RE: Can application scope gateways/DAOs returning an array of Objects?
should I not worry about running 'createObject' on the same local.o_program structure member everytime? The fact that createObject is INSIDE the loop is precisely why it is working now and that is good. When you posted your first real code sample (the second one) with the createObject outside the loop you were only creating one instance of your CFC and reusing it over and over. That is not what you wanted. If you have 7 programs, than you need to create 7 objects. It's not completely obvious to me how 'local' magic is working. It's not magic really. When you place anything (like a CFC) in the application scope it is shared by all running requests. This is the same as a database table that is being used by several requests at once. Changes made by one request will be visible to any other request looking in the table. Think of a CFC in the application scope the same way. There are 3 main scopes in a CFC-- this, variables, and local. This and variables are shared by everyone calling methods on that CFC. Local is specific to a particular method call. If this still does not make sense, PLEASE ask questions now and get it cleared up or you will be asking for pain down the road when your app starts crashing under load due to concurrency issues because you didn't understand how to make thread-safe singletons.

Re: Can application scope gateways/DAOs returning an array of Objects?
So the cfset var local = {} worked fine in our CF8 environment, but CF7 is
complaining about it. Is {} just a CF8 shorthand for struct? I replaced the
{} with StructNew(), and it seems to work. I'm just terrified of screwing this
up and having to chase down some phantom bugs three months from now.

Re: Recent SQL Injection attacks
I know it's not enough but the point was that there has to be a priority in what gets fixed. If there are 300+ query vars to fix, which do you do first? My solution is to fix the numeric vars first and then fix everything else after. In the end it all gets done but until I get to the end, the most dangerous vars have to be hit before the 'less' dangerous ones. It would be prefered to take the app down, fix it, and put it back up but with this client that is not an option. That means I have to work fast and smart to get the job done on a live site.

It almost makes sense to me now... A useful trick if you are creating your CFC in any persistent scope, like the application scope in this case, is to do a cfdump of that scope at the end of the page. Look at all of the vars showing in there. If you have failed to properly local scope a var in a CFC function you will see it sitting there at the top level of the dump. -- Yours, Kym Kovan mbcomms.net.au ~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?

Re: Stored Procedure throwing error in CF but ran successfully
Double-execution of CFML code can happen when people close their custom tags with a trailing slash, not realizing that the closing slash causes a second-run of the custom tag. Most commonly double-execution happens when users double-click submit buttons or when a user gets frustrated at a slow page and refreshes it a few times, although I doubt this is happening in your case since you are able to reproduce the error in a controlled environment. -Mike Chabot On Wed, Jan 13, 2010 at 7:58 PM, Ali Awan aawa...@gmail.com wrote: Brad, Thanks for the helpful suggestions. In terms of numbers of inserts, well it's an insert statement within a cursor loop. There's 305 records being added so it loops 305 times and does an insert. As I mentioned in my last post. When I take my execution page out of the pseudo-fusebox app and run it separately, it works perfectly each time. So what I did was add an application counter in the original app on the query page, and yes it was calling it multiple times for no reason. So fine, I figured, I'd just put an IF statement around the stored proc. However, what I found was that the error was happening even if my counter was 1 or 0, meaning that the first time through, it was still getting a primary key constraint error. So, I have determined that internally, either the CF server or the JDBC driver or some way in which the cfstoredproc is being handled, is executing the stored procedure in SQL multiple times. Even if I have a SQL Profiler, it's not going to help in telling me how to stop that. And if that is true, then how come ColdFusion handles it differently when I pull that CF page out of that app, and run it by itself?

Trying to get my head wrapped around the new orm features.not doing well J. I used an example I got from Manju's blog.trying to get one to many relationships working. I set up a Contacts.cfc with three one to many cfc's (emails, addresses, phoneNumbers). Then I created an index.cfm to set things up and display results. I got an error. So I commented out all the code on index.cfm and tried again.same error. I'm guessing that would mean the error must be in application.cfc, but it's pretty simple and I don't see what might be wrong. Could the error be coming from one of the other cfc's even though index is commented out? Does Coldfusion attempt to build the map as soon as it see ormenabled = true?

jQuery tableSorter tab plugins
Hello all, I am having a dilemma regarding two jQuery plugins: the tableSorter and tab. Here is a brief summary of the problem: 1. I have a task list, which is further broken into sub-categories such as Problems, Maintenance and Requests. 2. I am using the jQuery tab plugin to make each sub-category a tab. This works well. 3. Then for each tab, I am also implementing the tableSorter plugin so that users can click on table headers and sort either ascending or descending on that column. 4. The tableSorter plugin only works for the first tab. I've tried switching the tabs around and discovered that regardless which one is made the first tab, it only works for it. 5. I've got the tableSorter plugin in multiple places throughout my application without tabs so I know it definitely works. I **think** the cause of the problem is: the task lists are done through a custom tag which gets called for each tab to conjure up the list. So even though the tableSorter plugin gets called 3 times, they all have the same table ID which makes jQuery think they are one big happy table family! I do not want to not use custom tag for my task lists because that would lead to gross duplication of code... but I am also a jQuery newbie... I understand in theory that I'd have to pass in a new table ID to the jQuery tableSorter plugin each time it is called... but I am a little hazy on the syntax of how that can be done. I am sure someone on this list has done that before. If so, I would be most grateful for any suggestions! [?] Cheers, Qing Xia ~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?

Re: jQuery tableSorter tab plugins
D'oh!
Please ignore question! Apparently just writing the question down on paper
helps clear the thought. Don't know what I was thinking...
I could easily make the table name an attribute to the custom tag and then
do this in my call to the jQuery tableSorter plugin:
script type=text/javascript
//jQuery table sorter function
$(document).ready(function()
{$(#cfoutput#attributes.tableName#/cfoutput).tablesorter();});
/script

Re: CFFILE move is copying
Here's a thought on what might be going on (and if so, I'm open to suggestions). Basically, if I'm writing to the badFiles location, I have almost invariably broken out of a cfloop file=whatever loop before reaching the end of the file (using cfbreak). Is it possible that ColdFusion still has a lock on the file and, therefore, can't delete it? (I'm thinking this may be the case, because right now I can't manually delete that file from the source folder, either). Assuming that's the case, any ideas on how to get around it? Because this is a process we don't want to bog down unnecessarily, I'd rather not read the whole file in (the old way of looping over a file) or loop over the entire file if I don't have to.

Re: CFFILE move is copying
Basically, if I'm writing to the badFiles location, I have almost invariably broken out of a cfloop file=whatever loop before reaching the end of the file (using cfbreak). Is it possible that ColdFusion still has a lock on the file and, therefore, can't delete it? (I'm thinking this may be the case, because right now I can't manually delete that file from the source folder, either). Yes, I think that's very likely. Assuming that's the case, any ideas on how to get around it? Because this is a process we don't want to bog down unnecessarily, I'd rather not read the whole file in (the old way of looping over a file) or loop over the entire file if I don't have to. You could copy the file, then schedule a task to delete it in the future. Or, you could see how long file locks exist in your OS and see if you can make that shorter.

Re: CFFILE move is copying
What about firing off another thread to delete it after X amount of time? Or maybe not deleting it right away, and instead adding the file to a list, and then moving/deleting the list at the end (maybe with a sleep() first?) -- Dogs and philosophers do the greatest good and get the fewest rewards.

Re: Can application scope gateways/DAOs returning an array of Objects?
You have not var'd q_programs - use local.q_programs otherwise every
concurrent request will be overwriting the same variable and you'll
get unpredictable results.

Re: Can application scope gateways/DAOs returning an array of Objects?
You have not var'd q_programs Good catch. As someone mentioned earlier, all function local variables must var scoped. That includes things you often forget, like: query names, loop indexes, etcetera. ~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?

Login protection and verification
I want to protect my site login. I first want to lock users out after so many failed login attempts. Lock them out for a specified amount of time. I also want to require them to click a link from an email that they receive the first time they login from a computer. The email verification seems to get real complicated real fast when I try to program that completely myself. I was wondering if anyone knows of any articles or even better, any plugins or cfc that have been written that are good examples or take care of this type of issue.

RE: Login protection and verification
The email verification seems to get real complicated real fast when I try to program that completely myself. Basically, your user table needs at least these two columns: status: use this signify if an account is pending verification verificationKey: when the account is created, place a random string in here (a guid works well) When the account is started send out an E-mail to the E-mail address that they supplied when they signed up. In the e-mail, provide a link back to your site that accepts the verificationKey and userID in the URL. Only the person owning that E-mail address will have that key. When they click the link, if the verificationKey matches the one stored for their userID, activate the account. ~Brad ~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?
