Re: Application variables default timeout iin CFAdmin
It's up to you - if an application that hasn't been visited in three years is important, then set it to 999 days. You may decide the memory saving is worth a shorter timeout.

Re: CFC Paths
it'll probably be related to where your CFCs are in relation to the / mapping in ColdFusion differing between local/live environments. In your local environment it would appear you are building a site in the 'rootdirectory' folder which is in the webroot, usually mapped to a / CFmapping. Your live environment is probably web mapped straight into rootdirectory...so there reference to rootdirectory is invalid, hope that helps, john.

Re: CFC Paths
yes, in addition you could create a mapping on the live server named the same as the folder in local and map it to the webroot and it should work as expected (ie the same place as the existing / mapping on live) if you end up having multiple virtual servers on the same box you might want to create a unique mapping for each site...so siteA would have it's own mapping, 'SiteA' and you'd reference that in your CFCs since you can only have unique names for mapping on a single cf instance jb.

RE: Page loading time
Barney, I am trying to use cfc caching properly, but this is my first real CFC-intensive project. I cache most anything that does not need to be created with each page call. But, for each page call, I do need to create some things: 1. Environment CFC (contains info about the web and server - purely public variables ex. Environment.Web.Root, Environment.Server.Directory). Very light weight, but does do some calculations. 2. RequestFacade CFC 3. Page CFC (display component which extends either oneColumnPage or TwoColumnPage which then extends AbstractPage - the multiple inheritence may cause some overhead???) But, then again, it might just be browser rendering also. If I take out my javascript file link, the page loads noticeably faster. I am not sure what to do about that. My JS file isn't even very large, nor does it do any processing during page load. Maybe firefox is just slow to parse JS files. I will keep trying to get the page load smaller. ...

Still In The Works (OpenBiz)
This morning I sent this out to the Nashville CFUG mailing list and thought it important to copy it to drop in here as well. --C-- - By the way, didn't get the chance to mention this last night so I thought I'd bring it up here. Before I begin let me just say that I am not trying to start a flame war on a low traffic local cfug list, please read through the entire message and think about it's text before blindly responding. For some reason there appears to be a growing need, within the CF community, to defend the validity of programming within CF. The uninformed/unitiated either a) don't know that ColdFusion exists, or b) think of it as a low-level tag-based scripting language with no power and a high price tag. Now, I don't know about ya'll, but I'd like to beat these people with their own arms for being dumber than a stump. But, since that's not an option and we all have to work to feed our families, many in the community are working towards giving CF 'validity'. Now, not all of these people look at their contributions like this. Some of this are 'just trying to help out.' But the bottom line is (in the many discussions that are out there) that there aren't a ton of high level, enterprise marketable, applications out there written in CF. There are hundreds of little snippet programs for doing this and that. There are thousands of SOHO business applications written in CF 2/3/4/5 un-modifiable, non-configurable spaghetti code. There ARE NOT many high end Open Source enterprise level applications written in ColdFusion. So? That's the response I get a lot. But what are we, as CF developers, competing with? How about the hundreds of thousands of open source applications written in C++, PHP, or Python, or even ASP (shudder). Applications that companies download, install, and work with every day. With such a great development community, why don't we have more/better to offer for ColdFusion? Don't get me wrong, I love and applaud the efforts of all of the framework developers we have (Hal, Ben, S. Isaac, Rob, et. al.) and appreciate those who crank it out just for our benefit, learning and enjoyment (thanks Ray), but CF needs some well-designed, well-coded, well-documented Open Source programs to offer to the world. Something that tells people We're serious about what we do. We're good at it, and only work with the best tools available. That's ColdFusion. So, having said all of that, and having stated my opinion for all to poke, prod, and plunder, I finally come down to my point and request. Not long ago a few people spoke out on the CF-Talk (houseoffusion.com) list for developing an Open Source E-Commerce application. For anyone who's really looked out there for a good CF cart, you may have seen that a) none are free, b) there aren't really that many, and c) few are worth a damn. Some of the higher priced ones are rather nice, but that doesn't mean that they are very configurable (by John Doe, shop owner and all around nice, non-programming guy), nor does that mean they are stable and well written (some haven't had their core business logic updated since FB 3). So, now there is an Open Source project on SourceForge.net for openSource Business Services (keyword openbizservices). The project started just before the holidays, so there hasn't been a lot of activity yet. I've only seen posts from three people in the forums so far (one of 'em being me). The overall scope of the project is 'in process' and is quickly taking shape. This morning I received an initial Design Document from Andy and it is fantastic for a first draft. This project, though still being scoped, is to be very full featured, well formed and documented, as well as extensible. Part of the core process is to design component objects that can be easily extensible for platform and db independence, that can be used in almost any framework or within a basic format we include. But, we need help. There are very few of us in this right now, giving only a few hours a week. The project will be broken down into many small sub-projects that will complete/compliment the overall design, so the more help the faster and more full-featured it will be. So, anyone interested in helping out (even just an hour or two a week) should please go over to SourceForge.net and sign up for the lists. We, and eventually the community at large, will greatly appreciate it.

Flash Forms vs XForms
What have your experiences been with the new flash form and xml form capabilities in CFMX 7. Which would you recommend using the most and why? Does it make sense to use cfforms at all or continue going down the old fashioned route of dynamically enhancing standard html forms? Let me know your thoughts.

mySQL 4.1 MX7
I'm trying to set up a DSN for a mySQL database in MX7 for the first time. I am running mySQL 4.1.6; I've created a schema and a user and assigned appropriate priviledges. When I go into CF Administrator to set up a DSN, the mySQL driver option is 3.x, which I selected and filled in the rest of the info, yet when I try to create the DSN I get a Communication failure during handshake. Is there a server running on localhost:3306? error message...and, yes, the DB is running, and it's on 3306. I am able to create an ODBC DSN for this connection in WinXP's ODBC applet, so I know things are working. Is this a driver issue within the administrator? If so, is it possible to install updated drivers in the administrator that will support mySQL 4.1 (or, better yet, 5)? I'd rather not have to rely on the ODBC connection, but it will work in the meantime...

OT: Need Site Reviewers Please
I'm teaching Web Scripting Authoring and have about 10 sites that need reviewing folks that are in the web industry. Last time I sent out a word doc via email and sincerely appreciate the time everyone took to review the sites. This time I have an easier method that will take less time for anyone willing to fill out a small survey on the sites that have been submitted. I have built a small application that wraps the student site, survey and assignment description in one page. In addition the application remmebers the last site you filled out a survey on and takes you to the next site, so if you don't have time to go through all the sites you can come back later. If you're interested in participating simply go to http://chumphrey.guardian-web.com/index.cfm and sign in using your email address and putting in your name (if you feel like it). All surveys are reported to the students confidentially and names are optional. Please drop me an email and let me know so I can have an idea of a participation count. The current asignment is to build a static business website. These students are multimedia students so they've been spending a lot of time working with flash, director, 3D Studio max but not much with HTML. The sites being presented with this assignment have been built using Notepad to hammer in HTML tag concepts. They were told that an element of wow would be incorperated into the surveys. I know that there are a few that are text only... and their surveys need to reflect the fact that they did not take any graphics into account. I'll be closing out this assignment's surveys on Thursday, February 2 by 1 or 2 pm. There are more assignments coming soon! Thanks for your time!

Re: Page loading time
That all sounds very reasonable to me. I'd be willing to bet that your JS is the culprit, even if you don't see any obvious cause. FF deals with JS very effectively, in my experience, so I doubt it's that. Just start commenting out chunks of the JS file until you get the noticeable speed-up, and then you can maybe figure out what needs to change to make it faster all around. cheers, barneyb On 1/27/06, Ben Nadel [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Barney, I am trying to use cfc caching properly, but this is my first real CFC-intensive project.

RE: avoiding direct SQL command injection
Anyway, I don't wanna get this working, I wanted to see if e.g. a cfqueryparam with type=cf_sql_varchar avoids this from execution or not. As Mr. Holmes pointed out, CFQUERYPARAM creates a prepared statement containing bound parameters. This means that pieces of data are explicitly identified as being data, instead of SQL commands. So, it doesn't matter what's in the data; the database will know it's not executable code.

Re: Tiobe programming languages ranking
Here's some ammunition: http://www.tiobe.com/index.htm?tiobe_index That link ranks the most used programming languages in the world. Notice the 9 green arrows next to CF! Moven' on up... Cheers, Baz That Tiobe page explains the rankings as follows: The ratings are based on the world-wide availability of skilled engineers, courses and third party vendors. The popular search engines Google, MSN, and Yahoo! are used to calculate the ratings. Observe that the TPC index is not about the best programming language or the language in which most lines of code have been written. In my view, the availability of skilled engineers, courses, and third-party vendors may say more about how complicated (or old) a language is than about its strategic value or market penetration. Ruby doesn't show up at all on this list. Why? Partly because it's a newer language. But probably also because the elegance of the Ruby on Rails framework renders courses and third-party vendors less important. The same could be said for CFML. So while there is certainly some value in the Tiobe ranking, for most organizations I'm not sure it's that useful in evaluating the strategic advantages of a web programming solution. A strong case can be made for CFML though. One such case I came across recently: http://www.hotbanana.com/products/hot-banana-technology/why-coldfusion-mx/ ~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:230601 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54

We've been developing it for about 9 years now since CF2.0 We use Oracle as the database system, content is delivered to the delivery system as XML (generally fragements, the delivery system assembles the fragments into xml pages where are xslt transformed into html).

CFINDEXing .pdf files not working?
I am using ColdFusion 4.0 (don't ask) and am trying to create a Verity collection of PDF and Word files. After building the index, I am able to text-search the Word documents (which are in the same folders as the PDF's) but am unable to text-search PDF files. (This was working a week ago but has now stopped working.) Here is the code that builds the index: CFSET IndexCollection = TrusteeDocuments CFSET IndexDirectory = D:\ABC\TrusteeIntranet\Documents CFSET IndexRecurse = YES CFSET IndexExtensions = .htm, .html, .txt, *., .pdf, .doc, .xls, .ppt CFSET IndexLanguage= english CFINDEX collection=#IndexCollection# action=REFRESH type=PATH key=#IndexDirectory#\ extensions=#IndexExtensions# recurse=#IndexRecurse# language=#IndexLanguage# urlPath=#application.TrusteeIntranetDocURL# Since I don't believe I altered any of the above code recently, I am beginning to wonder if the documents are incompatible for some reason. Is it possible that this old version of ColdFusion/Verity can't index PDF files created with recent versions of Acrobat? I am at my wits end. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Andy, I hope you've got enough ammo. I know what it's like to work in an office where CF is constantly under attack and everything competing is constantly under review.

Re: Tiobe programming languages ranking
Scroll down. Ruby is 22nd. Lee On Fri, 27 Jan 2006 11:46:45 -0400 Stephen Lapointe [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Here's some ammunition: http://www.tiobe.com/index.htm?tiobe_index That link ranks the most used programming languages in the world. Notice the 9 green arrows next to CF! Moven' on up... Cheers, Baz That Tiobe page explains the rankings as follows: The ratings are based on the world-wide availability of skilled engineers, courses and third party vendors. The popular search engines Google, MSN, and Yahoo! are used to calculate the ratings. Observe that the TPC index is not about the best programming language or the language in which most lines of code have been written. In my view, the availability of skilled engineers, courses, and third-party vendors may say more about how complicated (or old) a language is than about its strategic value or market penetration. Ruby doesn't show up at all on this list. Why? Partly because it's a newer language. But probably also because the elegance of the Ruby on Rails framework renders courses and third-party vendors less important. The same could be said for CFML. So while there is certainly some value in the Tiobe ranking, for most organizations I'm not sure it's that useful in evaluating the strategic advantages of a web programming solution. A strong case can be made for CFML though. One such case I came across recently: http://www.hotbanana.com/products/hot-banana-technology/why-coldfusion-mx/ ~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:230613 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54

overflow attack return-to-libc when starting CFMX 7

Re: Alternative Oracle JDBC Driver For Standard Edition
Did you scour sourceforge.net for JDBC drivers? I'm sure there's at least one for Oracle. You could always go ODBC... but then that kinda hurts the performance and scalability, no doubt the reason you went with Oracle in the first place. Speaking of limited budgets, could you go with SQL Server or MySql? Both are multitudes cheaper than Oracle, and both fully supported by CF Standard ed.

Note: a:hover MUST come after a:link and a:visited in the CSS definition in
order to be effective!!
Note: a:active MUST come after a:hover in the CSS definition in order to be
effective!!
Note: Pseudo-class names are not case-sensitive.
here is the example they provide:
a:link {color: #FF} /* unvisited link */
a:visited {color: #00FF00} /* visited link */
a:hover {color: #FF00FF} /* mouse over link */
a:active {color: #FF} /* selected link */

Subject: OT about CSS
I know this list is about CF, but I cannot find any populated group
about CSS,
and well... good developers are here anyway ;-)
My question is: is it specified somewhere in the docs that pseudo styles
for links
should be given in any specific order, and why?
In the code below, the link in the blue paragraph becomes red when the
mouse passes over,
but the A:hover spec is simply ignored if it is not the last one.

jdbc for mysql showing all field lengths at 655355
Is there a better driver to use for MySQL than the com.mysql.jdbc.Driver? I find in all my dsn RDS shows the field length for all fields at 655355. It does not matter if it is an int, varchar, datetime, or whatever all lengths are shown as 655355. This problem has been for all versions of CF.

Encrypt Decrypt
I'm using a simple encrypt statement to store info: #Encrypt(SESSION.Customer.xxx, GetX.Item)#', (this is from my INSERT statement) GetX.Item is the key loaded from a table. (I don't profess to be an expert in encryption (obviously) but, other than being a little obtuse in the code, I don't know how to hide the key any better on a server I don't control. I'm certainly open to suggestion.) Hiding the key aside, my decryption routine looks like (I'm moving it to another table that is secure): FieldX = '#Decrypt(FieldSaved, GetX.Item)#', where aaa is the data retrieved from the table and GetX.Item is the same key. And it works, (e.g., decrypting 0Z[ STK6_,;)*!I+!/ )until the encrypted data looks like 3JG$P5[0];!/QM#!O So, I played with it a bit and it became obvious that the problem is the # imbedded in the encrypted data. What now? I can't escape it (##) because that throws an error, too. To illustrate what seems to be happening: !--- this works --- cfset x=Encrypt(730072022000SerNum,7xxT533zrt3d9in) cfoutput #x# !--- this will be: 2:GR4G5_,3++Q]#9:N+?)N4 --- br /#Decrypt(x,7xxT533zrt3d9in)# !--- run routine then uncomment next line and run again --- !---br /#Decrypt(2:GR4G5_,3++Q]#9:N+?)N4 ,7xxT533zrt3d9in)#--- /cfoutput Larry Stephens [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:230634 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4 Donations Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54

Interacting w/ skype
Hi, Has anyone interacted with skype using their new api to a cf application? I was asked by a client if this was possible. I would like to log basic user profile like name, address, phone # etc.. I would like to be able to log this info somehow. Also, would it be possible to use skype inside a cf app? Make a call, leave msgs, send text msg etc..

RE: Encrypt Decrypt
Hi Larry, Your immediate problem can be solved by escaping it (##) AND assigning it to another variable. Use this: cfset encryptString = 2:GR4G5_,3++Q]##9:N+?)N4 br#Decrypt(encryptString,7xxT533zrt3d9in)# I have tried and it worked.

Starting CFMX from within JBuilder
Hi Anybody managed to start CFMX 6.1 or 7 (using embedding JRun) in JBuilder (or some other IDE)? I want to debug my own java classes as they are used and this seemed like a good way to try. (I used to do a similar thing with JRun 3 to debug my servlets, and it worked great. I was hoping it would apply to the JRun 4 that is underneath the stand-along CFMX.) Basically I think I need to know which jars to include in my project, what the startup class should be, and any VM and program arguments. I've been playing with it and have not hit on the right combination yet.

Re: Alternative Oracle JDBC Driver For Standard Edition
Did you scour sourceforge.net for JDBC drivers? I'm sure there's at least one for Oracle. Ok, thanks our ops folks will take a look there. You could always go ODBC... but then that kinda hurts the performance and scalability, no doubt the reason you went with Oracle in the first place. Speaking of limited budgets, could you go with SQL Server or MySql? Both are multitudes cheaper than Oracle, and both fully supported by CF Standard ed. Though, it sounds like you're already made a deep Oracle db investment. What I had not bothered to mention was that this is a conversion from Oracle Portal. So yes the client had already invested heavily into Oracle and wanted to stick with Oracle. Had this been a new project I agree that SQL server would have been worth exploring as an option.

CFEclipse Vs Dreamweaver
Hi all, What IDE do you normally use for CF? I heard a lot of raves about CFEclipse so I downloaded it and use at home. I normally use Dreamweaver at work. Apart from CFEclipse being free, I do not find any considerable edge or advantage over Dreamweaver. (Any CFEclipse developers, no offence please.) Any thoughts on this? May be I am not using it right but CFEclipse lacks mainly, IMHO, in graphical representation. In Dreamweaver, I can go back and fort on Design view and Code view and most of the HTML component creation is a snap. (May be CFEclipse is more geared for pure ColdFusion.) But in CFEclipse I need to type everything in. Well, may be I am not geek enough but just typing everything in for complex UI seem like really a chore to me.

Re: CFEclipse Vs Dreamweaver
CFE is definitely targeted at code-centric developers, while DW is essentially an HTML design tool that has had a lot code-centric stuff bolted on. Neither approach is better or worse, just suited to different people. The most important difference, however, has nothing to do with that. CFE is built upon Eclipse, which brings with it more tools that you could hope to learn about this year. You install Eclipse, and then you can start building the dev environment that you need, not the one that company X thought you needed. For example, DW doesn't integrate with version control, but Eclipse plugins exist for CVS, SVN, Perforce, VSS, and probably others. Want XML editing? There are choices there too: XmlBuddy, oXygen, MyEclipse's XML stuff, and others. That's the best reason I see to use CFE over DW. In all honesty, I still think CFE is lacking compared to DW in some areas (like snippet usability), but the external tools support make it WAY better overall. I might lose 10-15 minutes a day because of stuff DW would make easier, but I'll save an hour or more with all the other integrated tools I can use in it. cheers, barneyb On 1/27/06, PINE Phyo Z [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi all, What IDE do you normally use for CF?

Re: CFEclipse Vs Dreamweaver
If you find that the design view part of DreamWeaver is important to you, it is probably best to stick with that rather than CFEclipse. One of the goals of CFEclipse is to be a code centric tool, which means that we have pretty much no intention of adding design view support.

RE: CFEclipse Vs Dreamweaver
Hi Barney, yes, you are right. When it comes to version control with CVS et al., CFEclipse is best suited. Thanks for pointing that out. Apart from being the CF developer, I am also a Java developer and working on Eclipse platform too. So, I can see the benefits that you describe. Within one tool, you can move from Java to CF to XML to anything else Eclipse is supporting. In that aspect, CFEclipse is cool. May be I should find another Eclipse plug-ins for HTML and CSS for design aspects.

Nonetheless, I can see CFEclipse has the potential and would like to see some design elements considerations in future version. Anyway, that is just my view. A little bit OT but just curious since I am also using WSAD (WebSphere Application Developer) which is on Eclipse platform, is there any way that I can use CFEclipse inside WSAD?

One of the goals of CFEclipse is to be a code centric tool, which means that we have pretty much no intention of adding design view support.

Re: CFEclipse Vs Dreamweaver
Dreamweaver = Windows and Mac Eclipse = Linux, Windows Mac Adobe - Windows, Mac - So I doubt we'll see any change soon... DAM! Outside of this, unless your making straight plain websites like google. Dreamweaver is the way to go... Take your fireworks layout, cut-it up, do some tricky stuff in dreamweaver, Add your CFas needed though the templates and of course look at your website as it's being built. BAM!!! Properties inspector is fairly good in dreamweaver. I could do without having to use a seperate pannel for CFFORM properties and stuff like that but ourside of this everything you need it right there. Yeah your still coding a bunch, but if you CODE CORECTLY it will show up in dreamweaver. I've seen my fair share of scripts which show some type of closed table crap, where you can't see the correct table layout... Just this table cell where you should see a whole application... It migh work like it is but there must be problems in the code if dreamweaver can't even figure out what your coldfusion is doing inside table cells. I've seen this when people used Coldfusion Studio... Outside of this... I'm about to switch to Eclipse just to go back to linux... On 1/27/06, PINE Phyo Z [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Heh heh...

Hi Claude, obviously there's some history to 'createODBCdate' and the function name says it all. I was wondering - now CFMX uses JDBC is there any problems using createODBCdate with JDBC connections?

Many of us would disagree with such a statement; the market suggests that FarCry does appear to compete well and often. This is especially surprising considering it has no marketing machinery behind it -- it simply stands on its own merits. Of course, those of us actively developing FarCry would be very interested to hear what you consider a feature, and those features you feel we might be very very light on. Rather than damning with faint praise I think it would help to hear where you think we can put our efforts to improve things. For example, the most current feature list document for FarCry is 14 pages A4 and was written in 2003 -- and we've come a long way since then. To date, the general efforts of the FarCry community have been focused on providing an extensible platform where it is relatively easy to customise your solution to your specific requirements. It's true, we don't have things like a poll feature or other very simplistic innovations. We try and concentrate on making it easy to write your own poll rather than being compelled to use the products version of a poll, if you get my meaning.

It's free :) 3. Tag completion. Don't know why people think that's a DW only feature 4. CVS and Subversion integration. Have to use 'em and Eclipse tools are uber 5.

But I must say, I admire how Macromedia keeps giving me reasons to buy their products in the midst of competition from open source. Oh, hey, isn't this a cf list? The new features in CF7 were brilliant. No open source tools giving me gateways and report writers (yet). I am now eagerly awaiting the first Adobe CF release.
