XML - structure - WDDX - JS
Previously I had a structure that I converted to _javascript_ with WDDX, recently I converted the structure to a XML structure, since then I can't convert it to _javascript_ anymore. I was under the impression that when I parse XML it is a CF structure? Am I wrong, is it not a structure that can be converted to _javascript_ with WDDX? If this is the case I am going to have to rethink my whole strategy.

Re: Software Life Cycle Development Templates
Ian: In Switch_box, there is a free tool called the Logical Framework Tool (LFT). With it a project manager can design the application for structure of objects, methods, and actor messages using a tree menu. The tool allows multiple top levels called design. Using the tree, add objects nodes that form the structure of the application. And in each object, define nodes that name of the methods. Using the cut and paste tools, objects and methods can be moved from design to design or even within the design from level to level. There is even a code generator that will write all the structure templates and empty templates for the methods. All the data from the LFT is stored in a database as a logical model. There is no need for XML models, template models, modeling languages or graphic drawings of the design. The framework is the tree. If some CF code is necessary, run the generator for object or method nodes. All members of the design team can work from the same on-line model. Because the model is kept in a database, the project manager has all the benefits of the database to manage, track, organized, plan and design. When an add, delete, change or cut and paste is done on the tree, the changes are made in the database. All records are stamped with who and when. Each node on the tree comes with a form that captures design information. Since the code is open source GPL, the forms can be changed to fit the user's business needs. The real work in an application is in the methods. The LFT separates structure from function. Need to change the structure, change the tree. Structure can be automatically generated. That allows all programmer resource for methods. (With my new CFSQL tools, a lot of the method code for database can be generated with some checkbox selection.) For software life cycle iterations, create a new top level design then copy the logical framework for the previous design and paste into the new design. All the sub-node object and methods from the old design are now the starting point for the new design while keeping the old design in tact. Switch_box itself is an object oriented execution (OOE) framework in which the execution instructions come from a request message. Each request message is compared to the logical model and runs the plan defined in the LFT model. The software cycle benefit to this strategy is reduction of the change cost using the OOE strategies from different designs by reusing the same structures.

Dave, Let me clean up that last post... a little sloppy. In FB4 I use the prefuseaction and preprocess plug-in points to run tests such as the one you describe regarding sessions. However, I see that you are using FB3, so one approach would be to use the Application.cfm file and run a conditional statement checking the session variable.You could also use the switch file to run a template before each fuseaction to test the session variables. There are some other ways as well, but my advice would be to check out FB4 if your situation would allow, it makes things really smooth, especially if you are somewhat familiar with FB3; you will enjoy the enhancements.

Using ColdFusion for Oracle LOB's
Hi: I have a current assignment where will allow applicants to upload resumes, and we want to upload the file **DIRECTLY** to an Oracle CLOB field. I am presently trying working with Oracle 8i, but we will be upgrading to Oracle 9i shortly. Why do it this way? 1. My superiors want me to investigate doing it this way. 2. Oracle 9i apparently has some very powerful test searching tools, which they may want to use. I have never done this before, so I have been experimenting and trying to learn. In all the research that I have done, the only way I've found so far is, with ColdFusion, using the CFFILE tag to do either a READ or READBINARY, put the result into a variable, and then insert the variable contents into either a CLOB or BLOB field, respectively (I am experimenting with both). I then used the code in Listing 23.1, from the ADVANCED ColdfusionMX book. In short, I'm selecting the LOB fields from the tables, creating a Word document in a folder on the server, putting the LOB column contents into the word document, and then creating a clickable link so you can view it in MS Word. Two problems: 1. First, since I am doing all this work to create the document in a folder, this totally defeats the purpose of putting it in the database, as opposed to just creating a file on the server in the first place. 2. All the formatting tags (from a Word doc, let's say...) are viewable when you view the document. When you open the document, you see all the formatting tags, basically rendering the document unreadable. My question is this: Do you know of a way, USING COLDFUSION, to load the file directly into the CLOB or BLOB field without doing all this File processing, AND retaining all the file formatting.

[sot] SQL Server 200: Replication, pointer to good discussion list
Hello all!Does anyone have an opinion (what a loaded question) as to a discussion list focused on MS SQL Server that's on the caliber of CF-TALK? My question at hand deals with possible scenarios for doing SQL Server 2000 database replication over the internet.In my new job I've inherited a pretty strange setup, which has local users using a VB-based app on their PCs that hits a SQL database on the local server, along with a remote website that has the public side of the application in ASP hitting the same database via ODBC calls (including updates to the database) over a VPN connection back to the local server. Problem is that the server really isn't - just a glorified PC, no redundancy, etc., and the only backup scheme is nightly backups.I'm looking at new (anyone with an opinion on used refurbished servers?This is a non-profit so $$$ are always tight) servers to solve some of the hardware concerns, but would also like to look into having the web application go against a copy of the database that is local, so that the VPN is not necessary.Apparently the VPN requirement is responsible for driving the cost of the hosting service into the $700/mo range.Just to add to the mix, now that I'm in the picture, I'm writing CF apps to go against the same database to compensate for the various inadequacies of the VB application. Am open to all opinions and ideas on what the best future arrangement would be! Thanks everyone, -reed [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]
Structures and CFCs
We're working on redesigning a reporting module.The user is presented with lists of variables for each category from which selection is made and passed through a form to another template.The variables are then passed into a query. We're trying to rewrite the code so that it is done more efficiently. It seems that structure will be the best way to handle this. However, it seems that there is no way to pass a structure between templates without breaking it down into its component simple data types and reassembling it at the other end.But my coworker was told that structures can be passed into a CFC.Is this possible?If so, how does this work, and what are the pitfalls, if any? -- Lola - mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.lolajl.net | Blog at http://www.lolajl.net/blog/ I'm in Bowie, MD, USA, halfway between DC and Annapolis.

CF 4.5 Quit Working
Still using 4.5 on WinXP Pro desktop computer (this is a testing machine) While I was away for a while, the server simply quit working. Service was running, but not serving pages. Looking at the Event Viewer logs, it appears that the SiteMinder service is reporting that the Evaluation Period Has Ended. This error message coincides with the time that CF quit working. Note that I am running a full, licensed version of CF 4.5 Server. My initial research says that this has something to do with the utilization of advanced security. So, I reinstalled CF WITHOUT the advanced security option, but the problem persists. Am I on the right track here? Does SiteMinder have anything to do with my problem? Why is it expiring? Also might be noteworthy: The event viewer also mentions something about FLEXIm. I am looking into what that is all about this morning. Any clues as to which direction to look would be appreciated.

RE: Isdefined Issue
Thanks for reply To clarify: Your saying that a reference to an array is not a valid variable name? isdefined(QGetProjects.PROJ_NAME[#R#]) but a Structure is: because this works: isDefined(session.tdy.#controller#) guess I am just missing something, sense CF processes arrays else were fine: CFOUTPUT #MYArray[2]# /CFOUTPUT and you can use arrays in other functions: DateCompare(session.tdy[controller][newrecord],form.arrdate) I know that the DateCompare is looking at the value in the array element and isdefined is looking for the element name itself. But to me this seems to be inconsistent,IF CF can tell me the value of the array element then it should be able to tell me if its been defined? Or am I way off?

Re: Can someone recommend a good web development browser?
I usually develop with IE on a PC, but I would really like a browser that shows me the *time* taken to request each object in a web request. Also, if it could show me the http headers of the request and response, that would be sweet. I've currently got a page thats slow and I think its network latency, but I'm not sure what the best tool is for timing the response. There's got to be some good software out there for this task. While I prefer the Mozilla browsers and Opera technically, I find I always end up coming back to IE just because I have to make sure the site works for my 90%+ userbase. If I were to just spot test in IE I would miss something that I don't explicitly test for. -Kevin [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]

Thanks. Tried that and it's still dying. I came in today and CFMX was dead. Must be something else. I had this problem too. Upgrade your JVM.

Re: FTP client recommendations?
Can anyone recommend an FTP client that they are really happy with? I've been using CuteFTP 3PointSomething for years and today it dawned on me that there must be a better way. FlashFXP is hands down my favorite for the user-interface. Unfortunately, while it supports SSL it doesn't do SFTP. SecureFX is what I'm using now and I think I like it now better than FileZilla. Very different UI paradigm though. It's basically like Windows Explorer instead of the left-right panes. AbsoluteFTP is the same as SecureFX but without the SFTP feature. -Kevin [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]

Oracle / Stored Proc Issues
So basically we've moved some code from dev to production and on production it blew up. (big surprise right?) well the suprise is that whats blowing up is stored procedure calls that return queries. All other proc call are working like a champ but anything that returns a ref cursor throw an error saying Invalid number or types of arguments. As far as my knowledge allows, when you specify a cfprocresult that is interpeted as a argument. So does anyone have any idea why this would be working fine in dev but not production? I can assure you without posting any code that the calls are being made exactly how they should and the pl/sql is error free. I've had about 5-6 other developers take a look at this and everything codewise is airtight. [Adam Wayne Lehman] If you don't fake the funk, the funk will fake you.

RE: OT: FTP client recommendations?
I'll put in another vote for FTP Voyager.I rely on it for a lot of fancy stuff. Ubqtous: they have made big strides in the file synch feature.It seems pretty well bulletproof now, so long as you pay attention to source/dest folders.FTPV tries to remember the last pairing used with your source and that's not always what you want. About synchs: I love FTPV's multithread capability: tell FTPV to synch a folder tree using six threads.Its like having 6 ftp clients open all at once; busily sending and receiving all at once.It can also do this outside of synch.Initiate an operation, let it run, nav somewhere else and do something else.All ops will run concurrently.Not sure if this is a unique feature. I use the scheduler to synch big web file areas (thousands of folders, tens of thousands of files, running daily; several jobs again running concurrently).Formerly had bugs doing jobs that large but is solid in v10.x And it does SFTP with encrypted pwds really well.

Windows CE isn't Win32-compatible. Hmm, another idea is to use ASP if CE can take a lean IIS version, not sure if there's such a version. You have several options for Windows CE web server development. The Windows CE SDK comes with a web server that supports some ASP functionality, or you can use the CE port of Apache and Perl (!) available from http://www.rainer-keuchel.de, or you can use the GoAhead web server, which uses server-side _javascript_ in addition to ASP if I recall correctly. http://www.serverwatch.com/stypes/servers/article.php/16137_1368401 Dave Watts, CTO, Fig Leaf Software http://www.figleaf.com/ phone: 202-797-5496 fax: 202-797-5444 [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]
Re: ColdFusion Express
Good to know.Any idea as to Wondering if CE can support some version of Access while I know there's SQL CE version. Thanks. Are you trying to run a PDA as a server? That's what it sounds like. While it's true that Windows CE is used for Pocket PCs, it's also used for all sorts of embedded hardware, and it's common to want to provide web administrative interfaces for such hardware.

Good info, thanks.Hmm, if I want to use either Access .mdb file or SQL CE database, what language would seem most convenient, say, the CE has a web server, ASP? btw, could your pocket PC install a web server?

You can use ADOCE to access either one, I think. You can do that from the mini-ASP that MS provides with the SDK. btw, could your pocket PC install a web server? Yes.

RE: ColdFusion Express
I can understand the 3-tier approach, but when you're talking limited resources like a Pocket PC, I would think that a programming language connecting straight to the datasource would be better for conserving battery life and such.It may require learning a new language or something, but 3 tiers seems like it'd mean 3 times the resource hit and also 3 points of possible failure.I've never ventured into this sort of development, so I'm speaking from complete ignorance, but those would be my fears of doing the 3-tier approach vs. the 2 tier.If you did 2 tier, it seems you could even simplify things and use XML or something like that to store the data as opposed to a database.I guess it depends on the size of the data, etc. John Burns -Original Message- From: Chunshen (Don) Li [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 04, 2004 12:00 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: ColdFusion Express Good info, thanks.Hmm, if I want to use either Access .mdb file or SQL CE database, what language would seem most convenient, say, the CE has a web server, ASP? btw, could your pocket PC install a web server?

LinkPoint, Session Variables, ColdFusion MX components.
I have a shopping cart cfc that uses LinkPoint Basic. The Cart information is stored in a component session variable and when it's time to pay, the user is routed to LinkPoint, enters the cc information, once the cc is processed the users is returned back to our sight, and from there the order is pulled from the session variable and dumped into the database. The problem is when the user is returned the session variable no longer exist, at least it is not available for processing.

Re: sunone mx
dave, thanks for the response--sunone doesn't appear to be the cf flavor of the cf month. i got it working fine with just the web/app server mx (even though i was told mx 6.1 wouldn't work with sunone). it didn't seem that hard. I don't work with SunONE much, but do you have the SunONE application server installed also, or just the web server? If you're just using the web server, what servlet are you talking about? it appears both the web app server are installed, no idea which servlet. what should i ask about? i specifically asked was told that this puppy didn't contain any servlets. teh reason they insist on using it, is that its supposed to be so much better under stress than IIS. frankly i can't say if thats true or not, but i think having mx the other app go fast is probably more important. any opinions? the 3rd app is a bear to config, taking on average 10 stress-filled installs to get going (not kidding, some days it appears that someone coughing in the next room breaks the install). i normally pass it thru mx enterprise (once we figured out how to do that) which reduced the installation process to me sipping coffee drumming my fingers while it installs.

How to convince your boss to send you to CFUN-04
I have received some feedback from some people having difficulty convincing their boss to send them to CFUN-04 (http://www.cfconf.com/CFUN-04/). Here are ten reasons for going that you can tell them: 1. Two full days of training usually costs $750, CFUN-04 is only $269 - about a third of the cost! (Or just $199 before 3/31/04!) 2. To buy books on the 12 talks you can attend at CFUN-04 could cost $50 each or $600. Again CFUN-04 is cheaper and you get both a printed handbook and a CD-ROM of the talks, plus you can ask the authors questions too! 3. You will learn so much at CFUN-04 that when you come back you will be much more efficient at programming . If you are even 5% more efficient then CFUN-04 will pay for itself ten times over! 4. You can take any existing programming problems you have to the CF Doctor and CFDJ Panel at CFUN-04 for a quick answer and save yourself time when you get back to the office. 5. Half the battle in programming can be knowing that a solution exists at all. By seeing and hearing about a wide range of techniques you will be prepared for future problems and be able to solve them in less time! 6. The people you meet at CFUN-04 can help you by bouncing ideas with you and for you to compare how your organization does programming vs other organizations. 7. You can pick the brains of the 32 nationally know speakers and ColdFusion authors who are speaking at the conference. 8. You can get live in person demos of your favorite ColdFusion add on vendor's software and ask their staff questions. 9. You can hear about the latest news on yet to be released Macromedia products that might affect your business in 2004. 10. You can save $70 by registering before 3/31/04 when the regular registration price of $269 goes into effect. Check out all the track descriptions, session details and speaker bios at: http://www.cfconf.com/cfun-04/ Group rate ** Send the whole team to CFUN-04! If you have 3 or more people from the same company going and you all pre-pay together before 3/31/04 then you qualify for our group rate of $179 each. Email [EMAIL PROTECTED] if you want to do this. Unemployed? *** If you have been laid off and want to get the benefits of CFUN-04 but have no boss to ask, then TeraTech is providing a limited number of partial scholarships for CFUN-04 to help you get back into your career.

Re: ColdFusion Express
Have you considered Flash? It can be a 2-1/2 tiered setup. You can have the Flash app talk to a local XML resource, and when the PDA is synched and can get online, it can download new data for the XML from a database (the extra 1/2). And you can take the exact same app and just drop it into a web page if you want a web version. .NET would probably give you some options too, but I'm not familiar with it and don't know how well it's supported on various PDAs -Kevin And another note on 3-tiered vs. 2-tiered, it's more likely that 95+% of all my apps would be web-based, hence, stay with this approach would be more beneficial to myself rather than this particular app we're talking about though from efficiency or other factor point of view, 2-tiered is more desirable, source-wise, won't/shouldn't be an issue though (just one user per PPC).

Odd Thought
I noticed the other day that when you download the trial version of ColdFusion to use as a developer server you get the J2EE version running on the built-in jrun that once the trial month has run out works only from the local host.Is that correct or am I just imagining things? Now, if this is the case does that mean I could set up multiple instances of the server on my development box?Allowing me to have version customized to the different application hosts I work with all the associated DSN's, Mappings, excertra?Instead of having all of them mixed together and often mutually exclusive of others such as I have now. The one example I'm thinking of is the problems I have had working with multiple projects hosted on different servers and each one having a different mapping for the '/' application root.It can get very tiring having to change this setting each time I switch projects.

I've worked with CFMX 6.1 running on SunONE, so it can be done. But if SunONE were a flavor, it'd be poo flavor, I suspect. it appears both the web app server are installed, no idea which servlet. what should i ask about? i specifically asked was told that this puppy didn't contain any servlets. teh reason they insist on using it, is that its supposed to be so much better under stress than IIS. frankly i can't say if thats true or not, but i think having mx the other app go fast is probably more important. any opinions? If you're running the SunONE app server, the only way I know of to get it to coexist nicely with MX is to install MX onto a SunONE app server instance, rather than using the server configuration install of MX. Otherwise, MX will interdict all requests for servlets from the SunONE web server. I think that stress thing is a bunch of BS, by the way. I don't have any statistics to back that up, though.

I am doing something like this... cfx_execute name=cmd.exe and so on... in CFMX, I need to do it like this: cfx_execute name=C:\winnt\system32\cmd.exe.. and so on...

At 01:45 PM 3/4/2004, you wrote: In CF5, I used CFX_Execute to execute commands that were really long. Apparently, the ColdFusion CFEXECUTE tag has some kind of limitation as to the length of the command line command you can pass. I therefore used CFX_execute to call the command. How can I execute the command in qeustion in CFMX? My CFX_Execute? (The C++ CFX from intrafoundation.com?) It's not working for you under CFMX? --min [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]

del * C:\CFusionMX\wwwroot\WEB-INF\cfclasses\
Sometimes I make updates to my source code that I want to have applied against my production cluster of servers. If I simply remove the class files in C:\CFusionMX\wwwroot\WEB-INF\cfclasses, will that cause the application server to re-compile the missing source code? The reason I am considering doing this is because I periodically update dozens of files that are used by several machines.

wsconfig
I'm trying to set my application up on CFMX Jrun and using wsconfig isn't working for me. If I try and browse my site with the port it still works, without it I get page can not be displayed. Is there a manual way to set my site to run with IIS? TIA, Robbie [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]
RE: del * C:\CFusionMX\wwwroot\WEB-INF\cfclasses\
That won't work.CF maintains a copy of as many templates as you let it in memory.The files in that directory are only used if the requested template is not already in the memory cache (notably on server startup).You'll have to either let the templates refresh themselves as needed (it'll happen on the first request, if trusted cache isn't enabled), or just cycle each server after applying the updates.If you're running in a cluster, then it's a snap to do the latter.

My dream ftp-client would have: * norton commander keys/layout * you'd be able to walk the tree in parallell in local/remote pane (you click a directory on the remote server, and you'd enter the same locally) * loads of fancy queue management features, priorities, throttling etc * FXP * loads of hotkeys * fancy client/server synching * support for other protocols (like http/samba) * cut and paste a path to go to that dir (hate that you can't do that in CuteFTP Pro) [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]
