Confused about calling a function within a CFC
I'm a bit confused about how to call a function inside a CFC by anther function. I have a function called GETRANDID inside a cfc called utilities.cfc which creates a random id number.It's access is 'Public because I have to call it from several pages around the site. Now I am building another function within the same CFC that does other jobs, but needs a RandomID.I want to use the function GETRANDID to create the number, but how do I do it?Every way I've tried gives me a very unhelpful Page could not be displayed error, which tells me I've got it wrong but not what the problem is. Can anyone tell me how, within a function called RENDERLINKSI call the other functioncalled GETRANDID ?

RE: ugly truth
From: Chunshen (Don) Li Client wants to run 30 concurrent users testing/training. Still Access? And I don't want to argue with a client. If they want to run 30 concurrent users, then you've got to tell the client 2 things 1) Upgrade the memory 2) Upgrade from Access to a server level database rather than a user level database Try an analogy: It's like trying to drive down the freeway/motorway in a go-kart Having a single processor server with 256MB of RAM and expect it to handle 30 concurrent request, and then running it on Access is a little unrealistic The (rough estimated) level of concurrent requests in CF5 is 4-5 per processor - so you would need a 6-8 processor machine Access ODBC handles 50 concurrent requests before it begins to throw errors - that's 50 CFQUERY tags total - so for 30 concurrent requests, you'd have 1.5 queries per page without cache! You can't run a site of that amount of traffic on a box of that specification You also realise that if you don't argue with the client over this, when it falls flat on it's face that they'll blame you, right?

Just do cfset result = getRandID(). You call it like it was a UDF. [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]

Re: ugly truth
Yes, update, client party and I ran a test on concurrent users (total = 3 concurrent users) early this morning (clicking on each function/button simultaneously), Access 2000 with current extremely low server memory capabity and query-extensive function, failed to execute some query for 1 or 2 users most of the time for each button/function. Though appreciate your input, but the general belief that Access does not or can't do a decent job on supporting concurrent users well is confirmed as far as I'm and my client for this project is concerned.In actual application use, yes, maybe, it's extremely rare that 3 concurrent users would hit the same button at the exact second, the theory below is unnecessary.But client's customers training session with 30 concurrent users hitting a same button would make you or anyone else cry (for or against Access) and that's part of client's contract with his customer. So, on the db end for this project, I don't seek any further input, thank you. Chunshen (Don) Li wrote: Client wants to run 30 concurrent users testing/training.

Re: the ever popular cflock best practice revisited
Tom and Issac, An update: Early this morning's testing with my client (total of 3 concurrent users hitting same button/function simultaneously) seems to prove that locking session variables with SCOPE of session attribute and TIMEOUT attribute value set according to an educated guess on the estimate of the execution time of content inside a lock WORKS WELL. On cflock name=#createuuid()#, my guess is, cf server (be it 5x or 6x) may treat quasi variables, say, cflock with NAME attribute is one of them, as variable class, then, according to CF spec, variable name may not start with numeric value, then of course this type of NAMEd locking would fail, while cflock name=str#createuuid()# may be able to lock, making sense? or do I need more coffee?Any MM cf server architecture dude here? to confirm or clarify? Don I love mud, Issac, :) I think you made some valid points.To create a cf lock like cflock name='session' ... is totally and obviously senseless.

RE: the ever popular cflock best practice revisited
I understand what Issac said in his post earlier, it makes sense that if things work as he described then scope should be slower than name. However, when I increased the loop counters by 10 and run from 3 different browsers the prediction that Issac made don't check out. The browser that makes the 1st call is about even for name and scope. But the 2nd and 3rd show that scope is 2 as fast as name. Now either there is still something wrong with how I test it and one has to build a dedicated cflock testing system or we still didn't get it. As a side note, cflock seams to be one of the most misunderstood elements of ColdFusion. There is not much information on it anywhere I looked. And when I find something it conflicts with information elsewhere. By far I am not an expert and don't spend my days looking at cflock, however, it would be nice if MM posted detailed specifications in a KB somewhere (last time I looked I didn't find anything).

Re: ugly truth
failed to execute some query for 1 or 2 users most of the time for each button/function. It depends on what you mean by fail. Having 3 concurrent queries in Access can make it take 1/2 second instead of 1/3 sec, but It CANNOT make it fail. If it failed, (check for any error message), it might simply be a CFLOCK issue in the code, rather than an Access problem, and upgrading to MSSQL won't solve the problem. -- ___ REUSE CODE!

First of all, include this function in your page (it returns a structure containing all matches): !--- Like REFind(), but returns *all* matches --- CFFUNCTION NAME=REFindAll OUTPUT=false RETURNTYPE=struct CFARGUMENT NAME=regex TYPE=string REQUIRED=yes CFARGUMENT NAME=text TYPE=string REQUIRED=yes !--- Define local variables --- CFSET var results=StructNew() CFSET var pos=1 CFSET var subex= CFSET var done=FALSE !--- Initialize results structure --- CFSET results.len=ArrayNew(1) CFSET results.pos=ArrayNew(1) !--- Loop through text --- CFLOOP CONDITION=NOT done !--- Perform search --- CFSET subex=REFind(ARGUMENTS.regex, ARGUMENTS.text, pos, TRUE) !--- Anything matched? --- CFIF subex.pos[1] IS 0 !--- Nothing found, outta here --- CFSET done=TRUE CFELSE !--- Got one, add to arrays --- CFSET ArrayAppend(results.len, subex.len[1]) CFSET ArrayAppend(results.pos, subex.pos[1]) !--- Reposition start point --- CFSET pos=subex.pos[1]+subex.len[1] /CFIF /CFLOOP !--- If no matches, add 0 to both arrays --- CFIF ArrayLen(results.len) IS 0 CFSET ArrayAppend(results.len, 0) CFSET ArrayAppend(results.pos, 0) /CFIF !--- And return results --- CFRETURN results /CFFUNCTION Here is the processing itself: !--- Get all records --- CFSET records=REFindAll((BOOS\|).*?(BOOE\|), myData) !--- Loop through them --- CFLOOP INDEX=i FROM=1 TO=#ArrayLen(records.pos)# !--- Your per record processing goes here --- CFSET record=Mid(myData, records.pos[i], records.len[i]) CFOUTPUT#record#/CFOUTPUT HR /CFLOOP The REFindAll() call gets the matches, and the CFLOOP loops through them.

Return text amount anding with a full word
I want to return a portion of text provided the last word is the full word. I understand I can use this SQL: select left(textfield,100) from table. But I want to get a whole last word not truncate it. I am sure this has been discussed before. Thanks Eric [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]

you could set a session variable... cfset session.timeFirstView = Now() Then on an unload _javascript_ event...to detect when the page is left and have that trigger a second Now() CF function, then you'd have the start and end time. - Original Message - From: JT To: CF-Talk Sent: Sunday, May 30, 2004 1:25 PM Subject: How do I track How do I track How long someone has viewed a coldfusion page...any ideas would be apprciated.

DSN Connection issue
I just put SQL Server 2000(Developer) on my development machine that is running CFMX. I am trying to set up a datasource and it keeps failing. I have a user set up in the database and that is all fine. I tried using (local) for the server name and I also tried ERIC-T41383YGX5 which is what the SQL Server Registrations is.

Re: ugly truth
Oops, mis-information, client most recently told me the cf server, IIS web server and Access db WERE on a same box. But good to be confirmed Access db on a separate box does not make any sense. Chunshen (Don) Li wrote: They are Dell 1550 for WEB server (IIS 5.0) and 2550 for Access 2000 (intend to upgrade to SQL Server) (they have a total of 4 boxes). Never, ever run Access over a network share. You literally quadruple the failure modes when going from a local Access DB to one run over CIFS and performance will degrade.

Re: the ever popular cflock best practice revisited
As a side note, cflock seams to be one of the most misunderstood elements of ColdFusion. There is not much information on it anywhere I looked. And when I find something it conflicts with information elsewhere. By far I am not an expert and don't spend my days looking at cflock, however, it would be nice if MM posted detailed specifications in a KB somewhere (last time I looked I didn't find anything). I was given one very useful URL on cflock for preCFMX and a link to CFMX http://www.macromedia.com/support/coldfusion/ts/documents/tn17882.htm#5 [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]

Guy, I am going to take it that you have not tried it and therefore don't know what I am talking about. Or better still don't know what you are talking about!

Wow. How very professional of you Andrew. So let me understand this your IDE updates the ColdFusion administrator settings for the CFX for you?What IDE is that - I think many of us would like to know. Perhaps you are merely frustrated with your situation and this is complicated by the fact that I was not more clear.You must include the complete package path for your CFX class in the class field of the CFX registration in the ColdFusion administrator.I presumed that this was not the case since it was not shown in the information that you provided when I asked for it.

Re: parsing help for a slow learner
As Ben said, this is a job for Reg expressions, and this is what CF_REExtrac is particulary good at: The code would just be something like: CF_REextract INPUTMODE= file INPUT= myFile RE1= BOOS\| RE2= BOOE\| OUTPUTMODE= query OUTPUT= myQuery Then you would get all record in a field in query MyQuery See REextract here: http://www.contentbox.com/claude/customtags/tagstore.cfm -- ___ REUSE CODE!

He3 community input (custom tag paths/mappings)
For various types of features we would like to implement in He3, we need the ability to locate files that are defined by runtime information which won't be available. Examples of this include resolving cfincludes, custom tag calls, and CFC dot notation references. One way to solve this is for projects in He3 to be configured with custom tag paths and mappings that match the settings in the target platform. That leads to a few implications. First, it requires the developer to actually configure information in a project. I know DWMX's project configuration annoyed me when I was used to just pointing Studio at a file system directory. Second, the project's settings could get out of sync with the target platform thus causing unexpected behavior. Any thoughts on the proposed solution? -Matt [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]
RE: Again Java CFX
Andrew,
*sigh*
For the sake of making a complete statement I will walk through the process
with you and perhaps we will discover what the problem is.
So I created a Java class in the following directory: C:\CFusionMX\cfx\rish
The Java class file name is: cfxhello.java
The source for that class is:
package rish;
import com.allaire.cfx.*;
public class cfxhello implements CustomTag
{
public void processRequest(Request request, Response
response)
{
response.write(Hello, World);
}
}
I then created a JAR containing this class.From the command line in the
C:\CFusionMX\cfx directory I executed this command: jar cvf rish.jar
rish\*.class
I can verify that the JAR was created with the correct pathing by executing
this command: jar tvf rish.jar
I then registered the JAR into the ColdFusion Server's classpath by
including that JAR file in the Class Path field of the ColdFusion
Administrator's Java and JVM page.
I then registered the CFX tag with the following fields -
Tag Name: cfx_hello
Class Name: rish.cfxhello
Description: -
I then created a template called Andrew which looks like this:
cfx_hello
And behold it works!
Important items to note:
1. You must make certain that class gets added into your JAR correctly.
2. You must make certain that the JAR exists in the Server's classpath.
Automatically assuming it will just get pickup because it was dropped in a
directory will *not* suffice.
3. You must make certain that the CFX class name contains the fully
qualified package path to the class.
Additionally it is presumed that you have actually debugged the CFX.You
might consider using the debugging classes that are a part of the CFX API.
Once the class loading problems have been solved you might also encounter
some problems in the construction of your class.
I presume that I have been sufficiently clear about the process so as to
appeal to your more professional aspect.
Perhaps you will find it within yourself to give me the same courtesy.

RE: Again Java CFX
Guy
That is excatly what I have been doing right from the word go
And here is the error message I get
in answer to you points...
1) It is in the jar correctly, because I can
CreateObject(java,nuImage.nuImageResize);
2) If that is a dig then its not funny, I mentioned dragging in my IDE which
automaticall places the word package into the file.
3) well enough said
Yes I have debugged the class file, as I said if it is not in the directory
(package nuImage) and in the root of the jar file it works fine.
Now like I said apart from that samll part it all works fine.
Error processing CFX custom tag quot;CFX_nuImage.nuImageResizequot;.
The CFX custom tag CFX_nuImage.nuImageResize was not found in the custom
tag database. Please be sure to add custom tags to the database before using
them. If you have added your tag to the database then you should check the
spelling of the tag within your template to insure that it matches the
database entry.

Re: parsing help for a slow learner
Hi Seamus You have a few people helping you already, but I thought I would share how I would do this for a different perspective: basically, I ask myself how would I do this manually, then map the process to code. I guess it helps to be able to think like a computer, but I digress. An alternative to the dynamic SQL generation is provided using [ ] instad of . Step 0: Get access to the file CFFILE ACTION="" VARIABLE=inFile etc etc Step 1: process each line This step includes recognizing that each piece of information is on a separate line (Chr(13)Chr(10)), and that on each line we have the metadata (BOOS, ANAM, TNAM, etc), separated from the data with a | character. NB: I treat things (everything!) as a list. I don't/can't do regex in my head, I do lists. [CFSET Record = StructNew()] CFLOOP LIST=#inFile# DELIMITERS=#chr(10)# INDEX=aLine Step 2: recognize records: This step includes grabbing the metadata for subsequent use Start = BOOS| End = BOOE| CFSET Meta = ListFirst(aLine, |) Just for fun (to handle a simple potential problem of missing fields/data), we will dynamically create the insert SQL statement as we go. To do this we will need 2 strings - the field list and the value list. We may as well initialize them at the start of a record. NB: to keep it simple, we are also going to treat all fields as string. You can modify this process as you see fit. CFIF Meta EQ BOOS CFSET FieldList = CFSET ValueList = [CFSET junk = StructClear(Record)] If it's the end of the record, we should insert it into the database... CFELSEIF Meta EQ BOOE CFQUERY DATASOURCE=etc etc INSERT INTO Books (#FieldLIst#) VALUES (#ValueLIst#) /CFQUERY [Do your data insert here, using the key/value data from the Record struct] Step 3: recognize fields We have tested for start and end of record, everything else is assumed to be a field: build up the field and value lists accordingly... CFELSE CFSET FieldData = Trim(ListRest(aLine, |)) CFSET FieldList = ListAppend(FieldList, Meta) CFSET ValueList = ListAppend(ValueList, '#FieldData#') [CFSET junk = StructInsert(Record, Meta, FieldData)] /CFIF /CFLOOP That will pretty much do want you want.

Application Security Confusion
Ok, I must really be missing something obvious, because this makes no sense. I have an application that has security setup and tracked via session variables.The cfapplication tag has the setClientCookies attribute set to true, and the sessionTimeout attribute has a createTimeSpan value of 0,0,15,0 which I thought was 15 minutes (I am questioning most everything I knew now).At the beginning of each secure page, there is an isDefined check to see if a session structure userAuth exists.If so, then further checks are done to check for valid permissions - if not, the user is sent to the login screen. When I first load the application, I get sent to the login screen as expected.However, if I leave my browser window open with no activity for 30 minutes, I find I can still navigate the secure pages without having to log in again.What is even weirder is that I can close all of my browser windows, load a new browser window and go directly to a secure url in the site without having to log in again. I am beginning to question everything I knew about session variables, but I thought they were supposed to time out and die automatically based upon the sessionTimeout attribute of the cfapplication tag and they always died immediately upon closing the browser. My session variables won't die! Thanks for any pointers. -- Jeff [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]

Andrew, I'm happy to see you seem to have solved your problem but I am a little puzzled by your response... My question was Have you registered CFX_nuImage.nuImageResize or CFX_nuImage in the admin area? Your response was Yes I have and I know I said that! I can understand your respose to the question but I was really interested in which one you had registered OR whether you had tried both. I was also interested in how you were calling it in your cfm template mainly to raise the question as to whether or not what you had in your code matched what you had registered...

I guess it helps to be able to think like a computer, but I digress. An alternative to the dynamic SQL generation is provided using [ ] instad of . Step 0: Get access to the file CFFILE ACTION="" VARIABLE=inFile etc etc Step 1: process each line This step includes recognizing that each piece of information is on a separate line (Chr(13)Chr(10)), and that on each line we have the metadata (BOOS, ANAM, TNAM, etc), separated from the data with a | character. NB: I treat things (everything!) as a list. I don't/can't do regex in my head, I do lists. [CFSET Record = StructNew()] CFLOOP LIST=#inFile# DELIMITERS=#chr(10)# INDEX=aLine Step 2: recognize records: This step includes grabbing the metadata for subsequent use Start = BOOS| End = BOOE| CFSET Meta = ListFirst(aLine, |) Just for fun (to handle a simple potential problem of missing fields/data), we will dynamically create the insert SQL statement as we go. To do this we will need 2 strings - the field list and the value list. We may as well initialize them at the start of a record. NB: to keep it simple, we are also going to treat all fields as string. You can modify this process as you see fit. CFIF Meta EQ BOOS CFSET FieldList = CFSET ValueList = [CFSET junk = StructClear(Record)] If it's the end of the record, we should insert it into the database...

RE: [Reply To] RE: parsing help for a slow learner
Seamus, This is a little trickier now. The simple solution would be to treat it as a list delimited by line breaks, but it is not as you have some fields that contains breaks in it, and no safe end field markers, so this needs to be a bit manual (as in loop line by line and see if it is a new field or not). So, you loop through record by record (what you already have), and then line by line within each record constructing the fields, and then doing something with them. It may be best to turn the data into a query, so for each record you add a row, and then for each field you set a cell. Here is code that shows this: !--- Get all records --- CFSET records=REFindAll((BOOS\|).*?(BOOE\|), myData) !--- Create a query --- CFSET myQuery=QueryNew(BOOS,BOOK,TRAN,ANAM,TNAM,PBLS,SUB1,DESC,PRIC,UPDT,UPTM,BCA T,ABLE,UBID,STAT,PPRC,PDSC,BOOE) !--- Loop through them --- CFLOOP INDEX=i FROM=1 TO=#ArrayLen(records.pos)# !--- Add a row to the query --- CFSET QueryAddRow(myQuery) !--- Loop through records --- CFSET record=Mid(myData, records.pos[i], records.len[i]) !--- Initialize field --- CFSET field= !--- Loop through lines in this record --- CFLOOP INDEX=line LIST=#record# DELIMITERS=#Chr(10)##Chr(13)# !--- If has a | in it, then treat it as start of new field --- CFIF line CONTAINS | !--- New field, save to field --- CFSET field=line CFELSE !--- Next line of field, append to field --- CFSET field=fieldline /CFIF !--- Now that we have the field, split it, before | is name, after is value --- CFSET field_name=ListFirst(field, |) CFSET field_value=ListRest(field, |) !--- And save it to the query --- CFSET QuerySetCell(myQuery, field_name, field_value) /CFLOOP /CFLOOP Use this with the function I gave you earlier. You'll then end up with a query named myQuery (change the name to something more descriptive). The query will have the fields in your record (same names), and can be used like any other ColdFusion query. To display it you could do this: !--- Show query contents --- CFDUMP VAR=#myQuery# The next step would be to turn this all into a function, pass it a file (or file contents) and get back a query. And you should be all set. --- Ben PS Thanks for asking, little challenges like this are good practice. :-) _ From: Seamus Campbell [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, May 30, 2004 6:20 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: [Reply To] RE: parsing help for a slow learner Thanks Ben.

RE: Confused about calling a function within a CFC
Ray already answered the question, but I thought I'd share my thinking on this as well. I've had many arguments about this view, but I find it helps tremendously to view CFCs as persistable CF templates.The more accepted view is to view them as objects, and this can be useful, but only if you already know objects or are attempting to replicate an object-based pattern or architecture. Looking at CFCs as CF templates is, I think, probably closer to the truth of how they were designed.For me it also clears up some of the conceptual holes when you try to determine why the designers did certain things. For example: 1) In any CF template the variables scope is only viewable by that template - that's why it makes sense to me that the variables scope equates to the private scope for CFCs. 2) As Raymond said, the way you call a CFC method is exactly equivalent to way you would call any function in any CFC template. They really are the same - the terminology is different, but don't let that confuse you - if you know how to use functions in any CF page then you know how to use methods in CFCs. 3) In CFCs, just like in any CF template, processing occurs from top to bottom.Any code outside of functions is run immediately.When I think about it like this the pseudo-constructor (and lack of a real constructor) makes much more sense: it's just like any template - what's there runs like it would in any template. 4) Many common CFC questions can be answered easily when you start thinking like this as well.CFCs use and access most scopes (CGI, Application, Server, Session, Cookie, etc) the same way as any template.Although there are larger considerations to using them CFCs use shared scopes, custom tags and CFINCLUDEs the same way as any templates.For example in a normal CF template you can CFINCLUDE a page of functions - those functions are then local to the template.In a CFC you can CFINCLUDE a page of functions - those functions are then methods of the CFC. The big difference between normal CF templates and CFCs is that CFCs are persistable - in other words they can be run, but then stored in a shared scope and reused.But even this can make more sense if you think about them as templates: basically a normal template runs, then stops and it's assets are destroyed.CFCs are run, then stowed instead of being destroyed - their assets are still available indefinitely. You can then access them via their method calls (functions) but you can think of this as running a function on another CF page. The metaphor breaks down some when you get into thinking about CFCs as objects, but it still helps.There've been may arguments about how CFCs aren't OO enough - and considered as objects they really aren't.However considered as persistable CF templates with some object features it makes (at least to me) much more sense. CFCs just aren't objects - they are CF templates with some special capabilities (and limitations) and they act much more like CF templates for most purposes than like objects. I'm not sure if this helps or confuses you more, but I find thinking this way helps me immensely when conceptualizing how CFCs work.
