

Re: activePDF

  I have only used the ActivePDF toolkit.
  It is really really really easy to get up and running.
  It uses COM.  My experience with ActivePDF is that it has no problems 
with CFMX.  As near as I can tell, that makes me the only living person in 
existence who has been able to successfully use a COM object w/ CFMX.

  I'm not sure about competitors, but I do know that there are other ways 
to generate PDFs on the fly.

Not if it is in a 'hot deploy' directory is my understanding (this has

A feature.

They drop and restart each server in the cluster. Normally production 
systems do not use 'hot deploy' because of the performance overhead 
involved in 'watching' a hot deploy directory.

See above for clusters - some of those systems support session 
replication / failover. That means zero downtime for this sort of 
upgrade.

RE: Using a counter variable

[Mosh Teitelbaum]

Aimee:

Looks like you're mixing code from a number of different suggestions.  There
were some good suggestions, but some parts do not work well or are not
needed with other parts.  First, the answer to your question, and then some
complete (but untested) code.

The reason why you're always getting the survey link is because of the
following code:

The MOD operator returns the remainder when one integer is divided by
another integer (remember long division?).  So, for example, 5 MOD 2 = 1,
because
2 (a) goes into 5 two (b) times,
2 (a) x 2 (b) = 4 (c),
and 5 - 4 (c) = 1

In your case, APPLICATION.Counter is initially set to 0.  0 MOD 7 = 0
because 7 goes into 0 zero times and has a remainder of 0.  So the above
CFIF statement is always true.

Now, the "complete" code (which is not really complete because I'm going to
leave out the CFMAIL stuff and just use a comment to show where the link is
supposed to go 8^>):

Application.cfm:










ActionPage.cfm:






















Hope this works for you.

GoogleBot Robot.txt

[cfhelp]

I have put a robots.txt file in the root of my site to stop it from
accessing subdirectories. But GoogleBot is still accessing all the files in
my root bit some of the files do not run without passing a variable to them.
So my Application Logfile is full of errors.

So I want to know if it is a good idea to put this in my Application.cfm
file?

security question

[michael firth]

Hey gang out there in CF land,

Got a question for a security application I am doing up, plus also cure my curiousity. 
 You see the security app I am building I would like to include some sort of safeguard 
that allows or prevents people from collecting emails, but in order to do that I need 
to know how they do that process.

I thought about it and would think that access the Registry but am not totally sure.  
If anybody has any thoughts to share just let me know.

Mike Firth

CFMX Server -Java class

[Dick Applebaum]

Nobody answered these questions under another thread, so I'll post 
again.

You recompile a Java class file that is referenced by cfobject.

I am told that you must recycle CFMX for the updated class file to be 
recognized.

Is this a bug or a feature?

If this is true, what does a high-traffic, clustered production system 
do when they
need to change a Java program (say to fix a bug, or a security 
exposure).

Do they need to restart the entire system?

What about CFMXj2ee running on JRun, webSphere, ant the like?

What about Pure Java/JSP systems on these app servers?

TIA

Dick

Yes, that was understood  -- but CFML typing would allow the CF Parser

I don't entirely agree with -- if you are subject to interruption (e.g.

I primarily use BBEdit -- It probably has this capability -- Never used

I also have Jedit.

Between the two, this can probably be accomplished -- good suggestion!

CFCHART - how to use it with lists?

[Dustin Snell [Unisyn Software, LLC]]

Hi all. I am having trouble understanding how to use CFCHART.  Before I was
using the BarChart.class Java applets to do this and all I had to do was
supply it with a two lists - items and values - and it worked.  Can somebody
give me some sample code that would allow me to make a chart out of these
two lists with the CFCHART tag?

Thanks in advance.

cfmail and html encoding

[Peter Mayer]

Hello!

I am sending out an email with cfmail and the message type "html". I have 

encoded the "special" chars like ü, ö, ä, & and so on in the body part 
with 
the correspondending html elements (f.e. ö) but when the email gets 
out the recipient all changes are undone and in the email is written "ö".

As a consequence I have tried to add charset definitions and so on but 
nothing helped. How can I stop cfmail to auto-replace?

Best regards,

Peter

Subject: RE: Server Problems When Code is Not Locked (was RE:

Doug;

Thanks for the reply.

Except for some custom modules I am not concerned with at this time, the
main application really only uses heavy SQL on one page (the one where it
places all the structures in the application scope). There it runs 26
queries, all of which take some time to run and return large amounts of
data.

The funny thing is, there has never been an error on this page. It always
runs as expected, the errors come on other pages.

Right now, the average time for a page to generate in the system is just
under 60 ms (but I think this is going up with the new data locking scheme).

There are no CFX tags in this part of the application (there is an ArcIMS
interface, part of a custom module I have put off dealing with until the
main application is under control).

I did just rewrite the application in Fusebox, though, which makes use of
custom tags in the core files...

Hopefully this is not the problem. The application is running on CF 4.5 on
NT4.

In my experience, PCode errors were usually the result of not using cflocks
where needed.  IMHO, you are on the right track moving schtuff to the
request scope.  From an earlier posting by Mike Brunt, and what  I do in my
apps, I'd suggest using

In Application.cfm





In OnRequestEnd.cfm





The onrequestend bit adds any NEW vars you introduced in the request scope
to be added to the session scope.  This way you need only use CFLOCK twice
in your whole application.  Be careful of CFABORT use with this though.

As for these errors
>-
>Request cancelled or ignored by serverServer busy or unable to fulfill

Check your page 'weight'.  Are you running heavy SQL?  CFX tags?  You may
need to tweak your SQL to run better and also play with the number of
simultaneous request limit in the CFADMIN tool.  What you set this at
depends on what your app does.  I have it set to 10 threads per CPU as my
app is very DB intense.  Others set this to 3-4 per CPU.  Also look at your
request timeout limit.

Again, I could be totally misinformed - I only write cfx_ tags at home with
a dev edition and it's not too bad typing

$/opt/coldfusionmx/bin/coldfusion stop
$/opt/coldfusionmx/bin/coldfusion start

(i dont trust restart)

Then take them to work and acctuallly add them to live server (which I
restart)

But I would dig auto-reload - if it's not already there.

Depends on the "interact with desktop" setting in the services window.

System messages like this will only show up when a user logs in
interactively (as opposed to remotely).

A service can interact with the desktop, in more ways than one.

I used to see that quite a bit, especially under load. I saw it a lot less
after upgrading to CF 4.5.1 SP2. I was never able to isolate specific bits
of CFML code as the cause of the problem.

Hi there

[Haggerty, Mike]

Sean;

How's it going? Long time no hear. How was Devcon?

Since you're the last person from Macromedia I know, I was wondering if you
knew anyone who could help me with an issue I am running into?

I have an installation of CF 4.5 on NT 4 that is behaving bizarrely.

The following keeps happening, and I have no clue why: 

1) The processor runs up to 100% on the server.
2) An alert box shoots up on the screen. The title is 'C++ Runtime Library'.
3) The text of the message is: 
'Runtime Error!
Program: c:\cfusion\bin\cfserver.exe
R6025
Pure Virtual Function Call'
4) Processor remains at 100% until you click the box, at which point the
server returns to normal, retaining the application scope in memory.

I think it may be related to one page in my application, but I am not
certain if that is the case or not. Now, I do have a lot of data stored in
the application scope, but no more than I have used in other applications on
other servers. 

This one is really a pain and I am not sure how to troubleshoot it. Any help
would be appreciated.

Thanks,
M

Dick.. 
This is known problem when you work with Java Classes, i never got the
configuration right to do *HOTLOAD*.. Sean was going to help out.. but i think
he is busy.

Temp Solution.
Every time, you re-compile the Java File, you have STOP-RESTART CFMX Service.
This will resolve that.

  You haven't made your counter variable persistent.  Every time someone makes
  a new request of your application, Application.cfm creates a new variable
  called "counter" and sets it equal to 0.  You need to make your variable
  persistent.  And since you want it to work across multiple users, it should
  probably persist in the APPLICATION scope.

  So, your Application.cfm should look something like:

  
  
  
  
  

  Your action page should look something like:

Pure Virtual Function Call

[Haggerty, Mike]

I am running into serious issues with CF 4.5 on an NT 4 box.

There is this one application running on the box and somehow it is causing
the following to happen: 

1) The processor runs up to 100% on the server.
2) An alert box shoots up on the screen. The title is 'C++ Runtime Library'.
3) The text of the message is: 
'Runtime Error!
Program: c:\cfusion\bin\cfserver.exe
R6025
Pure Virtual Function Call'
4) Processor remains at 100% until you click the box, at which point the
server returns to normal, retaining the application scope in memory.

My suspicion is that this has been happening for a while, and that, somehow,
the little C++ window is only coming up when someone is logged in to the
server or when the server knows I am working on the application.

First off, this is a SERVICE causing this to happen. I thought services were
not supposed to throw alerts up on the screen, but instead dump their
messages into a log file (especially error messages). Am I wrong?

Secondly, does anyone know what is causing this to happen or how to fix it?
Thanks for not mentioning the need to migrate to Linux, and I can post code
if necessary.

Thanks,
M

Steps are irrelevant. Time is the question.

And if it is really that big an issue, your need to submit an 
enhancement request for you Java editor that is needs a button to 
publish (save and compile) the code. And if your CFML source editing 
environment is sufficiently smart/programmable it could just parse out 
an inline Java tag you defined yourself, move averything inside it to a 
java, compile it and translate the cf_inlinejava tag to the appropriate 
cfobject call.

For the advantages on the code editing you mention here, you just need a 
better code editor, not better server side components.

RE: Java in CF (CFMX)

[Rob Rohan]

Again, I could be totally misinformed - I only write cfx_ tags at home with
a dev edition and it's not too bad typing

$/opt/coldfusionmx/bin/coldfusion stop
$/opt/coldfusionmx/bin/coldfusion start

(i dont trust restart)

Then take them to work and acctuallly add them to live server (which I
restart)

But I would dig auto-reload - if it's not already there.

Are you saying that you need to restart CFMX to install a new Java

Now there's a convenient, user-friendly, implementation.

If what you say is true, I think you have just made the case for inline
Java -- at least for developers

Do you mean that a CF production house, running clusters, and all that,

I remember that thread -- the generated Java code was "Slow & Ugly".

Someone (maybe me), posted that strong typing in CFML would allow the CF
parser to generate better Java code.

I think you could get an interface between no-typing and strong typing

I think you would be more easily do develop and test the parts of your 
program
that you needed (or decided) to code in Java.

The inline code likely would be more efficient that CF parser generated 
code, so
yes there would be a performance gain (when warranted).

You might be developing a routine that will be ultimately deployed as a 
separate Java
program (invoked with cfobject) -- it could be more convenient to 
develop and debug
the Java inline, along with the CFML.

The dbMetaData example illustrates one advantage of inline Java.

Say you want to change the program(s) slightly so they return a list of 
db tables, and the
columns within each table.  On the presentation side, you want to 
display the combined
list in a select box.

Here' s what you do, presently:

1) display the Java source
2) modify the Java source.
3) save the Java source
4) switch to a CLI window
5) compile the Java source
6) switch to the CF source
7) modify the CF source
8) save the CF source
9) switch to a browser window
10) invoke the cf template

Here's what you would do with inline Java

1) display the combined  CF source with the inlineJava source
2) modify the inline Java source.
3) modify the CF source
4) save the combined  CF source with the inlineJava source
5) switch to a browser window
6) invoke the cf template

Now, you might say "You only save 4 steps!! -- but that's 40% of the 
steps.

and they are repeated many times.

You would be eliminating 40% of the interactions, 40% of the 
distractions,
40% of the opportunities to make a mistake.

It means productivity!

I hope this helps answer your question -- I really don't under stand 
what a helper/model class is, yet!

As an aside, does Java recognize a construct similar to a hash or a CF 
Structure,
that could be passed between CFML & Java.

You haven't made your counter variable persistent.  Every time someone makes
a new request of your application, Application.cfm creates a new variable
called "counter" and sets it equal to 0.  You need to make your variable
persistent.  And since you want it to work across multiple users, it should
probably persist in the APPLICATION scope.

So, your Application.cfm should look something like:







Your action page should look something like:

Howdy.

I am running a server at my house (adsl, speak easy, sweet) I have all the
server software I want except for a mail server.  I am looking for
something, free, runs on Windows 2000 AS, and has a GUI for admin (don't
want to learn a whole bunch of command line junk, yeah I am lazy, I know).
Also a decent freeware FTP server would be nice,  I am using IIS FTP and it
is junk.

Re: Java in CF (CFMX)

[Dick Applebaum]

Joe

I  have been modifing with your Java code to return tables and columns  
and I ran into a
weird situation.

for convenience, I put the ,java file in WEB-INF/classes

I recompile the program and get a class file

I run the CF template, but get the old version of the class file

I even deleted the class file -- something is being cached, somewhere  
-- Where?

TIA

Aimee:

The problem is that Application.cfm is always run before any template in the
same directory (or subdirectory that does not have its own Application.cfm).
So essentially the variable 'counter' is being set to 0 each time the page
loads.  It's also being set within the local scope, so it wouldn't really be
persistent.

In your Application.cfm, cfparam the variable (within the application scope)
as follows:


then, on your form's action page, you don't really want , as that would only trigger once.  You want , which says every 7th time, trigger event.

This will work until the application times out...not sure if that's what you
want or not.  You might just want to have a value in a database increment by
one for every insert...and if that value is evenly divisible by 7, run your
survey code.

hth,
charlie

RE: Using a counter variable

[Brian Ledwith]

It's because your Counter variable isn't sticking around long enough to be 
incrementing...  Try setting Counter as an Application variable in your 
Application.cfm page like this:


 


And on your action page, use this:

..do stuff...


 


Try it on a few dummy pages first.  Create a new subdirectory with a simple 
CFAPPLICATION tag on a fresh Application page, like:



 


And then plug this in on a Index.cfm page:


application.counter=#application.counter#

 Generate Email


Browse to that page, and hit refresh 6 times.  You'll see the counter increment, and 
when it gets to 7 (or a multiple of 7), you'll see "Generate Email".

RE: Using a counter variable

[Mosh Teitelbaum]

You haven't made your counter variable persistent.  Every time someone makes
a new request of your application, Application.cfm creates a new variable
called "counter" and sets it equal to 0.  You need to make your variable
persistent.  And since you want it to work across multiple users, it should
probably persist in the APPLICATION scope.

So, your Application.cfm should look something like:







Your action page should look something like:

I guess I really need some guidance on this problem. I tried putting the

Get rid of the enctype="multipart/form-data" attribute of your form. 
That may solve your issue. There is a known Mac IE bug in handling form

RE: SQL Question

[Luce, Greg]

Yeah, that's the ticket! I'll look in Books Online for the close and
deallocate cursor syntax. (It took 5 hours for this post to go up!) Thanks
Mark.

DECLARE @company varchar(20) -- or whatever

DECLARE myCursor FOR (select distinct company from tblBusiness where listnum
= 1)

open myCursor

Fetch Next from myCursor INTO @company

UPDATE tblBusiness
SET companyid = (select max(companyid) from tblBusiness
where listnum = 1) + 1
WHERE company = '@company'

close and deallocate the cursor...

Subject: RE: SQL Question


If you are trying to increment - an int for each company, then you can do it
like this:

UPDATE tblBusiness
SET companyid = (select max(companyid) from tblBusiness) + 1
WHERE company = 'blah'


If you must loop through all the companies you will have to open a cursor...
There are lots of examples in sql books on-line... If you need a simple
example I will send you one, but the basic idea is:

DECLARE @company varchar(20) -- or whatever

DECLARE myCursor FOR (select distinct company from tblBusiness)


open myCursor

Fetch Next from myCursor INTO @company

Run your update code




close and deallocate the cursor...



there's a lot more code to it - looping in SQL is a bit more verbose, but
it's not hard to get a handle on it if you want to.  Very useful too.

OK, I tried asking this on SQL Team and nobody understood. I want to
populate a new column in my tblBusiness called companyid. If there are 5
records for "Publix" I want all 5 to have the same companyid. I could do it
using CF very easily like this:

SELECTdistinct company AS company
FROM  tblBusiness




UPDATE tblBusiness
SET companyid = #currentrow#
WHERE company = '#company#'



My question is how ccan I do this in query analyzer. I'm sure you can create
loops and variables in an SQL script, I just don't know how.

Aimee: 

The problem is that Application.cfm is always run before any template in the 
same directory (or subdirectory that does not have its own Application.cfm). 
So essentially the variable 'counter' is being set to 0 each time the page 
loads.  It's also being set within the local scope, so it wouldn't really be 
persistent. 

In your Application.cfm, cfparam the variable (within the application scope) 
as follows:
 

then, on your form's action page, you don't really want , as that would only trigger once.  You want , which says every 7th time, trigger event. 

This will work until the application times out...not sure if that's what you 
want or not.  You might just want to have a value in a database increment by 
one for every insert...and if that value is evenly divisible by 7, run your 
survey code.

I understand your need. A while ago, we looked at the generated Java code(Real
Ugly!) from a *.cfm page. A lot of ugly wrappers coverting loose *.cfm TYPES
to strong Java Types..(Result..Slow pages)(Topic Jsp vs Cfm).

InLine Java Code.
If this ever happens, ideally.. CFMX complier should create a helper class
file and let Java Complier, compile it like a Jsp page.. this would be
excellent.. but again IS'nt CfObject doing the same thing?(seperating the
helper/model class from presentation)...Am trying to relate to "Inline Java"..
So what overall advantage do we get with Inline Java? Any Performance...?
other than coding between CF/Java in templates?

I am not against InLine Java.. just trying to understand the Mechanics.

Re: Flash and CF Integration

[Jason Miller]

you use a 
loadVariables( "http://www.syourdomain.com/page.cfm";
 , _root);

command. Things to note.
Do a search on LoadVarsNum and LoadVars - you'll wind up using needing
to know when to use which and why.

Also - notice my "_root." - well in some instances that may work as
"_level0." depending on setup of your movie. But if all the boxes are
simply on root timeline - then you reference a loaded var from cf string
&name=Dennis
as _root.name in the text properties box.

It is better practice to load the vars up into a MC - In that case
change that statement way up top to the instance name. Create an MC with
all your form fields in it. Place it on the stage. Remember to name it
in instance properites and load them into that MC. Say the MC was -
MyStuff.
then you reference it simply as _root.MyStuff.name
Follow?

Also - important 
you CAN NOT use data on the same frame you loaded it.

This will save you alot of time. Parse a variable to look for at the end
of the cfm string. like &EOF=True
Then in flash - the frame after your loadVars - do something like this
if (EOF == 1) {
EOF = 0;
gotoAndPlay(3);
} else {
gotoAndPlay(1);
}

So it only proceeds IF the end of the string is received. Flash takes
care of everything else.

That should get you started.
actionscript.org & 
flashcfm.com are great resources with out too much noise.

Yes, this can be done in Flash.  We're working on a very similar 

application where it maps items to a grid and then draws connectors

between 

related items.



Regarding layers, the first thing to remember is that they are only used



for z-order and organization.  AFAIK, they don't actually exist in the 

final SWF (only in the FLA).  That said, it is crucial to app 

maintainability that all items be on a separate later, or at the very

least 

all unrelated items (so a box and it's outline can be on a layer, but

other 

boxes should be on a different layer).



However, for dynamic layout like this, it's far easier to add items to

the 

timeline programmatically with attachMovie--when dealing with this many 

boxes, you should find it improves maintainability.



BTW, since these questions are not really related to CF, this thread

would 

probably be best served on a Flash 

forum.   http://webforums.macromedia.com/flash

Although below sounds like it should be done - I sort of cheated on a

So I simply added a Color field in items - have the user enter a comma

small,medium.large
and parse that to a drop down.

If you have the time however - I would follow the route below for 
scalability. Above works well enough on 2 large sites - just an idea.

RE: SQL Question

[Mark A. Kruger - CFG]

If you are trying to increment - an int for each company, then you can do it
like this:

UPDATE tblBusiness
SET companyid = (select max(companyid) from tblBusiness) + 1
WHERE company = 'blah'


If you must loop through all the companies you will have to open a cursor...
There are lots of examples in sql books on-line... If you need a simple
example I will send you one, but the basic idea is:

DECLARE @company varchar(20) -- or whatever

DECLARE myCursor FOR (select distinct company from tblBusiness)


open myCursor

Fetch Next from myCursor INTO @company

Run your update code

there's a lot more code to it - looping in SQL is a bit more verbose, but
it's not hard to get a handle on it if you want to.  Very useful too.

OK, I tried asking this on SQL Team and nobody understood. I want to
populate a new column in my tblBusiness called companyid. If there are 5
records for "Publix" I want all 5 to have the same companyid. I could do it
using CF very easily like this:

SELECTdistinct company AS company
FROM  tblBusiness




UPDATE tblBusiness
SET companyid = #currentrow#
WHERE company = '#company#'



My question is how ccan I do this in query analyzer. I'm sure you can create
loops and variables in an SQL script, I just don't know how.

I have not found a freeware mail server for the Windows platform, but I
have
both a Windows server and a Linux server, and on the Linux box, both of
the
very
popular Sendmail and Postfix are open source (free)  and both are very
easily
configurable for anti-spam and anti-virus scanning.  There are even
several
very
good open source anti-virus programs for the Linux box as well.

On a Windows Box, I run Imail 7.0 which is getting more expensive with
each
upgrade, but is a lot easier to administer than, say Exchange.

I purchased RedHat 7.3 from Best Buy for $49.00.  While the software is

if it is a number field or text field which the table does not have a

RE: Office XP anf CF

The examples on CFCOMET work well for word 2002 for the most part.
However, Word 2002 has lots of dialog boxes that don't occur under word
2000, and that makes automation tough.  You have to listen for beeps
when you're working with it.

RE: Writing a file with CFFILE

[S . Isaac Dealey]

Okay, so it's just as f***ed... or actually more-so because now I need a
solution to the native solution, because if I'm right about the results I
got this means no-one can enter html entities in form fields in CF and get
html entities on the action page, whether they're using htmleditformat() or
not:

















#form.html#







Try this (I'm using CF 5 Win2K Server IIS 5) -- save it a couple times,
you'll see what I was saying about the other half of the problem. You can't
put html entities in the form and have them save as html entities.

So it's actually worse than I thought it was, because once the form field
has been submitted and all the html entities have been converted back to <>"
etc there's no way to distinguish what was supposed to be html from what was
supposed to be entities.

That's a real good way to move forward with XML and XHTML.

It means that your email server is not configured to allow relay mail from your

add the IP address of the ColdFusion server to the allowed list of the mail server.

RE: Server Problems When Code is Not Locked (was RE: Application vari ables)

[Haggerty, Mike]

Doug;

Thanks for the reply.

Except for some custom modules I am not concerned with at this time, the
main application really only uses heavy SQL on one page (the one where it
places all the structures in the application scope). There it runs 26
queries, all of which take some time to run and return large amounts of
data.

The funny thing is, there has never been an error on this page. It always
runs as expected, the errors come on other pages.

Right now, the average time for a page to generate in the system is just
under 60 ms (but I think this is going up with the new data locking scheme).

There are no CFX tags in this part of the application (there is an ArcIMS
interface, part of a custom module I have put off dealing with until the
main application is under control).

I did just rewrite the application in Fusebox, though, which makes use of
custom tags in the core files...

Hopefully this is not the problem. The application is running on CF 4.5 on
NT4.

In my experience, PCode errors were usually the result of not using cflocks
where needed.  IMHO, you are on the right track moving schtuff to the
request scope.  From an earlier posting by Mike Brunt, and what  I do in my
apps, I'd suggest using 

In Application.cfm





In OnRequestEnd.cfm





The onrequestend bit adds any NEW vars you introduced in the request scope
to be added to the session scope.  This way you need only use CFLOCK twice
in your whole application.  Be careful of CFABORT use with this though.  

As for these errors
>-
>Request cancelled or ignored by serverServer busy or unable to fulfill

Check your page 'weight'.  Are you running heavy SQL?  CFX tags?  You may
need to tweak your SQL to run better and also play with the number of
simultaneous request limit in the CFADMIN tool.  What you set this at
depends on what your app does.  I have it set to 10 threads per CPU as my
app is very DB intense.  Others set this to 3-4 per CPU.  Also look at your
request timeout limit.

That's actually a great question.

I've never tested it with CFMX, which is radically different in how it
processes everything (uses JRun, etc...).

I just now tried it, and IE just endlessly tries to open the file, which
leads me to believe that JRun.dll doesn't want to parse it.

Oh well.

RE: Processing .htm files as .cfm

[Tony Weeg]

no it works fine with cfmx, heck I have some .tony files
that are parsed by it, .anything can be parsed by either, its just that
the
setup for both is different. email me off list, if you want instructions
for
cfmx...i had much problems with this, and have got it down to a science
;)

That's actually a great question.

I've never tested it with CFMX, which is radically different in how it
processes everything (uses JRun, etc...).

I just now tried it, and IE just endlessly tries to open the file, which
leads me to believe that JRun.dll doesn't want to parse it.

Oh well.

Then find the cfm extension and copy the Executable Path.

umm... no ...

htmleditformat() converts potentially harmful characters ( <,> " etc ) into
html entities. An html entity is used to place characters in the display of
an html page which aren't supposed to be allowed ( although browsers often
if not usually allow them anyway ) in an html document without being part of
an html tag. htmleditformat(0 is a one-way conversion. You can of course,
unhtmleditformat() a variable manually, however, doing so prevents you from
placing proper html entities in the field since they would likely all be
converted back into the <>" etc which aren't supposed to appear in properly
formatted html documents.


  



myvar = #myvar#
htmleditformat(myvar) = #htmleditformat(myvar)#


since these 2 lines are not the same, and the contents of a textarea field
are passed literally ( they're not translated by the form submission ), the
content of myvar becomes what you see on line 2 after it's been converted
the first time with htmleditformat().

Unless this is a very new feature of CFMX that I've not heard about which
automatically reverts the string after a form submission. Although I would
doubt it considering that this would prevent people being able to enter html
entities into form fields and get html entities on the action page.

Off the top of my head, I'm not sure what's up with your example -- I
haven't tested it on my machine. If it is working, one of two things are
happening -- there's more code involved than in your example ( an
application.cfm maybe ) _or_ there's a bug somewhere, because it's not
supposed to work that way.

No, it doesn't.

Jeez, I use this function every time I have a form element - including
 - and it ALWAYS works properly.

Otherwise, how in God's name are you ever going to be able to edit: Hello
"There"?  You HAVE to escape the quotes in the value attribute of an input
field - or else the tag breaks.

Try it out.  It WORKS.

Subject: RE: Java in CF (CFMX)


Personally, I'd like to see CF Script expanded to deal with strongly typed
code. It would be extremely cool to be able to run code from a different
languages in a cfscript block (kinda' like MS's Scripting Host).

I can see a couple of other benefits to having inline Java code:

Stronger types for variables. (well, stronger types for /values/).
Sometimes it's extremely useful to have strong types. For example, I worked
on using native COM datasets in CF a few years back and we had a lot of
problems converting the native COM dataset into a CF query. was a huge
performance hit for a CF script to loop over each field, convert it, and
stuff it in a CF query. If CF could (optionally) deal with different types I
think it would have been a lot easier to do, and a cfscript block would be a
great place for this. Also, it would be *great* to be able to pass functions
around as values--that alone would certainly simplify my code in places.

One of CF's great benefits is it's simplicity, but sometimes it's
important to be able to get out of the simple tag-based techniques of CF and
into more "advanced" techniques. When I'm developing, sometimes I want to be
able to just dump some code on a page and thrash away. It gets in the way to
have to develop separate components. After I'm done thrashing out some code,
I want to make sure it's clean and maintainable, and put it into components,
though. It's just nice to have the option.

I know basically nothing about the actual behind-the-scenes architecture of
CF, so take this with a grain of salt, but I don't see why CF couldn't just
automatically compile a cfscript block as a separate class if you added a
keyword to it, like: . There is already a lot of
code generation going on when CF creates the class files from a CF page.

Well, just my $0.02...

I am really late to this thread -- been doin' other interesting stuff.

There are one (or two, or forty) reasons that have not been mentioned,
that make inline Java code a benefit.

1) Where needed in an app, you can get strong typing and nulls -- say
you want to communicate with a JDBC driver and retrieve Table/Column
attributes from a db -- most JDBC drivers provide this info, but you
can't get at it directly form CMFX.

2) Where CFMX can act as a gentle introduction to Java -- certainly
this hybrid code would  not be the best, but it would allow Java
neophytes, like myself, to learn Java gracefully, without having to
learn all the rules first.  -- There is something about the fact that
we can learn our native language, better, by the age of 5, than a
person with 4 years of college courses on that language -- simple
introduction, constant use, familiarity-- a lot of us "Learn by Doing!"

3) This would put /keep CF at the head of the pack -- one more
significant reason to choose CF over the competition -- EasyJava --
choose the language/implementation that makes the most sense for an
application and/or a tier.

Dick

P.S.  while I am asking for things, I'd like to see a ...
tag -- does the same thing (and does not deprecate the  tag--
just a lot easier to type (and pretty self-documenting, and makes a lot
more sense than that <%= crap!)

RE: Server Problems When Code is Not Locked (was RE: Application vari ables)

[Douglas.Knudsen]

In my experience, PCode errors were usually the result of not using cflocks where 
needed.  IMHO, you are on the right track moving schtuff to the request scope.  From 
an earlier posting by Mike Brunt, and what  I do in my apps, I'd suggest using 

In Application.cfm





In OnRequestEnd.cfm





The onrequestend bit adds any NEW vars you introduced in the request scope to be added 
to the session scope.  This way you need only use CFLOCK twice in your whole 
application.  Be careful of CFABORT use with this though.  

As for these errors

Check your page 'weight'.  Are you running heavy SQL?  CFX tags?  You may need to 
tweak your SQL to run better and also play with the number of simultaneous request 
limit in the CFADMIN tool.  What you set this at depends on what your app does.  I 
have it set to 10 threads per CPU as my app is very DB intense.  Others set this to 
3-4 per CPU.  Also look at your request timeout limit.
