Re: Large Number of CF DSNs and SQL Performance Question
Hey Everyone, This is more of a performance question. We have a client in the securities industry for which we have built a client management system in CFML, that enables our securities client to create fully managed database solutions for each of their downstream clients. Due to regulations in the securities industry, our client is required to maintain seperate databases for each of their downstream clients. To date our CF server had about 150 data sources the main applications references, depending on which downstream client is logging in. Has anyone bumped into an upper limit of DSNs permitted in Cold Fusion? Our client is getting ready to expand and add another 200 clients, and we are a little concerned if CF is going to work well for this since there are no dynamic DSNs. Also, has anyone run into anything in the Microsoft SQL Server side about having that many different connections to the DB server? Technically we run 3 web servers load balanced for this client, so we are really talking about 3 x 150 clients, or 450 connections to the SQL server, growing to probably 900 in a year. Thoughts?

Re: alternatives to cfcontent to allow large downloads
Instead of using CFCONTENT, you can use CF to create a temporary URL, then let your web server serve the file directly.

Re: One thing I've always wanted to build... breadcrumb trail...
I have a breadcrumb solution that I created for a Mach-II app. You could probably pull out relevant parts of the code and use it in Application.cfm. At one point I attempted to make it window aware so that if a link spawned a new window or tab, it would keep track of that. I don't think this part works 100%. However, it looks a bit like this: session.struct_crumbTrails - structure for window numbers (e.g., session.struct_crumbTrails.1, session.struct_crumbTrails.2) session.struct_crumbTrails.1 - an array of events (Mach-II speak for pages or requests) session.struct_crumbTrails.1[1] - a structure to hold the event name (such as home), args (query string variables stored as a struct), and the page name (what the crumb trail will display). It is probably a bit overly complicated due to the window number part, so unless that is really something you want, it should probably be stripped out. I also have some hooks in there so that if you want a the crumb trail to be reset you can do that. It also does some checking to make sure the same request doesn't show up twice, like on a refresh or from a bookmark or something. I probably need to double check with my employer before sharing the code, but I don't think it will be a problem (they are on Pacific time, so not in yet). The code is Mach-II specific and refers to an event object and such, but I think the code could be modified pretty easily. I'll post back here and possibly on my blog if/when I can share the code.

RE: Coldfusion 8 and Flex 2
I am trying to configure messaging-config.xml file to talk to a flex application. The flex application keeps telling me ââ¬Å'Unknown destinationââ¬Â. Doeââ¬â¢s anyone have any Ideas? First, make sure that your server configuration is correct. You can easily do this by starting CF as an application, then watching the startup in the console. If you get a stack trace after MessageBrokerService init, your configuration is wrong. That said, I don't see anything wrong with your messaging-config.xml. Second, make sure your Flex project knows where your server config files are. It needs to identify destinations, channels, etc at compile time. You can check this under Project ... Properties.

Money datatype in SQL Server
Is there any bottom line recommendation on using the Money datatype in SQL Server? I've googled and found a lot of folks say not to use it because of accuracy issues (and of course, the fact that it's proprietary), but I haven't seen any that suggest a better alternative. My understanding is that Money is exactly the same as Decimal(19,4)... so if there are accuracy issues with Money, wouldn't those same issues exist with a Decimal datatype? I saw one link that suggested that Floats would be the most accurate... but I thought floats were inherently *not* accurate. Can anybody shed a bit of light? Thanks!

I'm wondering if anyone can point me towards a solution that does this other than CF Report Builder? My stock answer is JasperReports. iReport is the visual designer, and it's quite nice (destroys the Report Builder, IMO). It has it's own XML format for creating reports, which is swell for use with some kind of code generator. Building PDFs and word docs and whatnot can eat up a lot of CPU cycles on a loaded server, so I started using JasperServer on a separate box, and just talk to it through the webservice it provides. It exports reports in PDF, RTF, XLS, CSV, and jasperserver will do auto-email stuff, so every Tuesday you can automatically send someone a report, or whatever.

Just like money decimal is an exact datatype, i.e. no subtle rounding
errors at the 8+ digit are introduced. That does not mean there are no
algorithmic rounding errors. I demonstrated a very clear one where
stripping the currency symbol gave 3 euro and 3 dollar the same
values. There are other possible algorithmic errors such as rounding
between operations instead of only at the end. (Or not rounding between
operations if that is what is required for your currency.)
And if they do, is the solution to just be
judicious in the use of Round() functions? or is using Float the
preferred option.
float is never the preferred solution when accuracy matters because it
adds the rounding problems to all the algorithmic problems.

Extending ColdFusion 8 servemonitoring.cfc
Is it possible to extend the servermonitoring cfc?
I'm writing a POC app and I thought it would be a simple thing to extend the
SM.cfc so that I wouldn't have to write the methods myself. Also, that I
wouldn't have to bother creating the object.
Just wanted to check if it's possible because I'm getting a JRun error when I
try to hit my CFC in the browser:

Importing Lists with empty values

Re: Application.cfc variables
the 'this' scope corresponds to the CFAPPLICATION tag, not the application scope. If you want to set stuff into the application scope you have to use it literally. A concrete example: setting this.name is equivalent to passing the NAME attribute to CFAPPLICATION, which in turn is available as the application.applicationname variable. cheers, barneyb On Tue, Jun 10, 2008 at 3:58 PM, Alex Pogodin [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi everyone!

RE: Can't create Verity collections
At 06:05 PM 2008-06-09, you wrote: Is the verity engine enabled? By default it is not enabled in CF8 and you have to run a command line utility. It should be, when I run a cfcollection tag or ask verity to create the collection via the CF admin, it tries, but it presents me with an error. So I assume the error pre-supposes it's working. I don't know if you are going to be able to use the verity collections from CF7 with CF8. I was unable to get CF8 to recognize CF6 verity collections. I don't really care about the CF 7 collection, the only intent was that if I could not create one, that I would try to map to the existing one. No luck on either fronts. I'm still open to options.
