what is behind the URLSessionFormat function?

2003-06-21 Thread Marc Bauer
hi

i'd like to know - how this URLSessionFormat works in technical deep. someone 
knows about? 

i have telnet'd to the box and executed a page. i cannot see any special things for 
e.g. in the headers or anything else. Javascript isn't used. The Webserver Logfile 
tells 
only about *one* GET request. Therefor there is no redirect or something like this...

how will they find out if cookies are disabled or not???

I would assume it just checks for cookie.cfid and cookie.cftoken. If
they do not exist, the server assumes you don't support cookies.

Re: Is Flash really THAT good?

To a certain extend. But in a traditional application interface, lets 
say an intranet application, the application developer knows much more 
about the visitor. He knows the visitor is on the intranet with 0.4 ms 
latency, using a computer with a 14+ inch screen, a mouse and a keyboard 
so he can design an interface for exactly that situation.
But does that really work when you are delivering an application over 
the internet to the other side of the world and you don't know if the 
guy on the other end is using a PDA or a workstation with a 22 inch screen?

And even then, the problem is not just control, it is also 
predictability. I know how my browser respnds to certain commands, but 
every Flash application can respond differently. I mean, after Mike's 
code example I went to the DevEx to try the Shift-click and 
Control-click expecting them to work because the code looks trivial. But 
it didn't work, and there is no way to see that from the outside.

We don't really take it for granted. If we don't like the buttons of the 
mediaplayer, we skin it. If we think these insanely big buttons of the 
browser take up to much room on our PDA screens, we use a minimalistic 
theme. On our desktop, we all arrange the shortcuts in a different way, 
we use different color scheme's etc.

I don't expect applications to behave like documents. But I expect them 
to copy the best behaviour from documents and combine that with the best 
behaviour of traditional applications.
And in some areas I feel it is actually the web applications that are 
quite limited. I hope you can prove me wrong, but I haven't seen any web 
application that recognizes that I have a laptop that I have customised 
to some high contrast colors because the screen is so lousy. But both 
traditional applications that use the OS color scheme and web documents 
that use my browser colors can easily provide a legible interface. (That 
laptop died, but you get the point.)


I think Flash has reached the point where it can compete with many full 
blown intranet applications (intranet = controlled environment). I think 
Flash can deliver powerfull widgets over the internet (and people will 
often not even notice it is Flash).
I am not so sure if Flash is the answer to deliver full blown 
applications over the internet. I think it is better as the 
applet/activeX options, but it still lacks some of the features of HTML. 
(HTML on the other hand lacks persistence, has implementation issues and 
isn't really interactive.)

You only need 3 variations of the XSL document if you handle the

I personally store it on my computer at home/work, with a cryptic

field and set as a session variable when I'm working with decrypting 
cards. Of course, this makes it impractical to use in a situation

use that card without entering it again. In that case you'd have to 
store the private key on the server and then the whole encryption

It's only spaghetti code if you write it that way. You can write nice 
structured code in CF. ColdFusion MX allows you to write OO-style code 
and frameworks like Fusebox allow for good separation of logic and 
presentation - especially in the forthcoming Fusebox MX framework which 
provides MVC out-of-the-box.

Well, BlueDragon is not "Java Verified" so you can't make that 
statement with certainty. ColdFusion MX on the other hand is "Java 
Verified". I run CFMX for J2EE on Tomcat and JRun locally.

And sometimes you'll need to move your application across different 
platforms - something .NET does not allow (Project Mono is an 
interesting experiment that may or may not provide a realistic way to 
deliver 'cross-platform' .NET applications).

And, of course, COM is being sidelined by Microsoft as they push all 
their developers onto the new platform (.NET) and everyone has to 
rewrite their old ASP and VB apps (and everyone will have to do it all 
over again when Microsoft rolls out their next new platform :)

But that's the browser developer being in control - the behavior you 
describe is specific to the browser you use. In my browser:
apple-click - open in new tab behind current tab
shift-apple-click - open in new tab (in front)
alt-apple-click - open in new window behind current window
shift-alt-apple-click - open in new window (in front)

Yes - which is why each browser behaves differently.

RE: Initial caps regex

Only about 5 months -- ironically, our test box is CFMX, because we've been
trying to migrate.  However, the original migration date was cancelled
because my boss's dad had a heart attack, and when we finally tried to
migrate it (me being in KY, my bosses and the box in FL) it was unsuccessful
and we had to roll back to CF5.

:-(

I'd love to be struggling with CFC's -- I was trained on C/C++ and miss

Or, perhaps more realisitically, specific to amount of control that the
browser developer has offered you.

There's really no reason that well-constructed Flash application can't offer
similar control within itself.  There's definitely an issue of time (would
you do this for a small, one-time applet?) and consistency (will every
developer offer a different set of options/styles?) but there's nothing in
Flash preventing it.

The level of control given to the end user is developer controlled.
Different applications offer different levels.  A productivity app in which
a user spends a lot of time (a word processor, PIM, or a browser) may be
heavily configurable while even a complex game may limit the control offered
to preserve the emotional context of the game.

That being said there is a pretty solid correlation to the amount of time
spent in an application (as a user-base) and the amount of customization
that application provides.  Flash applications generally offer little
customization as much time isn't spent with them.  The Flash developer's
interface on the other hand - LOTS of customization.  ;^)

If you're lucky enough to have a browser that lets you decide what 
combination of shift-option-alt-ctrl-apple-whatever keys to use to get 
which effect. Again, it just reinforces the point that your choices are 
determined by the browser developer - some (many) browsers do not let 
you change that behavior (heck, some browsers don't even provide tabbed 
browsing).

CFC Remote Access

2003-06-21 Thread Greg Luce
Trying my first remote access of a cfc. I have cfc's that work nicely if
invoked from CF, but now I'm trying to call it remotely from Flash. I
read that by default you don't have remote access in subdirectories so I
installed the cfc in my wwwroot. I used the test
http://www1.yoursite.com/flashservices/gateway which gives me a blank
page pointing to the webroot where the cfc is so I believe I have access
there. When I try to hit it I get an error that: "The method 'chart1' in
component C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\charts.cfc cannot be accessed remotely."
Does this mean I am connecting to the cfc, but just that "method" cannot
be accessed remotely?

log4j problem migrating J2SE app

2003-06-21 Thread Dave Jones
Hi All,
I started playing around with moving an existing Tomcat app to 
CFMX, with the intention of exploring the feasibility of 
replacing the JSP pages with CFML.

Anyway, I've successfully invoked some beans and servlets from a 
test CF page. However, my app blows up with an 'Incompatible 
argument to function' when calling a log4j function (getLogger).

The problem appears to be an incompatibility between the version 
of log4j shipped with CFMX and the newer version of log4j (1.2.7) 
used by my app.

To work around this, I've tried:
- adding my log4j.jar to the classpath (CFMX appears to still 
invoke its log4j.jar in /lib)
- replacing the log4j.jar in /lib with the newer log4j.jar (CFMX 
blows up when attempting to access any page, e.g. localhost/CFIDE)

So, it appears that a) the log4j.jar that ships with CFMX is not 
compatible with log4j 1.2.7; and b) that CFMX is dependent upon 
its version of log4j.

Can anyone suggest a solution?

Or is it unreasonable to expect CFMX to support existing Java 
apps? I was hoping to be able to tell my Java clients that 
migrating to CFMX would be a relatively painless way of gaining 
the benefits of CF on the front-end while retaining the strengths 
of Java on the back-end. If existing Java apps have to be 
rewritten for the CFMX environment, much of the perceived benefits go away.

Thanks,
Dave Jones

Make sure you set access="remote" on any methods that you wish to access
from your flash app.

Also, you can access cfc's in subdirs. You have to use dot syntax to get to
them.

Like if you had a dir called cfc in the webroot, then another dir inside cfc
named foo and a cfc name bar, you would get to it like this:
cfc.foo.bar

What you've got here are two Java applications running on the same JVM 
that require different versions of the same library - and the library 
itself has changed its API. If you're going to point a finger of blame 
at some component of this, you could reasonably pick the library 
(log4j) for breaking the contract (API) it had with its users.

> Or is it unreasonable to expect CFMX to support existing Java

A lot of Java apps will work just fine with CFMX - library vendors 
shouldn't change APIs in incompatible ways (and they generally don't).

> If existing Java apps have to be
> rewritten for the CFMX environment, much of the perceived benefits go 
> away.

Your Java app would need to be "rewritten" if you moved it to any 
environment where you had a different version of log4j. Here's what it 
says on the log4j page:

"Version 1.2 is the 22nd major public release of log4j. All changes 
except the removal of deprecated methods are backward compatible such 
that log4j 1.2 can be considered a drop in replacement for log4j 1.1.3. 
The only exception is the renaming of the CategoryFactory class to 
LoggerFactory class such that subclasses of Category class must be 
modified and recompiled. The recommended pattern for 
extending the Logger class is wrapping. Moreover, we strongly 
discourage casual users from subclassing the Category or Logger 
   classes."

You can see from this that they have introduced two types of 
incompatibility:
- removing deprecated methods (breaking code that relied on them)
- renaming a class (breaking code that uses that class or the Category 
class)

CFMX uses 1.1.3. The log4j site has that version available so you could 
download it and recompile your code against that version (you may or 
may not need to make code changes).

Re: log4j problem migrating J2SE app

2003-06-21 Thread Dave Jones
Sean,
Thanks for the response. I didn't mean to imply that CFMX had 
done anything wrong. I'm well aware that issues with .jar 
versioning is a familiar frustration in the Java world.

I had hoped that someone with a more intimate knowledge of CFMX 
internals could suggest a solution that didn't involved reworking my code.

Plus, it seems to me that if I do rework the code to comply with 
log4j 1.1.3, when the next version of CFMX comes out with a newer 
version of log4j, my code breaks again.

Plus, while in this case the problem was log4j changing its API, 
it's not inconceivable that other shared libraries may have a 
similar problem, now or in the future. It seems unrealistic that 
developers must be tied to the versions of libraries shipped with 
CFMX. I think a better solution would be a means by which an 
application can be defined such that its libraries take 
precedence over the ones shipped with CFMX (which of course is 
possible with standalone engines). Or is this possible now with 
CFMX and I'm overlooking it?

Thanks,
Dave Jones

Correct. And, as I'm trying to show, CFMX is just another Java app that 
you're running on the same engine as your existing app. Let's just 
suppose CFMX didn't use log4j (or used a compatible version) and so you 
could run your existing app alongside. Now suppose you have a third app 
you want to run alongside the first two (CFMX + your app) and it 
required a different version of log4j - you'd be back in the same 
situation.

> It seems unrealistic that

I think that's a Java problem and it will happen whenever you try to 
run two Java apps that require incompatible versions of the shared 
libraries. Unfortunately, I don't know of any obvious or easy solutions 
- if CFMX looks for org.apache.log4j and your app also looks for 
org.apache.log4j, since they're both running on the same J2EE system, 
they'll both find the same library... and only one of them will like 
what they find.

One possibility on JRun would be to define separate server instances 
for CFMX and for your app and run them in their own memory spaces with 
completely separate libraries etc. Of course, when you want to replace 
your JSP code with CFML, the CFML will have to live on CFMX's instance 
so it'll have to remotely access the Java entities on the other server 
instance that still rely on the other version of log4j.

I'm just not sure how you'd do that in Java.

RE: CFC Remote Access

2003-06-21 Thread Greg Luce
Thanks Clint and Dave. Both things help. I can access the cfc if I put
it in the wwwroot, but still not when it's in a subdirectory. And for
some crazy reason, the cfc throws a database error when I try to run it
from the wwwroot.

I found some documentation on Enabling Flash Remoting for all sites on a
server.
http://www.macromedia.com/support/coldfusion/ts/documents/tn18307.htm#en
abling It says that by default when you install CFMX it gives you
permission to access cfcs in the root, but that's it. 

"Although the installation does not configure virtual sites, ColdFusion
MX pages will run because certain default settings are assigned to the
Master Properties sheet. But, because JRunScripts virtual directories
are not created for virtual sites at install and also because virtual
sites cannot access the JRun Connector ISAPI filter, Flash Remoting
service is limited to the Default website."

This makes sense. When I do the test
http://www1.yoursite.com/flashservices/gateway I get a blank page (which
is correct) and when I try
http://www1.yoursite.com/jhg/misc/flashservices/gateway I get a 404
error (which means you don't have access). The notes say to:

"1. Stop the World Wide Web Publishing Service. 
2. Run the cf_root\bin\connectors\Remove_ALL_connectors.bat to remove
the existing ISAPI filter.* 
3. Run the cf_root\bin\connectors\IIS_connectors.bat to properly
configure all existing sites. 
4. Start the World Wide Web Publishing Service."

When I run "Remove_All_connectors.bat" it initializes in a cmd prompt
and says "This will remove all CFMX Webserver Connectors. Press any key
to continue. When I hit any key it says: "The system cannot find the
path specified. Press any key to continue". I hit another key and the
command line window closes. I don't think it completed it's mission, but
if I then try IIS_connector.bat it does a bunch of stuff and then says
"This Webserver is already configured for JRUN".

Should it be so hard to remotely access a cfc that's not in the webroot?

TIA

I've been thinking about doing something with one of those USB thumb drives - I don't 
know about the rest of the world but here in Australia you can now get the smallest 
(64MB, USB2) for around 20 bucks. Seems to me like a nice way of doing it - tell the 
client that when they're finished, they should unplug the "key" and put it back in the 
locked drawer or filing cabinet or whatever. We're even thinking of writing some kind 
of little Windows utility on it that pastes the key (stored on the drive) into the 
clipboard or even looks for the form field in the browser window. Just to cut out a 
step for the less-than-savvy client - and we all have *at least* one of those :)

Anyway, I don't keep up with CFTALK as much as I'd like these days, but I work for 
PerthWeb, developers of cardcrypt and textcrypt. We also have a Windows-based 
decryption utility now, so you can encrypt the credit card number and email it to our 
client for manual processing if they don't have real-time processing (and you don't 
want to mess with PGP licensing). If anyone has any questions about any of our 
encryption products, please email me directly ([EMAIL PROTECTED]).

That's not how the gateway works - it remains in the same location at all

NetServices.setDefaultGatewayURL("http://www.foo.com/flashservices/gateway";)
;
conn = NetServices.createGatewayConnection();
testService = conn.getService("cfc.test", this);
testService.doSomeMethod();

This is a strange one. Are you running Updater 3? What web server? How many
sites are configured on it? (sorry if you posted this stuff already...)

Storing Credit Card Info

2003-06-21 Thread Stan Winchester
Kay,

Isn’t technology great! I think the USB thumb drive is a wonderful idea! If you could 
make a Windows utility and make using cfx_textcrypt / cfx_cardcrypt a turn key 
process, then that is even better! When I first asked my question about if there was a 
“best practice” to store/implement the private key for cfx_textcrypt, I had no idea I 
would get this kind of input. I am really impressed with the CF-Talk community, and 
the way everyone pulls together to help each other. 

Thank you to all CF-Talkers,
Stan Winchester
