Re: cfc and the application scope
This topic has been covered at great length on the cfcdev mailing list and you might want to also check out Nathan's CFC best practice page, I think that may well cover most of your questions: http://www.dintenfass.com/cfcbestpractices/ From what I read in an article I located (sorry I dont have it here) - this was fine to do, and I could read/reference the application scope variables directly through my site without having to lock them (as they are used for read only - there is never any writing). Does this seem fine so far? As far as I know CFlock is no longer required with CFMX for protecting reading and writing to the application scope. and if so, also reading/referencing them from within cfcs? If encapsulation is important to you then, no don't reference application or session scopes directly from within your CFCs. Better to pass them into the CFC explicitly. If on the other hand you don't care about encapsulation... then go ahead and reference them. The other issue (the main one!) is that in my application.cfm file, I am creating my cfc objects within the application scope. eg: application.objTimetable = createObject(component, #application.components#.timetable) ; I do that all the time. The theory being that they are created once and stored in memory for any page to access/utilise at any time - however my concern is are they multi-thread accessible? what other issues are there?? I'll refer you to the Nathan's best practices. There is enough info there to make your CFCs thread safe. Hope this helps a little.

I have tried to write the loop, but i keep getting errors with the syntax that the loop produces. Assuming that your structure keys match up with the database fields, you should be able to loop through the list of keys to build the field list and then loop through the keys grabbing the value for the value list. One thing that you might not be taking into consideration is the type of variable that you're passing in.Anything that contains alpha characters is going to require single quotes... do you have a method in place to determine the type of field based on the field name? If you do then make sure you're using those rules - otherwise you might need to rethink how you're storing the data in the structure and look at a 3-for-1 approach - three keys in the struct for each field, one containing name, one containing the value and one containing the field type.

Re: cfc and the application scope
Leigh, someone already responded about cflock, but let me tell you how I handle application settings and CFCs. As the other responder mentioned, it is not good practice to directly reference Application variables inside CFCs. In the past, I used to simply do cfinclude template=settings.cfm inside my Application.cfm. settings.cfm would be a set of Application variables. I'd wrap the include with a check to see if they already existed. Now I create a CFC _specifically_ for getting my settings, which I'll either store in an ini or xml file. I'll either name that CFC Application or give it the same name as the project. My application.cfm file will then do cfinvoke component=cfcs.settings method=getSettings returnVariable=application.settings (Again, I wrap it with a check to see if application.settings already exist.) Now, my CFCs will have the exact same line in their constructor area. This means they have the same settings values as my code code outside of my CFCs, but it also means I don't have to worry about passing in applivation variables.

Re: cfc and the application scope
Not sure you really meant that you name a CFC Application since your code segment references a CFC called Settings but Since Application is a reserved word in CF (I.E. it is the name of a variable scope), I wouldn't recommend using application as the name of a CFC (or any sort of variable).

Re: StructKeyExists() vs IsDefined()
Barney Boisvert wrote:
cfset variables.variables.test = /
cfoutput
#isDefined(variables.test)#br /
#structKeyExists(variables, test)#
/cfoutput
isDefined() returns true, structKeyExists() returns false.
I have a fairly major concern with this.Why is isDefined() returning
true?It should be returning false, as the scope variables has been
specified as part of the whole variable name.
The whole point of scoping variables is to stop functions like
isDefined() going off and doing its own thing.Its should only be
checking to see if test exists in the variables scope and not whether
variables.test exists in any scope, including a null scope.
This would means that scoping is not really taken into account by
coldfusion, other by pure luck that functions like isDefined() look in
the null scope first.
If isDefined() is not taking scopes into account, does it keep going
until its checked all scopes or does it stop searching when it hits the
first occurance?
If I'm using StructKeyExists() I need to check whether the struct that
I'm checking in exists before I check for the keys existance as it
throws an exception if the struct doesn't exist, so I would have;
cfif IsDefined(variables) AND
StructKeyExists(variables.variables,test)
or even;
cfif IsDefined(variables.variable) AND
StructKeyExists(variables.variables,test)
or;
cfif IsDefined(variables) AND StructKeyExists(variables,variables)
AND StructKeyExists(variables.variables,test)
Ok - so this example is exacerbated by the improper use of a scope name
as a variable name, but hopefully you see the point that because you
have to use isDefined() to check to see if your struct exists before you
go looking for keys in the struct you are already scanning through all
the scopes to find your struct.The above examples are probably made
even worse by the fact that you should check to make sure that the
variable you are about to treat as a struct is actually a struct and not
a string, to avoid another exception. (Incidently, found an instance of
a string being referenced as struct in the Spectra source)
Anyway, all of this brings me back to :
Given that I've specified a scoped variable, why is isDefined() still
scanning when it should just be checking one instance? [One for Sean me
thinks ;) ]
Given all the additional work that surrounds using StructKeyExists(),
does this function actually give you any benefit over isDefined() when
used in the context ofdoes this variable exist?? I think the answer
really is no.When used in the context of I know this variable exists
and is a struct, does it have this key? then obviously yes it does.
Do cfset variables['foo.bar'] = 42 / and then try
isDefined('foo.bar') vs structKeyExists(foo,'bar') (the latter will
fail *before* calling structKeyExists() because foo is not defined as
a variable).
Ahem... isn't this wrong, just plain wrong.
I understand what is happening here, but it means that variables.foo.bar
doesn't exist either, that foo.bar can only be referenced by
variables['foo.bar'] and CF is letting people create variables with
invalid characters in their names.It all too scary to contemplate really.

SOT: PDF Remote Printing
As Critz would say... Oi Cf-talk! I have been, once again, volunteered to make something work that no one knows even if it can work. We have some fillable PDF forms on our external site. The powers that be want me to add code into these forms that will make the form print on one of our printers here in the hospital. The PDF's are on our WEB server, hosted here in-house. The forms are filled out in random places across the county or across the state. The people filling out the forms are not connected to our network. The hope is that they can click a submit button and the form will print out on a HP Laser here in the hospital. I have fooled around a little with the print command in Acrobat 5, but the dialog pops up asking which printer I want to print it to. Is there any way to bypass that dialog, default it to this in-house printer, and execute the print command? *How do I get into these things* ;) Candace K.

Re: cfc and the application scope
Raymond, I don't understand the value of your solution... you're setting the Application.settings from your Application.cfm, which loads them into the application scope... then you are doing it again in the constructor of the CFC, and assigning them to the application scope as well, which will overwrite any existing application scope variables. So it seems like you're still referencing the application scope variables within the CFC, although you are loading them multiple times for each CFC you load. Also, you mention that you do this so you don't have to pass in Application scope variables, but Application scope variables ARE available to the CFC with no problem, so you don't have to pass them in anyway. I guess I'm just looking for a little more explanation as to why you can't simply reference the application scope variables once they are already initialized, because the CFC doesn't store its own version of the application scope. - Rick [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings] [Donations and Support]

Re: the time
If you're using 9i, there's a timestamp datatype. Not supported in 8i, of course. So, you'd have to do a work around. Whether you store phony dates to go with your time, or store your time in a varchar2 column depends on what you want to do with your time. I'd _guess_ that if you don't have a date relevant to the time, then you're not going to be treating it as a _real_ time (i.e. not doing time math and stuff like that). In which case, I'd probably store it as a varchar2. -d - Original Message - From: Daniel Kessler I have to record a time in a DB.It would seem that I'd do that with createTime.I have just a few simple questions.

Subject: RE: java objects and cfmx
and I have learned that, in Java:
1 == 1.0
1 == 1.1
2 == 1.2
2 == 1.3
2 == 1.4
All of the above are true -- what could be more clear?:)
I don't know what the heck you're learning from, but that's all kinds of
wrong.Here's a sample class:
public class test {
public static void main(String[] args) {
runTest(1, 1.0);
runTest(1, 1.1);
runTest(2, 1.2);
runTest(2, 1.3);
runTest(2, 1.4);
runTest(2, 1.5);
runTest(2, 2.0);
}
private static void runTest(int i, double f) {
System.out.println( + i + == + f + = + (i == f));
}
}
And the output it generates:
1 == 1.0 = true
1 == 1.1 = false
2 == 1.2 = false
2 == 1.3 = false
2 == 1.4 = false
2 == 1.5 = false
2 == 2.0 = true
Which is exactly as you'd expect.

Re: the time
Post 8i, use timestamps.
If you are Oracle 8i or earlier, you should probably use a date field.
Here are two options:
1.Use to_date('10:10','HH:mi') to store the time in the Oracle
database.This will insert the current date in the date portion but you
can retreive the time using to_char(date_field 'HH:mi');
2.Use to_date('01/01/0001','MM/DD/') + :hour/24 + :minute/1440to
store the time in the Oracle database.This will allow you to add/subtract
time and get the time difference in fractional days.To retrieve the time
use to_char(datefield, 'HH:mi').
Hope this helps.

You can't reliably know if a visitor blocks cookies.

RE: CF to BD inconsistencies
The easiest way to see what the problem is, is to break down the complex
_expression_ into separate lines. I would recommend that anyway since the
current _expression_ isn't very readable and uses of iif and de are always
suspect.

Subject: CF to BD inconsistencies
I've just started moving some stuff over to a server running BlueDragon
(free version) and I've found a couple of inconsistencies...
Anyone know why the following code works fine in CFMX but not so well in
BlueDragon. When run in BlueDragon I get an error: Invalid index to
query column. valcol cannot be evaluated to an integer value.
cfset selected = iif(listfind(ivalue,iquery[valcol][x]),de(selected),
de())
Here's the call and the function:
select

,tState,tState,)#

Re: Coldfusion Web Image Editor
The types of functions you are describing need not be client based. You could do this by just selecting an area of an image (a fairly easy dhtml or flash function), then submitting the results to the server with the imagename, function and select area. Most of the cf image tags can handle the crop or resize. Then return the result back to the browser, along with a restore button, and even a history list of steps taken from the original image.

RE: Unusual behaviour with CFHEADER
Jay: When the server sends files to the browser, it is the server's responsibility to include the file's Mime-Type.Whether or not the browser accepts this (it should) is up to the browser, but the server always returns a Mime-Type.MSIE has been known to ignore the Mime-Type returned by the server and to instead try to figure out the file type on its own by looking at the file's extension and the first few bytes of the file. When a browser sends a file to the server, it is the browser's responsibility to include the Mime-Type of the file being sent.The server is supposed to rely on the browser-supplied Mime-Type.Coming from a Windows-based system, it is entirely possible that the browser is sending over application/msexcel instead of application/vnd-msexcel as the Mime-Type.This would be Microsoft's fault 8^). In general, whichever party to the connection is sending the content, it is that party's responsibility to also specify the content's Mime-Type.For more information on HTTP take a look at the preso I gave last year: http://www.cfug-md.org/meetings/ColdFusionFoundationsHTTP_09-09-03.ppt -- Mosh Teitelbaum evoch, LLC Tel: (301) 942-5378 Fax: (301) 933-3651 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] WWW: http://www.evoch.com/ James Smith [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: This does bring up a question however, I was under the impression that when sending files it was the browser that interpreted the mime information and loaded the appropriate program.

What has he done.Some more information or a website would be nice. -Mario -Original Message- From: Joe Rinehart [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, July 12, 2004 8:07 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Help Monique, Has he ported the rptServer.asp code to CF?If so, I'd definitely be interested. -joe - Original Message - From: Monique Boea [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Fri, 9 Jul 2004 14:08:40 -0400 Subject: Help To: CF-Talk [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hey All, First, I'm posting this for a friend, so my knowledge is a bit limited. My colleague is trying to gauge how much interest there is in a ColdFusion and Crystal Enterprise Integration widget/web service/consulting. What he's explained is, that if you can do it in ePortfolio or the Crystal Management Console, it can be seamlessly integrated into your ColdFusion apps. No need for ASP or CSP. He also claims to be able to do this from CF4+ integrating with CE8+. I believe he is also working on a FuseBox implementation as well. I've gotten some tips from him on one of the projects I'm currently working on so I am completely confident in his ability to do what he claims. Is there anyone needing/wanting these functions/capabilities? Thanks in advance for the responses. _ [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings] [Donations and Support]

Re: Linux OS authentication
His position is that he doesn't want to duplicate all the work he did to get Linux to authenticate from LDAP and that if something more complicated is done at the OS level CF will benefit from it. I found 2 custom tags that authenticate Linux users on the CF server, but they're not available for download.What is PAM?

Re: file upload validation
Does anyone have a JS script that will determine the length of file name for a file upload process? This is only for the document name, not the complete path and filename, so document.forms[0].fileupload.value will not work. just trying to find a script to determine the length of file name only prior to upload. TIA! Well you have to start with that value... if you're willing to resort to regular expressions in _javascript_, it should be reasonably easy to get the file name from that point... filename = document.forms.myform.fileupload.value; filename = filename.replace(/^.*(\\|\/)(.*)$/,$2); or something to that effect. hth s. isaac dealey954.927.5117 new epoch : isn't it time for a change? add features without fixtures with the onTap open source framework http://www.sys-con.com/story/?storyid=44477DE=1 [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings] [Donations and Support]

Of course we didn't discover it for a while... How did you trace it back to a particular exploit? If you didn't discover it for a while, they had quite a while to cover their tracks.

But is something more complicated done at the OS level? And do you need just authentication, or do you want to look up details about the user based on their username. I found 2 custom tags that authenticate Linux users on the CF server, but they're not available for download.What is PAM? Pluggable Authentication Module. See man pam.
