Choosing an ORM
Hello Guys, I've just started work on a large scale rebuild of my core business application, and to aid me the gruelling task I'm toying with implementing MG, ColdSpring and one of the ORM's. I've done some small work with these in the past but used Reactor. Now, I'm sure I've read somewhere that Reactor and MG got a divorce, and that MG would most likely end up sleeping with Transfer, is this the case? Another thing to take into consideration is that I had planned to take all my queries and move them into stored procs on my SQL Server as some of them were getting pretty fat and needed a helping hand to keep performance where I want it, will I still be able to do this when working with an ORM?

Re: Choosing an ORM
I'm totally biased, so I won't give you an opinion one over the other - however, to note, if you are using stored procs, then you won't be able to use Transfer. Simply put - it writes all that SQL for you, so you don't have to... so why would you need the integration?

RE: Choosing an ORM
Morning, From what I can see, it had a divorce in that it is not longer intrinsically tied into MG. With MG:U you have ORM Adaptors which means you can choose either Reactor or Transfer (or any other should they come about or exist). Stored Procs aren't going to really fit the ORM bill it really has to be direct object to table access from what I can see. What I have found with Reactor is that since it is an ActiveRecord process it has to be a 1:1 object mapping to a real physical table. It is less flexible that Transfer. With Transfer you have a little bit more flexibility with decorators but it still lacks in some areas (and excels in others) - composite keys is one area but I know Mark is working on a fix for this so it can support them.

RE: Choosing an ORM
From experience, it can be a easy to choose SP's for their speed, but I have found that cfquery can perform just as well, and even better in some cases. Sure you get the multiple recordset ability with an SP but unless you are using CF8 you still cannot cache results - unless you roll your own mechanism which is an arse. They are also harder to debug but that is no doubt something you know and can live with! I would use them but I would think about using them sparingly and if you can to use an ORM - don't us them at all. -Original Message- From: Robert Rawlins - Think Blue [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 04 June 2007 09:47 To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Choosing an ORM Thanks Neil and Mark, I remember the whole 'active' records and really liked that concept, but to be honest I've gotten myself tied quite nicely into using stored procs recently and don't really want to move back, I'm quite happy.

RE: Choosing an ORM
No worries, Yeah, if you are working on large imports/data management then I would look at using SP's/DTS/SSIS but I would no doubt trigger them asynchronous as well and I would probably not use the web to control the jobs outcome (as in a job completion notification) as long running requests like that as a bitch to handle and are wasted resources unless you have a dedicated instance doing all that legwork etc. You want to encrypt all of your data in and out of your app?

Stored Procs aren't going to really fit the ORM bill it really has to be direct object to table access from what I can see. What I have found with Reactor is that since it is an ActiveRecord process it has to be a 1:1 object mapping to a real physical table. It is less flexible that Transfer. With Transfer you have a little bit more flexibility with decorators but it still lacks in some areas (and excels in others) - composite keys is one area but I know Mark is working on a fix for this so it can support them.

RE: Content Compression
Neil, Anyone using Content Compression with any of their sites/apps (on the fly or otherwise). If so, what are you using what kind of speed improvements are you getting if any? I am particularly interested in IIS implementations. Performance improvements are going to be relative to your app and your servers. If you're pages contain lots of HTML overhead (which can happen to apps that rely heavily on table / elements for layout) then you could see a sizable difference in the bandwidth needed to xfer your output from the server to the client. On a recent project I migrated an older application that tends to be very markup heavy to a new server. It's not uncommon for it to produce pages that are 100k+ of markup. Using IIS6's native compression has drastically help us reduce the bandwidth needed to xfer these files, which does make some of the larger reports on our page appear to load faster. However, it's important to notice that compression does not really give you speed improvements. It actually adds more processing time to the request (while for dynamic content--since it needs to be recompressed on every page request.) However, it can help drastically reduce the amount of bandwidth need to transfer files to the client. In our situation, the time that it takes to compress most pages is barely noticeable and the gain in delivery time far outweighs the additional overhead. I can't qualify these into real numbers (partly because the migration to new servers also meant migrating to faster servers,) but in my testing there definitely was a significant decrease in delivery times after applying compression. If you're paying for bandwidth usage, compression can also help reduce your hosting costs as well (or at least allow you to serve more pages than before.) -Dan ~| ColdFusion MX7 by Adobe® Dyncamically transform webcontent into Adobe PDF with new ColdFusion MX7.

RE: Choosing an ORM
Well When it generates the code it's not blazingly fast. A simple application takes about 5 seconds on my laptop, a more complicated one takes anywhere from 20 seconds to a minute. (On server class hardware it is obviously much faster.) But that's why it's a passive code generator, instead of an active one. However once the code is generated, it's executed pretty fast, assuming that the underlying table structures are properly indexed and whatnot.

For those of you who don't know, Coldfusion is built upon Java. Someone has taken it upon themselves to write a Java library, called Quertus, which parses PHP code. Someone else then built upon THAT and wrote a Coldfusion library which references the Quertus library and allows you to combine PHP and Coldfusion code on the same page, pass variables back and forth to each other and more. http://corfield.org/blog/index.cfm/do/blog.entry/entry/ColdFusion_8_running_ PHP I don't know what the speed is (probably not as fast as the native zend interpreter, but still...PHP code mixed in with CF code is pretty kick ass.

You have three options: * Give up. * Move CF onto the web server or Apache onto the CF server. * Create a proxy in Apache to pipe requests over to the ColdFusion server. This is basically what most Rails developers do if they don't use CGI so there are lots of tutorials on it.

Cfreport and the right data
So I have been searching the net for about 3 days on this and no help so I now turn to you guys for help. I have a report I built in Crystal Reports 11 and saved it into a dirctory called Reports. The Reports folder is in the same directory as every thing else that my page uses. I use a .cfc to the data for the report and on my return form the cfc to the index.cfm I call a page called GoalReport.cfm in it I have the cfreport tag. It does dsiplay the report just fine the only thing that it dosent due is bring up the right data. I have check my table time after time and the table has the right info in it but the report displays the old data. How do I make it display the data that is in the table.

RE: Need hekp with INstallation of CF7 Apache
I am having some trouble with the wsconfig utility. I have CF 7 installed on its built in websercer on p[ort 8300 using the multi configuration setup. However I need it to be served up by apache 1.3.x which is on another server, seperate from the CF box - both Solaris unix servers. I tried the instructions below with no success. Somehow since Apache is not on the same server, it complains that it cannot find the directory as the Apache server is on another box. How do I refer to another server using the instruction below??? wsconfig -server servername -ws Apache -dir apache config directory - coldfusion -v To set this up, you'd first need to install CF (or minimally wsconfig) on the Apache box, then run wsconfig from there. You could then turn off CF on that machine. This configuration is often called distributed mode. However, you might find it easier to use a proxy as Damien described.

Re: Run PHP code inline on a Coldfusion page
Oh I'm not knocking .NET integration. I'm sure that it helps a lot of folks. I'm just saying that I'd personally never use or buy a CFML server that was compiled in .NET. It's a personal fact, and I doubt I'm alone in that thought. That's all I was saying. ;) I commend NewAtlanta for spearheading the CFML/.NET integration idea. It's interesting to me that Adobe is playing catch-up in this regard.

Re: Run PHP code inline on a Coldfusion page
Simply because you personally immediately see the benefits of integrating PHP into CFML code, doesn't mean that the value is not there. It only means that you can't see it (yet). Personally, I see a lot I could do with this. One example would be that I've been using CFEXECUTE in conjunction with command-line PHP for a while now in order to generate high-quality image thumbnails. The GD libraries that are included in PHP are far superior to anything I've ever seen from a Java environment. With this innovation - I can just write PHP code right in the middle of my CFML code to generate my thumbnails. No funky code separation with CFEXECUTE - and much simpler variable sharing. Previously I've had to pass variables via command line attributes. This method is much simpler. If you want to do PHP, use PHP. Haha - I don't even know where to begin with this statement. Isn't using PHP the whole point? And why just use one language when I can combine them and leverage the advantages of each? Silly human. =P The power and freedom to choose is *always* a good thing.

RE: How best to represent this hierarchy of data
It's pretty simple, really. This is a simplified version of how we store our entities in contact manager which can be nested n levels deep. dbo.enity - entity_id PK entity_name entity_type_id FK (entity_type.entity_type_id) entity_id_parent FK (entity.entity_id) dbo.entity_type --- entity_type_id PK entity_type_name The entity_type table stores all the possible types (company, department, employee) and we store the corresponding id in the entity table for normalization. If you were view your data as a hierarchy, each node would be represented by a record in the entity table where each record's entity_id_parent value was the entity_id of it's parent record. Does that make sense? I'm not entirely sure what you are storing, but it sounds like you want to nest records in a hierarchy and have large amount of flexibility without having to have a table for each level. ~Brad -Original Message- From: Will Tomlinson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, June 04, 2007 7:55 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: How best to represent this hierarchy of data Brad, Could you please show me the table structure laid out like I showed mine?

So if you're using CF8, you might just as well use CF8's built-in - and very high quality - image manipulation tools.

If people show enough interest - and I can get some dedicated collaborators on the project - then it might be worth cracking open the source of Quercus and wiring it more tightly into ColdFusion to provide better native data support and library integration. Mostly, however, I did it for fun. -- Sean A Corfield -- (904) 302-SEAN An Architect's View -- http://corfield.org/ If you're not annoying somebody, you're not really alive. -- Margaret Atwood ~| Upgrade to Adobe ColdFusion MX7 Experience Flex 2 MX7 integration create powerful cross-platform RIAs http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion/flex2/?sdid=RVJQ Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:280065 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4

Although I will point out that the way I've had to implement caching and script compilation, each individual script block has to be single threaded (although multiple *different* blocks can execute concurrently).

I haven't tried data source integration yet - that may require cracking open the Quercus source and hacking it around some (to get integration with ColdFusion).

It *may* work out of the box (try it someone!) but it may well not. 3) The PHP apps can integrate with Java objects and code. Yes, and in the docs for running PHP in CF8, I show how PHP can manipulate CF data structures (which are really just Java). That aspect is definitely very powerful. -- Sean A Corfield -- (904) 302-SEAN An Architect's View -- http://corfield.org/ If you're not annoying somebody, you're not really alive. -- Margaret Atwood ~| Macromedia ColdFusion MX7 Upgrade to MX7 experience time-saving features, more productivity. http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion?sdid=RVJW Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:280067 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
Re: Run PHP code inline on a Coldfusion page
There are a number of reasons to run PHP from a J2EE server using Quercus (as Sean's work does), rather than deploying PHP itself; 1) PHP should be run on a single threaded webserver, as some of the C libraries used in PHP apps aren't thread safe. This means running Apache 1, or Apache 2 in prefork mode. CF (for example) is quite happy running in multithreaded configurations of Apache. 2) The PHP apps automatically get the benefit of datasource connection pooling, clustering and all the other good things J2EE provides. 3) The PHP apps can integrate with Java objects and code. http://quercus.caucho.com/ On 6/5/07, Robertson-Ravo, Neil (RX) [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Yeah, PHP integration just seems pointless.

Re: How best to represent this hierarchy of data
At 08:54 PM 6/4/2007, you wrote: If I were you I would just use a single table with a parent_id concept. That is how we store our contact manager information. All companies, departments, and contacts are all an entity and they can be nested n levels deep. We have an entity table with a type (contact, department, company etc.) and a entity_id_parent column which points to the parent record. Records with a NULL parent at top level. Depending on how many levels you have it can get tricky to figure out ancestor or descendant relationships, but recursion lends itself nicely to this kind of data. The best part is it has no restrictions. ~Brad Also something to consider is a 'sortNum' tblTier1 - tier1code PK tier1title [more fields] tier2code / parentID sortnum varchar(50) * 01 02 0201 020101 020102 0202 020201 03 04 0401 05 0501 050101 05010101 0501010101 050101010101 050101010102 0501010102 0501010103 0501010104 0501010105 050101010501 050101010502 05010102 05010103 0501010301 0501010302 0502 0503 06 07 Using like in your queries allows for all sorts of familial ancestry and descendants revelations. It may be a little redundant considering you've already got parentID, but for displaying deep descendantry quickly, it's pretty easy. Also it helps sort your entities. Moving them up and down can be tricky, though, especially when it involves a lot of children and siblings. Boy, I'll tell you, that 05 entity was BUSY. Mik * I think 25 levels deep is probably enough, no? And up to 99 children per entity?
