RE: (ot) passing URL parameters
My issue was calling a page that sent me an Excel (actually a CSV) file with passed parameters via the URL. I was getting a page not found error *unless* I introduced an error (like changing the name of one of the URL variables). Then I would get an error page. My conclusion was that the page not found error was erroneous and something else was the problem. One suggestion was: Most probably a caching issue, the 404 page is cached in the browser or an intermediate proxy. Turns out that was not the issue. Since you're creating a CSV file (my host doesn't have the latest CF version) you use #chr(13)# and #chr(44)# for linefeeds and commas. Turns out I had a typo and had #chr13# in one place, so the error was a variable not found error that I finally found after stripping out all the file creation language. Just an FYI in case you find yourself in the same boat. ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:340558 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

iCal Version 4.0.3/vCalendar Auto Accept Issue
HoF iCal Version 4.0.3/vCalendar Experts: We have a tool for our students that will allow them to export an .ics file to import into either their Google calendar, Outlook Calendar, or iCal/Entourage for Mac/Macbook. Recently we had a student that after importing the .ics file into a MacBook iCal program had to manually accept/deny every event in her calendar. Is there a way to add in an auto accept in our vCalendar code that will make that change? We have tested our code against the iCal Version 3.0.8 (1287) and it works fine. Then we tested Version 4.0.3 (1388) and the problem showed up here. I did find some documentation that I thought would work/help me find what I needed (Ref: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/rfc5545/?include_text=1) and it had the option of participate accept/deny so I tried that and it didn't seem to work. If any of you have experience working with this I would love any advice in this matter. Thank you!

session.exportData somewhere so that it can be called?
How do I hook them up so that the getAllAsStruct array is available as
#arguments.data#.

My environment is set up for using session variables. I need to cfset session.exportData somewhere so that it can be called? Obviously, I don't know exactly what you're trying to do, but here's a pretty good guess: the real point is to export some customer data as an Excel file. So you probably want another CFC (call it a service component), perhaps called CustomerService.cfc. In there you may have a method called exportCustomerData, which might possibly take some arguments, such as a Customer Type, a date range, or other filtering mechanisms. The CustomerService would call a method on CustomerGateway that retrieves the query data. While the gateway *could* build the struct, you generally want to leave that sort of work to another component, using the gateway strictly for database interaction. So perhaps the gateway's method is just GetAll (or whatever's appropriate, depending on whether you need to apply filters in the query), and you build the struct (or array, or just leave it as a query, depending on what you need), in the CustomerService. Then the CustomerService calls the Export.cfc's method, and does whatever's necessary - saving the spreadsheet, returning it to the browser, whatever. Unless you have a reason to persist the query data from request to request, you don't want or need to place it in the session scope. So: 1. Request calls method on CustomerService, optionally with filter data. 2. CustomerService calls CustomerGateway to get data, optionally with filter. 3. CustomerService manipulates data into what array/structure/etc. you want (this could even be done by some sort of utility cfc) 4. CustomerService call Export.exportToExcel(data), passing in the data it has manipulated. 5. CustomerService completes its action by returning the filename of the spreadsheet, or whatever's appropriate to your needs. From there on, it kinda depends on what you want to do with the spreadsheet. -- Thanks, Tom Tom McNeer MediumCool http://www.mediumcool.com 1735 Johnson Road NE Atlanta, GA 30306 404.589.0560 ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:340579 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
Re: How to set cfset session variable to be called in a cfc?
I am trying to export the data which is an arrayCollection in Flex to Excel. I followed this article, http://viconflex.blogspot.com/2007/02/export-data-from-flex-app-using.html, and got all the components working. Now the last step is to make the data (arrayCollection) available in #arguments.data#, I guess. I am very new with ColdFusion. I have used Flex for awhile with Java as the backend. I appreciate it if you can help me to resolve this last step. Thank you very much. Faye Larson Dallas Faye, Obviously, I don't know exactly what you're trying to do, but here's a pretty good guess: the real point is to export some customer data as an Excel file. So you probably want another CFC (call it a service component), perhaps called CustomerService.cfc. In there you may have a method called exportCustomerData, which might possibly take some arguments, such as a Customer Type, a date range, or other filtering mechanisms. The CustomerService would call a method on CustomerGateway that retrieves the query data. While the gateway *could* build the struct, you generally want to leave that sort of work to another component, using the gateway strictly for database interaction. So perhaps the gateway's method is just GetAll (or whatever's appropriate, depending on whether you need to apply filters in the query), and you build the struct (or array, or just leave it as a query, depending on what you need), in the CustomerService. Then the CustomerService calls the Export.cfc's method, and does whatever's necessary - saving the spreadsheet, returning it to the browser, whatever. Unless you have a reason to persist the query data from request to request, you don't want or need to place it in the session scope. So: 1.

The Flex datagrid page calls getAllAsStruct method in CustomerGateway.cfc which
returns the array to Flex.
private function buttonHandler():void {
roWildcard.getAllAsStruct();
}
mx:RemoteObject id=roWildcard
destination=ColdFusion
source=DeptApps.Statistics.Faye.stardust.cfc.CustomerGateway
showBusyCursor=true
result=resultHandler(event)
fault=faultHandler(event)/
The array is displayed here,
mx:DataGrid id=dg dataProvider={roResults} width=100%
height=100%/
Then, I am calling the exportToExcel method in Export.cfc which is supposed to
get the array from the above. It will return a boolean.
private function test():void{
exportManager.exportToExcel( + +
The application has successfully
exported this file +
Eventually the actual data will be
passed into this function +
);
}
If the above is true, I will then call a cfm file to spit it out.
cfsetting enablecfoutputonly=true showdebugoutput=No
cfheader name=Content-Disposition value=attachment;
filename=export.xls/
cfcontent type=application/vnd.ms-excel reset=true/
cfscript
WriteOutput(session.exportData);
/cfscript
cfexit /
We want to allow the user to choose where to save their data when it opens
excel.
My problem is, session.exportData is not tied in with the result from
getAllAsStruct method in CustomerGateway.cfc
It brings up Excel allowing to choose the location to save the file but the
spreadsheet opens up with no data.
I hope this helps to clear up some confusion.
Thank you again.

Hi Tom,
Let me give it one more try and be thorough. Please find all the files used
below for this issue. The data is retrieved and Excel will open. The problem
is, Excel is opened without any data.
Code starts here
==
I will provide all my code here:
Flex datagrid page:
?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8?
mx:Canvas xmlns:mx=http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml;
mx:Script
![CDATA[
import mx.collections.ArrayCollection;
import mx.controls.Alert;
import mx.rpc.events.FaultEvent;
import mx.rpc.events.ResultEvent;
[Bindable] private var roResults:ArrayCollection;
private function buttonHandler():void {
roWildcard.getAllAsStruct();
}
private function resultHandler( event:ResultEvent
):void {
roResults = new ArrayCollection( event.result
as Array );
}
private function faultHandler( event:FaultEvent ):void {
Alert.show( event.toString(), Remote Object
Fault );
}
private function test():void{
exportManager.exportToExcel( + +
The application has successfully
exported this file +
Eventually the actual data will be
passed into this function +
);
}
private function login_result(event:ResultEvent):void{
if(event.result == true){
var request:URLRequest = new
URLRequest(getExcelFile.cfm);
flash.net.navigateToURL(request,
_self);
}
}
private function serverFault( event:FaultEvent ):void {
Alert.show( event.toString(), Remote Object
Fault );
}
]]
/mx:Script
!--
types of returns you can have from ColdFusion - Flex,
getAllAsStruct creates an array of structures to pass back
with a special '__type__' struct key indicating to Flex what the type
is.

mx:RemoteObject id=roWildcard
destination=ColdFusion

Re: How to set cfset session variable to be called in a cfc?
Faye, The way you're handling the export has a number of issues. If you don't mind, I'll suggest a somewhat different flow to the logic. I definitely would not use the session scope here. It's just not necessary. But first - have you actually tested your .cfm file by placing some data into the session scope, then seeing what comes out? Completely in isolation from Flex? I've never seen an attempt to create a spreadsheet this way, by simply outputting some data and giving it a spreadsheet content type: cfsetting enablecfoutputonly=true showdebugoutput=No cfheader name=Content-Disposition value=attachment; filename=export.xls/ cfcontent type=application/vnd.ms- excel reset=true/ cfscript WriteOutput(session.exportData); /cfscript cfexit / I'm not certain, but I don't think it will work. In your .cfm file, set session.data to something and see what you get. I'm guessing it won't work, but I could be wrong. I've created many spreadsheets from ColdFusion, and they always require a good bit of manipulation, or the use of the cfspreadsheet tags and functions in later versions. I don't think you can just dump the data in that way, although perhaps since it's a struct, it'll work. I don't know. But there are certainly lots of ways in CF to create spreadsheets from data structures cleanly, and I'd suggest using one. So make sure you can actually create a spreadsheet, with valid data, before you go further. Here's how I would suggest you make things flow:(Again, this is with the assumption that the methods need no arguments for filtering.) - In your button handler, do not make a remote object call. Instead, go ahead and make your URLRequest to the .cfm file. - In your .cfm file, create an instance of your gateway and retrieve the data. - Then create an instance of your export cfc, call its method and pass in the data retrieved in the previous step. - Now do whatever's necessary to actually create everything as a spreadsheet. It could be simpler - create a method in a cfc called exportCustomerData which wraps the calls to the gateway and to the export function. So the problem should have nothing to do with Flex. Just make a URLRequest to a .cfm file - with parameters, if necessary - then handle all the processing there. You can do all your testing without Flex being involved, by calling the page directly in a browser. Mainly, make certain you can create the spreadsheet properly from CF. That's the key. If none of this makes sense, or if you need more help, let me know a couple of things: - what version of CF you are using, and - whether you've tested creating the spreadsheet in a .cfm file that way -- Thanks, Tom Tom McNeer MediumCool http://www.mediumcool.com 1735 Johnson Road NE Atlanta, GA 30306 404.589.0560 ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:340587 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

Re: iCal Version 4.0.3/vCalendar Auto Accept Issue
If you want them all to be imported with one accept, vs. having to do each individually, I think you need to have the uid match the event, instead of giving each one a unique uid (maybe just eventid instead of regid+eventid?). Basically, I'd look into what you're doing with uid, and maybe check out recurrence-id. Kind of a shot in the dark, but it's all I got. =) (Well, I've also got some code for using ical4j w/CF, if you want to go hardcore. =]) :Den -- The greatest men of a nation are those it puts to death.
