CFDUMP not allowed in CFTHREAD in 9 - allowed in 8
This was new, just migrated some applications from an 8 to a 9 server. Part of our code started to fail. We have a process that uses CFDUMP and mails us the result as we run a process. The process sits inside of a CFTHREAD. This works in 8, it fails in 9. Remove the CFTHREAD, the code works - or remove the CFDUMP and the code works. But have CFTHREAD with CFDUMP inside will fail. Is this a reported bug? I couldn't find anything, and it was strange to see this happen moving from 8 to 9. Could this be related to the reduction in allowable CFTHREADS run concurrently from 8 to 9 - does the CFDUMP inside a CFTHREAD somehow count as additional threads being run - and because it's in the CFTHREAD it just fails because it can not que a thread in a thread (grasping fro staws here, but trying to figure this out).

Can I tell CF to dump me all run query names?
Is there a way to ask ColdFusion to dump the names of all the CFQuery resultsets? For example, I have some code that runs several cfqueries - the specific ones change based on circumstance - at the request of a page. What I would like to do is dump some sort of variable created by CF that lists me all the names of the CFquery resultsets. It's late - I've likely not enunciated my problem well.

Re: Can I tell CF to dump me all run query names?
Depends how you've scoped them. Here's a quick example if they're unscoped: cfloop item=CurVar collection=#Variables# cfif isQuery(Variables[CurVar]) cfdump var=#Variables[CurVar]# label=#CurVar# / /cfif /cfloop If you've got multiple scopes used, and/or function local ones, then use a debugging template instead. ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology-Michael-Dinowitz/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:336849 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

Re: Preserve HTML format when inserting into HTML
As far as I know, CF will not encode HTML unless you tell it to. Are you 100% sure you aren't using htmlEditFormat on the data?

SQL ColdFusion Encryption
Hi, I know how to encrypt data using ColdFusion using AES_128. I also know how to encrypt data using MSSQL AES_128.

Re: Finding if a key exists in a struct based on a variable name
Here's what I have:
#iif(StructKeyExists(x.classAssign,#y#head),DE(x.classAssign[#y#head]),DE(''))#
The error I get is:
Element NAMEhead is undefined in a CFML structure referenced as part of an
expression.
Since I couldn't get it working I switched it to an if/else statement and
got the effect I desired, but I don't get why the above code wouldn't work.
Even though I've moved on I'd still love to know why it's not working.
Thanks.

Re: Preserve HTML format when inserting into HTML
When you cfdump something, it escapes it. So if you view source it, you are seeing cfdump's escape. In other words, it isn't the REAL value. I suppose you probably saw my other response (I think we passed each other at the intersection), but if not... If I display the pre-xml value using CFOutput, the HTML looks fine.

Re: Finding if a key exists in a struct based on a variable name
Unfortunately I'm on CF8. And I wonder if the ternary operator would be able
to handle a dynamic value as the output as with my example. IIF works
perfect for exactly the type of example you gave; a simple boolean evaluated
to output a simple string. The problem lies in CF apparently evaluating the
two outputs before determining if the StruckKey exists.

Re: Finding if a key exists in a struct based on a variable name
A lot of people get DE() wrong.
IIF does not short-circuit
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Short-circuit_evaluation), meaning that
your DE() gets evaluated even if the condition is FALSE. So, this will
break:
#iif(false, notFalse, false)#
since notFalse does not exist. Same here:
#iif(true, true, fols)#
since fols does not exist. And finally your code:
#iif(false, DE(x.classAssign[#y#head]), DE(''))#
breaks since x.classAssign[NAMEhead] does not exist.
DE evaluates a STRING parameter and finds double-quotes. If you pass in
a variable, it looks for the value of that variable. Since you are
passing x.classAssign[#y#head], it looks for x.classAssign[NAMEhead]
and breaks.
This will work: evaluate(DE(x.classAssign['#y#head'])) - notice the
single-quotes surrounding #y#head! This is because we don't want DE to
escape this, so we don't want to wrap it around double-quotes!
Here is the code (I used no value instead of , but it's still the
same code that you use):
cfset x.classAssign = {
NameHead = this head,
NoNameHead = that head
} /
cfoutput
cfset y = Name /
#iif(StructKeyExists(x.classAssign,#y#head),
evaluate(DE(x.classAssign['#y#head'])), DE(no value))#hr /
cfset y = NoExist /
#iif(StructKeyExists(x.classAssign,#y#head),
evaluate(DE(x.classAssign['#y#head'])), DE(no value))#hr /
cfset Y = 'Any' /
See how these two differ: br /
#DE(x.classAssign['#y#head'])#br /
#DE('x.classAssign[#y#head]')#
/cfoutput

Re: Finding if a key exists in a struct based on a variable name
So I went back and read the docs for IIF. I haven't looked at them in years
and I'm shocked that I've used it for SO many years without really
knowing exactly how it worked. I would've first read about IIF pre version
5. I can't even find the docs for it. Version 5's description is a little
vague. You learn something new every day I guess. That's awesome. Thanks
again Rex.

This will work: evaluate(DE(x.classAssign['#y#head'])) - notice the
single-quotes surrounding #y#head! This is because we don't want DE to
escape this, so we don't want to wrap it around double-quotes!
Here is the code (I used no value instead of , but it's still the
same code that you use):
cfset x.classAssign = {
NameHead = this head,
NoNameHead = that head
} /
cfoutput
cfset y = Name /
#iif(StructKeyExists(x.classAssign,#y#head),
evaluate(DE(x.classAssign['#y#head'])), DE(no value))#hr /
cfset y = NoExist /
#iif(StructKeyExists(x.classAssign,#y#head),
evaluate(DE(x.classAssign['#y#head'])), DE(no value))#hr /
cfset Y = 'Any' /
See how these two differ: br /
#DE(x.classAssign['#y#head'])#br /
#DE('x.classAssign[#y#head]')#
/cfoutput

So I thought DE meant Delay Evaluation as in Don't evaluate what's in
these little brackets this until you've satisfied the IIF condition.

Re: Preserve HTML format when inserting into HTML
Normally when you put HTML into an XML node, it has to be within cdata. So maybe CF is fixing the HTML for you? Yeah, I was just simplifying things, I do have a cdata tag wrapping the HTML. Doesn't help. ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology-Michael-Dinowitz/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:336890 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
Re: Preserve HTML format when inserting into HTML
I did something similar in a test page, but using the XML functions instead of cfxml. I was not able to reproduce it either...there's something odd about the original XML that is causing this, I guess. But like I said earlier, I created a workaround so I'm not stressing about it. It's just odd. Weird. I can't reproduce this: cfset s = font color=redbfoo/b/font cfxml variable=x root child name=one / /root /cfxml cfset x.root.child[1].xmlText = s cfoutput #x.root.child[1].xmltext# p #s# /cfoutput The value is NOT escaped in the XML, nor in the original variable. ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology-Michael-Dinowitz/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:336891 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
CF Flash
I have a very interesting and good question: If you are using cfpresentation to dynamically build a presentation, how do you access the flash object to get the time setting? I have a client that I am building this for, and it pretty much set up, except that I need to be able to capture where the timer or slider is at if they happen to log out or the session expires. Does this make any sense? I am sure you can make an api call or something, or even use actionscript to grab it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
