RE: Anyone using Jakarta Struts for cfmx?

2003-07-14 Thread Mike Brunt
I think to differentiate it from Fusebox 4 for Procedural coding (the next
logical step from Fusebox 3.0).  I understand that but I think it will take
a little time for Mach-II to gain a relative name recognition momentum to
equal Fusebox (the name recognition that is).

Can anyone recommend a good bulk CFML encrypt or? I've tried a few as
"trial" versions and they both choke out on my directory of 77 CFML

Anyone have any recommendations or is the best way to do it one at a

RE: Anyone using Jakarta Struts for cfmx?

Jakarta Struts Config Mappings are not all that Hard to understand. You can
take a peek into CFMX/JRun xml mappings.. they are fairly straight forward.

I dont think you can use Struts as is in CFMX but yes.. borrow some good
ideas.
e.g.

 


Dynamically execute CFC methods..
dataClass = Your CFC (MyDataClass)
method = getAboutUs
var Type returned = struct
var Name = variables.aboutUs (Controller dynamically executes this for you)

The mappings are parsed once into application scope.

Re: iframe & form javascript

2003-07-14 Thread S . Isaac Dealey
You're missing single quotes in your onclick event... try this:

onClick="top.mainFrameSet.main.document.frmAddItem.Image.value='#jsstringformat(subDir 
& name)#';"

I _think_ javascript should be graceful enough to allow you to have Image as the name 
of that field... never name a form field "name" "action" or "target" -- this will 
prevent js code from accessing the form's name, action or target attributes... they 
are case-sensitive, however, so "NAME" is fine if confusing. :)

Try wrapping the variable with the CF Function jsstringformat()

My bet is that the / or \ characters in the path are making trouble for
you.

I havent looked deep into Fusebox MX, its still in beta. Honestly,
didnt quite understand the whole idea of Circuits/Parsed files etc.

I would rather just use a base Controller/Parser and multiple
Controller helpers.. alot like Jakarta Struts.. Minus some of
the Complexity in Struts.

Yes, you should recommend separate servers for each. There are many reasons
for this, as others have mentioned. Security is a big one; not so much
because a database server is inherently more secure than a web server (each
is only as secure as you make it), but rather because you needn't expose the
database server to external access at all - it only needs to be accessible
from the web server, as well as any legitimate users within the firewall.

Performance is another big issue, especially on Windows; most significant
services require a dedicated Windows machine. Finally, stability is an
issue; like it or not, web servers tend to be less stable than database
servers, and you want to avoid stability problems on your database server -
it might be a little more susceptible to problems if it's unstable than a
web server would be.

> Does protocol dictate the creation of a user account 
> specifically for the CF server to establish a secure 
> connection to the DB Server?

This is more a matter of how database servers work than the fact that you
want to run them on separate machines. Typically, database servers require
logins, while file-based databases like Access often do not. A single SQL
Server may contain many individual databases, and each may have its own
logins. So, you might not end up with a single SQL login specifically for
your database, but might end up with one per datasource instead. As for the
security of the connection between the web server and the database, that's
more a matter of encrypting the connection than one concerning specific
logins - every login will require authentication regardless of whether you
encrypt the connection.

> Will the separation prohibit me from using things like 
> FileExists?

You won't be able to use it to test for the existence of files on the
database server. However, you won't need to, typically. Keep in mind that
SQL Server databases are quite a bit different from Access databases - when
you use SQL Server, you don't deal with files directly at all.

> Will I need Administrative rights on BOTH machines?
 
Only if you'll be completely responsible for both machines. If you have a
DBA, she'll be able to create databases and logins for you, and allot the
necessary rights to you for specific SQL logins. In that case, you may have
no actual OS rights to the database server at all!

No, I think that's a pretty safe bet. However, one of the nice things about
client-server systems like CF & SQL Server is that, even if down the road
they decide they'd like to port the whole thing to ASP.NET or whatever, they
can do that without changing their database structure. If you spend the time
to encapsulate your database logic in stored procedures, building multiple
interfaces is even easier. So, that gives you two angles to play - you can
argue that CF is easier, but that you're not backed into a corner if you
change your mind later. Admittedly, you might have a decent amount of
business logic wrapped up in your CF code, so it might not be a trivial
thing to do, but it'll certainly be possible.

If CF is run under a user account (which has rights for the resource) then
you can use UNC paths or mapped drives  with FileExists() to check other
machines.

That'll be hard to find... everybody has some bias.  For example my company
went to IBM consulting services to get an "unbiased, objective" opinion of
their needs.  The results?  IBM WebSphere on IBM AIX. ;^)

At the same time however with the release of CFMX for WebSphere IBM has some
very nice things to say about CF:

Perfect Hardware Arrangement? Perhaps OT?

2003-07-14 Thread Tim Claremont
My inclination to go with two servers also has to do with the fact that the IT 
department wants to "own" the data, and they don't want a brand new employee like me 
having admin access, etc. etc.

They also say that they WILL allow me to run an IIS/CF server, but it will be 
unsupported by them. Hence, I am trying to appease both camps by keeping the 
"non-standard" IIS/CF server on one box and highly valuable data itself on the 
"supported and politically correct" other server.

With the split approach I think I can satisfy virtually every possible objection they 
may have to my proposal.

As you all know, the technical work is easy compared to the beareaucratic hurdles you 
have to jump through.

Bottom line, I am trying to make a bulletproof proposal that satisfies both data 
demands AND policy demands. Such is life as a developer.

As Tony pointed out you can run both on one system without any trouble;
especially on a small business intranet (I assume we're talking small
given Access being the db backbone).

If the budget is there, by all means go for two servers.

And speaking of budget, if that's an issue consider using mySQL.  Couple
that to a graphical front end like mysqlfront or sqlyog and arguably you
have everything a small business intranet would need for thousands of
dollars less, thanks to the lack of db licensing costs.

non-compete it isn't binding on you as you were not a party to the

Subject: OT: approaching clients of (former) employer


Hi,

Just wondered if any of the people here a bit wiser to the ways of the 
industry and legal matters could give us their opinion on a slightly
sticky 
situation that's cropped up for us. We'd really appreciate any advice.
I'll 
say upfront that we're UK-based, so I'm not sure if any legal issues are

UK-specific.

The short version of the long story is that myself and a friend, who
offer 
our freelance web services under the name Tengai, used to do a lot of
work 
as sub-contractors for (let's say) Company A. The work (all based on 
ColdFusion) was all done without any written contracts, and all seemed
well 
until (don't sneer!) they went belly up owing us money.

Their client list was bought by (let's say) Company B. We vaguely 
considered leaping in and trying to poach the clients in the transfer,
but 
accepted that despite there being no written contracts, it was
unethical, 
and played the game. We met with Company B, they seemed a bit more 
organised than Company A, and said that while their own in-house stuff
was 
all based on ASP and MS technologies, they'd probably continue the 
relationship with us as sub-contractors to do the CF work.

We did a few little jobs through them in the first months, but near the 
beginning of this year everything went quiet. As far as we were aware,
the 
clients were just backing away from the hiked-up prices that Company B
were 
putting through to them.

So recently, with times being tough, we've come back round to idea of 
approaching these clients directly. We've not had any work from Company
B 
for nearly 6 months, so we see the sub-contractor relationship as 
effectively lapsed.

However, we decide to be upfront and honest about it, and inform Company
B 
of our intentions. They come back and let us know that we shouldn't 
approach these companies as they're now valuable clients of theirs
and... 
wouldn't you know it... they're in the process of persuading them to 
migrate to ASP and MS-based technologies.

Of course, they think we're being unethical. Even though they concede
that 
they don't really have work for us, they say we're using information 
(contact info for the clients) that is priveleged and binds us to the 
sub-contractor relationship. To us, though, we would have this
information, 
having been the cornerstones of all the work done for the clients via 
Company A during 2000 - 2002. Company B surely can't hold us to a 
sub-contractor relationship when they're not giving us any work, and
don't 
pretend to have any for us now - especially since there's never been 
anything but verbal agreements.

In our view, they've been less than ethical in giving the impression of
an 
on-going relationship, of us doing their new CF-based clients'
development 
work, but - without telling us - pushing them towards their own ASP 
environment.

Naturally the client should get what's best for them and not be the
victim 
(again) of their developers mucking them around (as Company A did).
We're 
fine with these clients deciding they're best with Company B, we just
think 
that all the cards should be on the table. Only, Company B have said
that 
if we approach any clients and any of them decide to go with us, they'll

take legal advice.

Has anyone been in this situation or something similar? Any views?

many thanks,

Gyrus

the applications I have used FileExists on will not work correctly because the files I

1 cfmx and 1 mssql 2000 adv. server

cf as a developer base is VERY strong from what i can tell.  macromedia
is really supporting, developing and continuing to grow what most on

eat, sleep and dream!!  believe you me...you can tell your bosses to

this group especially here on cftalk is hands down, the creme de la

just one more thing, there are plenty of cf'ers on here that will gladly

if the server is intranet only, and not for use
outside your local network, then its not a security

want a single point of failure...first of all.  secondly
if you can only have 2 machines, then separate them...it wont
kill you though to have both on the same machine, my laptop
with 512mb ram and only 813mhz p3, with sql server 2000, cfmx red
sky beta, and a host of apps running on it...does fine, and
serves up pages very fast...so, you can have both on one machine
its just "nicer" that they be separate...

there are myriad options when it comes to the network/server layout 
that would work here...its a budgetary more than anything, i could
dream up a nice cfmx/mssql/iis configuration that would be well over 20k
but, i could also do it with a refurbed laptop, that i happen to have
now, for a small bit of cash...so, what i was trying to get at...its
all about the benji's!!

good luck...and if you decide to leave or give up the contract :) jk

My employer currently has the typical data management scenario of six or

I am in the midst of drawing up a proposal that involves moving all of
the data to a truly relational SQL Server environment. I will then
develop the user interface in ColdFusion. Note this is strictly an
intranet application.
 
My question has to do with the theories behind separating the web server

recommend a separate server for each? What is the rationale? I presume
it has to do with the relatively poor security of a web server vs the
much improved security of a database server? (note: WIN2K Server/SQL
Server)
 
All of my ColdFusion development to date has been with the database on
the web sever. What connectivity issues am I facing with a separation?
Does protocol dictate the creation of a user account specifically for
the CF server to establish a secure connection to the DB Server? Will
the separation prohibit me from using things like FileExists? Will I
need Administrative rights on BOTH machines?
 
Also, can someone direct me to an write up about ColdFusion that is
directed toward non-technical people? I need to "sell" ColdFusion to
management and want to read some other people's "explanations" to round

You see, managment is concerned that if I leave the company they will be

argument is that CF is so intuitive that finding a person capable of

Often it's security and access: in most companies separate teams manage the
DB server than manage the Web servers.  Also data, being more valuable, is
often protected by stricter firewalls and physical access policies.

However in a practical sense there's a lot more that that.  Off th top of my
head:

1) Performance.  It's a huge issue.  Both SQL Server (or any enterprise DB)
and CF are "king of the hill" apps: they expect to be "top dog" on the box.
They suck up resources fast and are slow to release them.

2) Scalability.  It's much harder to scale applications when all the
components are on a single box.  With separation you get freedom: you can
add another web server or upgrade the one you have without touching the DB
for example.

3) Applicability.  A companies data is valuable to many people, in many
ways.  A database may be accessed by a web front end, custom client-side
tools, reporting software, etc.  In general you should not tie your DB to
specific interfaces.

You'll not be facing any serious issues.  You can create a user account for
the CF box (this will allow you to better manage access and diagnose
problems) or you can not (I think you should, but there's no technical
reason you have to).

I'm not sure how "FileExists()" comes into things?  It will still work on
the web server box of course.

Administrative rights are more a question for your organization.  AN
administrator (it doesn't have to be YOU -- unless it does have to be you)
needs to configure both boxes.  For SQL Server this means setting up
security permissions and managing things like logs and such.

You could set it up so that your CF user has complete control or you can
just leave open a small window for selecting data - the specifics are up to
you.

If I ever CFAdvocacy.org of the ground you'd have it... ah well.

You should check Macromedia.com first - they have some of this information.
If you like I would also be happy to act as a "reference" for
CF-with-SQL-server (I work for a very large company).  I'm sure several
others on the list would also be happy to as well.  Contact me off list if
you'd like my contact information.

Not at all.  There is a thriving CF market and plenty of people to hire.

Perfect Hardware Arrangement? Perhaps OT?

2003-07-14 Thread Claremont, Timothy
My employer currently has the typical data management scenario of six or seven Access 
databases that don't talk to each other, etc. etc. etc. You all know the drill!
 
I am in the midst of drawing up a proposal that involves moving all of the data to a 
truly relational SQL Server environment. I will then develop the user interface in 
ColdFusion. Note this is strictly an intranet application.
 
My question has to do with the theories behind separating the web server from the 
database server. As I write up this proposal, should I recommend a separate server for 
each? What is the rationale? I presume it has to do with the relatively poor security 
of a web server vs the much improved security of a database server? (note: WIN2K 
Server/SQL Server)
 
All of my ColdFusion development to date has been with the database on the web sever. 
What connectivity issues am I facing with a separation? Does protocol dictate the 
creation of a user account specifically for the CF server to establish a secure 
connection to the DB Server? Will the separation prohibit me from using things like 
FileExists? Will I need Administrative rights on BOTH machines?
 
Also, can someone direct me to an write up about ColdFusion that is directed toward 
non-technical people? I need to "sell" ColdFusion to management and want to read some 
other people's "explanations" to round out my sales pitch.
 
You see, managment is concerned that if I leave the company they will be left high and 
dry with a "non-standard" ColdFusion environment. My argument is that CF is so 
intuitive that finding a person capable of maintaining a CF application will probably 
be easier than a comparable ASP or PHP approach. Am I off base?
 
If you are of the opinion that this type of subject matter is out of the scope of this 
list, please feel free to correspond via email if you feel you want to help me 
understand this.

CFAbort in CFScript?

2003-07-14 Thread Shawn Grover
I think this is a stupid question, but is there any way to end processing of
a CF page from within CFScript similar to a CFAbort.

I know CFAbort is a tag, and tags can't be used in cfscript.  However, there
have been so many other improvements to CF with the MX release that I
wouldn't be surprised if there is a method to do this.  Thus far, I have not
found a way to do so, which means I have to set an abort flag within the
cfscript block, then check this flag and abort when I close the block.  This
isn't too much of a problem to do, but I'm curious if there's a way to put
the exit command where it makes the most sense.  

Thanks for any responses.

Re: Anyone using Jakarta Struts for cfmx?

2003-07-14 Thread Joe Eugene
I have used alot of Concepts from Jakarta Structs as MVC for recent
application.
It worked very well, with a very high level of code management. Begining
with
file structure

index.cfm is the only exposed page of the applicaiton.
application.xml for application level control/instantiation

system/model/data -- contains data objects
system/model/logic -- logic controls
system/model/validator -- validation controls for forms etc

system/controller -- controller files
system/view -- all view sub-components or pages.

controller.xml for flow control and method execution mappings.. similar to
whats
done in Jakarta Struts except ...*.cfc used here. All method mappings are
executed
dynamically and variables in the xml mapping get the result or set values in
variables scope. View Components do NOT touch high level scope variables
like
client/session/application.

I have been quite happy with the Model.. Once the model is written.. all you
do is
write your data layer methods and view pages.. and you are done.. The
controller does
the rest of the job.

> Ease of development and organization
Heavy resistance from other CF Developers at first.. but then some started
to realize
the benefits... Others are hung on the Fusebox 3 Case Style.

If you are really excited about developing some class applications and tight
coding... it becomes very hard
to work with developers who arent looking to improve.. but just get the
project done...

The zero-byte problem is a .cfmail file with a total file length of zero, not a body 
of zero.  Are you saying an empty message body triggers a zero-length .cfmail file?

RE: Dynamic CFC function call

2003-07-14 Thread Raymond Camden
Just be careful. When mycfc calls url.function, it will call it as an
"insider", so you would be able to call methods even if access=private.
If you do this, I'd suggest using metadata to check the function access,
or perhaps only allowing people to call functions that begin with api,
ie

mycfc.execute("apiYourMamaWearsCombatBoots");

Why not have the function logic in the cfc as well?

mycfc.execute(url.function)

where execute() looks at the value pass, executes the necessary method
and returns back the result.

Maybe it's just me, but mycfc.#url.function#(); would seem to be the
antithesis of self-documenting...

RE: video formats & streaming

2003-07-14 Thread Michael C. Jackson
Depends on what sort of bandwidth you are expecting, and if you
absolutely need to prevent someone from downloading the stream.

The latter is virtually impossible with most formats - MPEG, QuickTime
.MOV's, and even RM in some applications are generally downloadable.
Given enough effort, almost any of them are, but those are the easiest.

I know a lot of people have had luck using the flash communications
server for applications that are bandwidth intensive, and I believe -
although I am not 100% sure - that you can't just mine the browser cache
and snag the video from there.

Of course, that's an entirely different budget than using real server or
simply embedding an mpeg.

The simple fact is that you probably aren't going to find some sort of
un-downloadable video format that does not require specific server
software, or some specific plug-in for the client side.

Re: Anyone using Jakarta Struts for cfmx?

2003-07-14 Thread John Paul Ashenfelter
> Here is an article on using Struts with in CFMX:
>
> http://www.macromedia.com/devnet/mx/coldfusion/articles/struts.html

Yeah, I've seen that. CFCs as a model instead of JavaBeans, EJB, etc and
baking CFML business logic into CFM pages in the View instead of JSP. How is
either of those things a truly useful idea?

And you'd have to work the CF pages really hard to get the benefits of the
inherent Struts framework (eg the validator). Whoopee, I can mix a few cfm
tags into the JSP taglibs I'm already using. And can dig under the covers to
Java from CF to manipulate the stuff that's truly important. Why add the
overhead?

There's not a lot that CF offers that's not already in a taglib now -- not a
knock against CF, just a fact. The only advantage is that it "transitions"
your developers to Java. I'd say take the pain and learn Java -- non-trivial
Struts apps are not easy. Building your own custom tag libs is not real easy
if you don't know Java. Architecting the struts-config takes some work.
Deploying can be a royal pain.

If you want your developers to learn Java, give them the resources and have
them learn Java. If you want to stick with CF, there's FB4 and Mach-II
frameworks in active development. I'm a big fan of the Agile family of
development methodologies and mixing Struts and CFMX seems like a backwards
step for the development process, not a forward one. Having worked on 4
migration projects involving CF programmers transitioning to Struts, I can't
recommend it. Teach them Java and Struts. Or don't use Java on that project.

Re: CFMX MAIL

2003-07-14 Thread Doug White
Zero Byte mail still is a problem.  You must build in error traps to catch these
before adding them to the mail queue.  As for throughput, your bandwidth is
going to play a large part in transmitting that much email volume.  Secondary
will be the mail server capabilities.

OT: UPS and CF

2003-07-14 Thread Bryan Stevenson
Hey All,

I know we have some folks on this list that have some extensive experience
integrating with UPSso hopefully I can get some info.

The big one I'm unsure of at the moment is how to either get the tracking
number of  a package into non-UPS system database (or DB), or give the
e-mail address for the order to UPS (this is in order to send the customer
the tracking number).

Does UPS have some sort of of interface that lets you pass order specific
details through so the customer gets the tracking number via e-mail?

Any insight or time savers would be great (seem to recall someone from
Tropical Web having some lengthy dealings with UPS and a custom CF tag)

TIA

Is there any way to assign a value to a function using cf4.5 and cfscript?
Please see original post below.

RE: Anyone using Jakarta Struts for cfmx?

2003-07-14 Thread Reilly, James
Here is an article on using Struts with in CFMX:

http://www.macromedia.com/devnet/mx/coldfusion/articles/struts.html


I have not used it with in CFMX for J2EE, but just in JRun:
http://www.macromedia.com/support/jrun/ts/documents/tn18297.htm
Note: The installation in this article is ok, but the directions for
the "Simple Struts App" is lacking.

Having done a couple Struts projects, you need a couple of good Java folks
to help wade through implementing Struts. I'd look at Fusebox (3 or 4, not
MX nee Mach-II) if you're looking for a plug and play framework *for
ColdFusion*. Struts has many more built in features (eg the validator) but
is a lot more complicated. For our small CF5 to Struts migration project
(roughly 30k lines of CF code), the struts-config file was something like
2800 lines (of course now you can distribute the Struts config files, but
not at that time).

If you're using CFMX for J2EE, you could consider doing some apps in Struts,
some in CFMX, but I don't see a lot of advantage to mixing them in the same
app -- I think it will be pretty complicated and not sure what value it
gives you.

CFCHART help, please

2003-07-14 Thread Kennerly, Rick H CIV
on a bar chart I have scale from 1-6.  However, CFCHART persists in dividing
the chart scale into 10 equal parts, so if I set the scale from/scale to to
0 & 6 (or 1 & 6) I end up with numbers like .667, 1.333, 2, 2.673 etc for
the divisions.  This is most unsightly.  Is there a work around?  Am I
missing something?

RE: FireFly vs DRK

2003-07-14 Thread Kronenberger, Douglas
Getting information in and out of a database. I need a grid control that can
be filtered by criteria the user selects (Division, Office, Project, etc.). 

I also have a dropdown that content is dependant on what's selected in
another dropdown. After figuring out I needed to write the cf script to
write the jscript to create the arrays I need to populate the dropdown I
started wondering how hard it would be to learn flash remoting.

It seems it might be easier to get the most stuff from the server up front
keep the data in arrays in flash and not have to go back to the server so
often.

I'm just doing some Hello World type stuff with remoting now. I know very
little about Flash.  I stayed away from flash 'cause it didn't look all that
useful. I started doing some reading on flash remoting and it looks pretty
sweet.

FireFly and the DRK's looked to fill similar purposes and I really couldn't
find any specifics on what was included with FireFly. Just wondering if it
was repackaging of the same material.

Re: OT: approaching clients of (former) employer

2003-07-14 Thread Jim Campbell
Go after them, and be rapacious about it.  Don't tip your hand to 
Company B - naturally they want to dissuade you from trying to wrest 
their clients away, but such is the free market.  Though I'm in the 
States, and am not familiar with UK business law, I don't imagine you 
can't use your leverage as an experienced developer in the technology 
the client's already made a significant investment in as a selling point 
for your services. 

If you provide a service the client sees as not only of high value in 
the present, but also a flexible, reliable solution for future 
endeavors, they're free to choose to work with you over anyone else.  If 
Company B persuades them to go with ASP or .NET or whatever they're 
pushing, then that's how the cards fall, but for goodness sakes, don't 
let them go without a fight.  Good luck.

RE: approaching clients of (former) employer

2003-07-14 Thread Mosh Teitelbaum
So first, standard disclaimer... IANAL so take this with one helluva grain
of salt.  Also, I can only speak of experience in the US, a society which is
quite a bit more litigious than, um, everyone else.

That said, what I have to say is probably not what you want to hear.  The
short of it is that, even though you never signed anything with Company A,
you accepted their money.  While this is not a true contract, it is very
nearly one and could be argued in court that it provides for a contractual
relationship.

The real question, disregarding ethics, is what the terms of the contract
were between Company A and Company B.  Did they just buy the client list,
all rights that Company A can infer about those clients, the entire company,
etc.?  I suspect the answer to this question would greatly impact your
ability to legally contact these clients.

Also, I'm assuming that you did work for some of the same clients under
Company B as under Company A.  If so, than the almost-a-contract stuff
applies here as well.  But maybe only to those clients that you worked for
while under Company B.

Also, while Company B might have legal ground to keep you from calling the
clients, there's nothing that would stop the clients from calling you.
Especially since your "contract" doesn't include a non-compete along those
lines.

Of course, all of the above ignores the question of ethics.  Unfortunately,
while the notion of making sure the clients know all of the facts before
being pushed towards ASP is a noble one, it is also none of your concern as,
technically, they were never *YOUR* clients.  Even if you worked directly
with them, you did so under the auspices of Companies A & B.

Anyway, I hope my rambling is of some help.  I hope it all works out for
you.

RE: OT: approaching clients of (former) employer

2003-07-14 Thread John Wilker
Yeah I would agree. Companies poach other companies clients all the time
anyway, and having no documented agreements you are fine. The clients are
likely being dazzled with the "Why you should ditch your investnment and
start over" speach so you should come in with the "safe time money and keep
what you have and pay less for development." speach.

Good luck

I would say not only market the clients, but aggressively market them.

It sounds like you would be doing the clients a good turn. Allow them to
capitalize on existing investment and even save some money (it sounds like
your prices are lower).

Explain the situation as part of your pitch, making sure you show them how
they can benefit from the relationship.

And make it clear that the previous company going out of business has
nothing to do with your company's health and longevity.

If not, send the list to the list, and I'm sure they'll get plenty of CF

Hi,

Just wondered if any of the people here a bit wiser to the ways of the 
industry and legal matters could give us their opinion on a slightly sticky 
situation that's cropped up for us. We'd really appreciate any advice. I'll 
say upfront that we're UK-based, so I'm not sure if any legal issues are 
UK-specific.

The short version of the long story is that myself and a friend, who offer 
our freelance web services under the name Tengai, used to do a lot of work 
as sub-contractors for (let's say) Company A. The work (all based on 
ColdFusion) was all done without any written contracts, and all seemed well 
until (don't sneer!) they went belly up owing us money.

Their client list was bought by (let's say) Company B. We vaguely 
considered leaping in and trying to poach the clients in the transfer, but 
accepted that despite there being no written contracts, it was unethical, 
and played the game. We met with Company B, they seemed a bit more 
organised than Company A, and said that while their own in-house stuff was 
all based on ASP and MS technologies, they'd probably continue the 
relationship with us as sub-contractors to do the CF work.

We did a few little jobs through them in the first months, but near the 
beginning of this year everything went quiet. As far as we were aware, the 
clients were just backing away from the hiked-up prices that Company B were 
putting through to them.

So recently, with times being tough, we've come back round to idea of 
approaching these clients directly. We've not had any work from Company B 
for nearly 6 months, so we see the sub-contractor relationship as 
effectively lapsed.

However, we decide to be upfront and honest about it, and inform Company B 
of our intentions. They come back and let us know that we shouldn't 
approach these companies as they're now valuable clients of theirs and... 
wouldn't you know it... they're in the process of persuading them to 
migrate to ASP and MS-based technologies.

Of course, they think we're being unethical. Even though they concede that 
they don't really have work for us, they say we're using information 
(contact info for the clients) that is priveleged and binds us to the 
sub-contractor relationship. To us, though, we would have this information, 
having been the cornerstones of all the work done for the clients via 
Company A during 2000 - 2002. Company B surely can't hold us to a 
sub-contractor relationship when they're not giving us any work, and don't 
pretend to have any for us now - especially since there's never been 
anything but verbal agreements.

In our view, they've been less than ethical in giving the impression of an 
on-going relationship, of us doing their new CF-based clients' development 
work, but - without telling us - pushing them towards their own ASP 
environment.

Naturally the client should get what's best for them and not be the victim 
(again) of their developers mucking them around (as Company A did). We're 
fine with these clients deciding they're best with Company B, we just think 
that all the cards should be on the table. Only, Company B have said that 
if we approach any clients and any of them decide to go with us, they'll 
take legal advice.

Has anyone been in this situation or something similar? Any views?

many thanks,

Gyrus

Hi,

Have an interesting problem. I'm using Encrypt() to store sensitive user
data in SQL Server. On some strings, the function is encrypting with a
single quote as one of the chars. This is causing a SQL error when I'm
trying to either enter or retrieve the data with cfquery.

Has anyone run across this problem? Can anyone offer a workaround?

The problem is that when you connect to a datasource, it only makes the
connectors, you have to know the name of the database, and all fields
within that database

You'd expect that something made this recently for connectivity to CF
would have drop-downs for this information, but they don't

If you can put up with entering in the information by hand (or
copy/paste), then it's fine, otherwise it's a lot of work, and hopeing
you that you get the information correct

For me, this is a BIG issue in usability, and it's meant to be "fixed"
in the next release

Whenever you do one of those timeless lapses of logic that creates an

Anyway, you stop the page processing from your browser with the stop

somebody finally gets fed up with the hit in performance and restarts

It was on this list, a while back. "Structs in CFMX - Java" was the 
subject line, as far as I can recall.

Yes.

> Why would the two versions produce such drastically different results?

As someone else pointed out, CFMX is a complete rewrite in Java - CF5 
(and earlier versions) were written in C++.

CFMX compiles CFML to bytecode (technically CFMX compiles CFML to Java 
source code and then uses a Java compiler to compile the generated Java 
source code to .class bytecode; Red Sky improves on this process - 
'how' is currently under NDA), and the bytecode is executed by the JVM 
(and, likely, compiled to machine code by the JIT - Just-In-Time - 
compiler).

Earlier versions of CF turned the CFML into an intermediate code which 
was then interpreted by CF. Parsing - reading source code and 
'understanding' it - is generally a slow process which is which most 
interpreters convert source code to some intermediate form.

Since the two processes are (radically) different, the relative speed 
of many constructs will differ between CFMX and earlier versions - some 
may be slower, others faster.

My Coding Guidelines document has a few performance-related hints & 
tips - with the caveat that "These techniques were true for CF4.5.1 
SP2. Some have been tested under CFMX(these are noted) but most 
have not. [TBD: yet!] For the most part they are only important for 
very performance-sensitive code such as frequently called tags." When I 
release the next version of the guidelines (this summer), this section 
will have been completely overhauled.

Another caveat: don't optimize unless you know you have a performance 
problem; don't optimize unless you have measured performance and 
located a bottleneck; don't optimize code unless you've already 
optimized your architecture and algorithms! (Spot a pattern here?) 
Write clean, simple code - the compiler is often better at speeding it 
up than you are!

RE: Endless Loops

2003-07-14 Thread Michael C. Jackson
Yup, it's all based on script timeouts - Generally a good reason to have
that set to something sane, like 5 minutes.

CF doesn't have anything evil like the old "while (1) {fork;}" trick you
can do in Perl, does it?  Or am I simply being a heathen by bringing up
Perl here?  :)

Encrypt() putting single quote in string, causes SQL error when trying to SELECT

2003-07-14 Thread James Johnson
Hi,

Have an interesting problem. I'm using Encrypt() to store sensitive user
data in SQL Server. On some strings, the function is encrypting with a
single quote as one of the chars. This is causing a SQL error when I'm
trying to either enter or retrieve the data with cfquery.

Has anyone run across this problem? Can anyone offer a workaround?

Thanks,

James

RE: Capture Crashes BESIDES Server logs

2003-07-14 Thread Douglas.Knudsen
look at try/catch logic via cftry and cfcatch.  You can have custom errors defined too 
that you can catch.  look at cferror.  Also, look into cflog tag which can be used to 
make entries in the CF logs or your own logs.

Capture Crashes BESIDES Server logs

Is this possible? Maybe if an element or on page load doesn't load have

I would very much appreciate a simple, low cost way of implementing

The idea of an interigator that asks questions and allows for answers is excellent. I 
would be more than happy to contribute more money if necessary to the creation of this 
type of functionality in the current app. 

Besides saving time for all of us regEx Dummies, there's a chance that it might get 
bought up and/or incorporated into future apps by Macromedia.

Just a thought...

You can either stop and restart the CF service or wait until the request

> 
> Rich Hims

There are quite a few cases where there two versions produce wildly
different results from the same code.  I re-did one of my "Code Challenges"
using CF 4.5 and MX (4.5 is slower than 5, but essentially the same
architecture) here:

http://www.depressedpress.com/DepressedPress/Content/ColdFusion/Challenge/Co
mbineSortQuery/Solution-Intro.cfm

But you can see that in some case speeds actually flip-flop - the fastest in
the old (C++) codebase is the slowest in CFMX and the slowest in C++ is
fastest in CFMX.

I mean to go back and re-do all of them with CF 4.5, CF 5.0, CFMX and RedSky
(once its released).

The nice thing about these challenges (anybody have any ideas for new ones?)
is that we have small code samples from many people doing complex tasks and
all of them are trying to be "fast".  So we get a lot of coding styles and
techniques to compare.

I'm always wanted to be able to spend more time on them and make them a
regular feature.

getting a "This expression must have a constant value." error. Is there some
kind of work around for this? Simply so that I can specify the value in one
place and then have it filter through the rest of my app.

thanks

Jordan

What I tend to do is make sure that the website as the JRunScripts
Virt.
Dir. There and that its set to allow executables.  The other thing is
to
re-run the connector scripts in the bin dir... Run the remove_all one,
then
the connector for your webserver

*yelp*

After a botched intranet relaunch last night, I found out realtively
quickly
that flash remoting was not working on our server.  No blank page. No
happy
data from the cfcs.

*sigh*

Is there any way to get the coveted "blank page" without reinstalling?

If this is one of those STFA (which I did indeed do) or RTFM questions,
I'll
happily take a lashing.

Functionality, Usability and Pricing

2003-07-14 Thread LI, Chunshen \(Don\)
I believe, the "Usability" thread all in all has
produced some positive results thanks
to almost everyone who responded, which I appreciated.
 Now, I'd like to go
a step further.  Forgive me if you perceive the topic
OT.

Functionality
IMHO, an application or utility must be able to
accomplish what it is intended to do.
That is the number one important objective.  Secondly,
reliability or consistency,
the application/utility must not behave one way one
day and another way another day
unless intended.  Third, efficiency, an application
can't take forever to excute.
Fourth and fifth, scalability and flexibity, I would
think the order of importance for them would depend on
situation/scenario.

Usability
Per thread,
http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=messages&threadid=25404&forumid=4

Question, what might be a quick way to measure the
above two attributes?  Say, use the data admin tool
for an example, URL,
http://68.32.61.40/datadata/DataMan.cfm

Email me ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) for full features like
semantic layer, data duplication check mechnism, file
upload etc.

Pricing
What is THE most important determinant for it?


Thanks.

Li, Chunshen (Don)
