Second, it forces you to watch how much logic you put into your circuits fuses. A lot of people were shortcutting and taking advantage of the circuits, putting code like cfqueries in there, but the limited XML syntax forces you to stand back and think about your application. Third, it's easier to parse. I mentioned yesterday in this thread that the XML is parsed into plain cfml files, but it's not just a translation of cfif, cfinclude, cfset, etc. There are a few compiler directives, specifically the do action, which compiles and includes inline the contents of another fuseaction. This is what gives a lot of the performance benifits over FB 3. Instead of cfmodule or cfinclude, the code is on the same parsed file. So the syntax isn't simpler or easier, but the outcome is probably worth it. -nathan strutz http://www.dopefly.com/ On 7/2/06, Claude Schneegans [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: The FB5 core is basically a compiler that transforms the XML into vanilla CFML.

Re: Good blog post on the frameworks debate
Claude, You've tried to make your point with frameworks, but you haven't made any factual statements. It's fine if you don't want to use frameworks, but if you want anyone else to not use them then I think you need to document any issues with them as opposed to things like Includes CF 4.5 and CF 5 backwards compatibility when the latest versions don't. There was a time when fusebox did this, but it was seperate files, so if you didn't use CF 5, then you would not even have to use that file. My point is this, open frameworks are a good idea because it allows more than just you access to the code and an open discussion on issues. We all understand that frameworks forces a developer to learn something new, in most of these cases it forces the developer to learn OOP or MVC. But that doesn't mean learning those methodologies is a bad thing. It only helps your marketability and allows for you to move to other languages if a business decision forces your hand before you're ready.

Re: Good blog post on the frameworks debate
Tom, All of the new frameworks use CFC, so they won't even work on CF 4.5 or CF 5. One of the frameworks I know , fusebox 3, used a cfswitch in the main file and included a specific framework depending on which server you were on. You didn't need this logic, you could just include the correct file on which server you were on. There was no logic in the framework file that had different syntax based on what CF version you were on , which would make the code harder to work with. I have worked on code that I needed to work on multiple versions of CF and with how the tags change and how error trapping works in CF it is almost impossible to have one file that works on many different versions of CF.

Re: Statistical computations in CF?
I'm working on an app that pulls together a client's data for a given period of time, and produces a forecast for what future data might look like. I've been using the CFLIB forecast() function written by James Stevenson, but am interested in hearing about any other tools that are either CF-based or could be easily integrated into a CF app. The CFLIB forecast() function does a least-squares analysis, but doesn't seem to do a great job on data which has a definite pattern but is not very straight-line. tia, Reed Reed, Depending on how good you are at statistics, there is a matrix algebra cfc on the Adobe CF Exchange (http://www.antiwrap.com/?1022) that you can use to construct most advanced stats equations, such as various regressions, GLM equations etc. In my own stats related site on meta-analysis (http://www.antiwrap.com/?1023) I mostly use CF's built in functions (ArraySum, ArrayAverage) to perform the analysis. Another very good resource is CFLib.org.

Still, there are ways to get around it (hey, we're all hackers here), but it takes more work. Third, it's easier to parse. Oh n, please, not again with this old BS! This was the main point with people claiming advanges of Pascal: it's easier to compile! But please, c'mon, since when the purpose of a language is to be parsed or compiled? A language exists to make applications easier to develop for developers, period! Whether it is formal or not, easier or more difficult for the programer to write a parser, is completely insignificant. That's fine, call it how you see it. I see it as an open source community project made by seasoned CF developers. They're not trying to recreate the CF parsing engine or the JDK (which would then be incompatible with BlueDragon) in an application framework. They're just trying to automate some code gen techniques and create a framework for strucuring your applications. XML is in and quickly easily accomplishes a lot of the goals for the framework. It sounds like an easy choice for me, and the same arguments could be made for M2 and MG. Anyways, all to say this: The XML syntax isn't necessarily easier or better than CFML, but for what this, or other XML-based frameworks do for you, the extra brain space is worth using these frameworks. OK, it may be less worse the FB3, but the question is is it any better than plain vanillia CF? The truth is, it is trying to be better than FB3, which is of course an improvement on FB 2 1. I've said it before: Everywhere I've gone to work on pre-built code has some application running a FB1/2 style process (the main page with a big cfswitch, including files).

It was a different error (Null pointer exception), but I found it odd that it was the same line of code. What's even a bit more weird is that the problem seemed to fix itself on my dev box. I went back to it a little later and, having made no changes...hit refresh and it just...worked. Google's not turning much up on the error...so I figured I'd see if anybody out there might have some ideas.

Re: I feel like fighting...
If you're hard-core OO, look at Mach-II and Model-Glue. If you don't do OO and don't want to start, look at Fusebox. If you like OO, but don't want to go for broke, look at Fusebox with an OO-ish backend. If you don't want to pay the performance cost for the flexibility of an implicit invocation architecture, Fusebox is your best bet. If you want stellar scaffolding support for autogenerating data entry/management applications, Model-Glue Unity is your best bet. In all cases, however, the only way to approach the problem is to give each candidate framework at least a few days of trials (preferably a bit longer) and see how you like the nuts and bolts. For any given app, it's possible to use any framework, but certain apps are definitely suited to certain frameworks (specifically implicit invocation capabilities). NB: all lists are in alphabetical order to avoid the appearance of preferential treatment. ;) My personal choice is Fusebox controller/view with a CFC-based backend. No business logic in the fusebox. My second choice (and really only in slot #2 because of my familiarity with Fusebox) would be the identical CFC-based backend with a Model-Glue controller/view. While Mach-II got me very excited when it first came out, it's not a good fit for my programming nature.

Snake, I said nothing deragatory to you, I asked you to not post on this topic because what you had to say wasn't relative to the question asked.

ColdFusion is how I pay the bills, so I try to use whatever free time (such as lunch breaks or 15 min breaks) I have at work to learn new things. I also use some of my time in the morning to surf through some of the blog feeds to see if there is anythign I can use on the projects I am working on. I'm very happy for you that you have so much free time, but please don't try and shove your lifestyle down other peoples throats, we don't need any more dippy Daves on here, one is enough.

Re: Framework suggestions
Also, one of the main benefits of the XML is that the program structure and flow is described there, and not among the rest of the CF code. This enables tools like Fusebuilder, fuseminder, etc. that can document and modify the flow+structure of the application programmatically.

Still, there are ways to get around it (hey, we're all hackers here), but it takes more work. Third, it's easier to parse. Oh n, please, not again with this old BS! This was the main point with people claiming advanges of Pascal: it's easier to compile! But please, c'mon, since when the purpose of a language is to be parsed or compiled? A language exists to make applications easier to develop for developers, period! Whether it is formal or not, easier or more difficult for the programer to write a parser, is completely insignificant. That's fine, call it how you see it. I see it as an open source community project made by seasoned CF developers. They're not trying to recreate the CF parsing engine or the JDK (which would then be incompatible with BlueDragon) in an application framework. They're just trying to automate some code gen techniques and create a framework for strucuring your applications. XML is in and quickly easily accomplishes a lot of the goals for the framework. It sounds like an easy choice for me, and the same arguments could be made for M2 and MG. Anyways, all to say this: The XML syntax isn't necessarily easier or better than CFML, but for what this, or other XML-based frameworks do for you, the extra brain space is worth using these frameworks. OK, it may be less worse the FB3, but the question is is it any better than plain vanillia CF? The truth is, it is trying to be better than FB3, which is of course an improvement on FB 2 1. I've said it before: Everywhere I've gone to work on pre-built code has some application running a FB1/2 style process (the main page with a big cfswitch, including files).

First, it's not language specific. This is the weakest point because not many people care whether or not they can move their controller layer between different languages, but it sounds nice. Second, it forces you to watch how much logic you put into your circuits fuses. A lot of people were shortcutting and taking advantage of the circuits, putting code like cfqueries in there, but the limited XML syntax forces you to stand back and think about your application. Third, it's easier to parse. I mentioned yesterday in this thread that the XML is parsed into plain cfml files, but it's not just a translation of cfif, cfinclude, cfset, etc. There are a few compiler directives, specifically the do action, which compiles and includes inline the contents of another fuseaction. This is what gives a lot of the performance benifits over FB 3. Instead of cfmodule or cfinclude, the code is on the same parsed file.

AJAX is your friend here. When the form is submitted use AJAX to send it to a stand alone process, then redirect the page to where you want to go. The action will then take place in the background.

Action page continues processign their form data while they are visiting another page I want to do this because I have A LOT of variables to process, and I don't want them to wait, so is it possible to continue processing their request after they've been redirected, or does it cutt off? ~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:245345 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

RE: odd SQL Server 2k5 error message
I would be careful on doing that on a shared host though. You wont be very popular and it could effectively breaks their TC's. Playing around with the cfadmin settings can easily break other peoples sites on the servers. -Original Message- From: Jochem van Dieten [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 03 July 2006 22:52 To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: odd SQL Server 2k5 error message Charlie Griefer wrote: This is a shared host, so I don't have access to the CF Admin. is there another way to determine this? Not if your host has a proper configuration. If they don't you can use the Admin API, CreateObject(blahblahblah servicefactory) and cffile for neo-query.xml.

RE: CFFILE uploads
Well, I guess you could do it the traditional way (e.g iframes) and set the Target to _top That's what they USED to do, but the main reason that I want this is so I can show a spinner thingy that says loading... please be patient You wouldn't even have to post the file to an IFRAME to do that... When the onsubmit event for the form fires, just trigger off the spinning image effect you want. The file is since in the header of the request sent to the server, so the page won't change until the server starts sending some data back--which would be after the file is uploaded in its entirety. You could use a lightbox-style effect that occurs during the form's onsubmit event. -Dan ~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:245349 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

Something to keep in mind is that neither of these plugins have been updated for quite a while, so you use them with new Eclipse versions at your own risk. -- Mike -Original Message- From: Kev McCabe [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, July 03, 2006 8:51 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Eclipse 3.2 VSS 1.61 Cool, Never seen ESSTP May have to install tomorrow while in the office, if its more like VSS may help a few people I know that are having issues using it correctly :-) and stop _BACKUP's gr lol Cheers -Original Message- From: Michael Wolfe [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 03 July 2006 23:21 To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Eclipse 3.2 VSS 1.61 Kev, No problems, really.
