RE: Coldfusion Integration with .net,java

2007-04-27 Thread Josh Adams
You are correct, Andrew:  the .NET editions of BlueDragon allow for
integration with other .NET code and the Java editions of BlueDragon allow
for integration with other Java code.  BlueDragon .NET (there are two
editions, Standard and Enterprise, but the underlying code base is the same)
is implemented as a native extension of the ASP.NET processing pipeline and
as such it truly makes CFML pages deployed on BlueDragon .NET into ASP.NET
pages.  In other words, with BlueDragon .NET, CFML is a ASP.NET development
language.  BlueDragon Server, BlueDragon Server JX, and BlueDragon J2EE are
implemented with Java.  They allow great opportunities for integration with
other Java code.  In those products, as in any Java product, the best we
could do is use Java-to-.NET bridge technology to allow for some small
amount of non-native integration with .NET.  It is not currently our plan to
implement such support, but at such time as our customers and prospects ask
for it, we will certainly implement it.  However, to this point, our
customers and prospects interested in .NET integration have indicated they
prefer the true .NET integration afforded them by BlueDragon .NET.

Subject: Re: Coldfusion Integration with .net,java

What sort of question is that? As I said earlier CF can leverage of .Net and
java libraries.

Currently only BlueDragon supports .Net until CF8 is released and CF8 will
support both out of the box and I will not comment on BueDragon I think it
is one or the other. Someone will correct me if I am wrong there.

And it is upto your needs, what are you looking at developing. CFML is a
scripting language for Web development, .Net and Java are more than that,
and because there is a huge development base there might be an application
like jasper reports or something that you might want to leverage of.

So then you follow the API's of that and then intergaret that into your
application.

I think you need to be more specific on what you want to do, or go away and
develop in another language as your not clear on what CF is.

   you'll have to wait for CF8. Otherwise webservices work well with

It's possible that you're not doing anything wrong in regards to BD 7
beta--the installer may not have been tested on Intel Mac.  We would expect,
however, that if you could get it installed, it would run on Intel Mac.
However, we are working on an installer for BD 7 beta 2 for Intel Mac that
will be better for you anyway as it will support the native adapters needed
if you don't want to use BD's built-in web server.  We expect to release
that installer shortly after Thanksgiving.

2006-11-16 Thread Josh Adams
And the beta 2 which should be out by early December will support
Application.cfc as well.

But it's not quite as simple as converting Application.cfc to
Application.cfm.  Application.cfm is a chunk of procedural code executed at
the beginning of every request; Application.cfc is a component with methods
that fire in response to particular events.  However, depending on what of
those methods he needs, Jason may be able to take the appropriate parts of
his Application.cfc and put them in Application.cfm.

Subject: Performance problem

I have some code that dynamically generates CSV, TAB, and EXCEL (HTML
tables) from a query, and it is running pretty slowly.  A lot slower than
I'd like it to.  Essentially, I set a bunch of variables like START_PAGE,
END_PAGE, START_ROW, END_ROW, START_FIELD, and END_FIELD that allow me to
loop through the query and loop through the list of fields and output the
data in the appropriate format.

I added some debugging code and generating 124 rows took 19 seconds. 
Generating 1416 rows took 309 seconds.  Which means if someone wants to
generate a drop with 5,000 rows, it's gonna take a long freakin' time!

It seems like it shouldn't be that slow.  It's only writing every 100 rows
to disk (the 124 record file was 445KB).  And a couple of cflog statements
indicate that the file write takes less than a second.

Here's the query loop that outputs the rows of data.

cfloop query=resultSet
cfset fileOutput = fileOutput  START_ROW
cfloop list=#fields# index=ThisColumn
cfset field = evaluate(resultSet.#ThisColumn#)
cfif field eq  and format eq EXCELcfset
field=nbsp;/cfif
cfset fileOutput = fileOutput  START_FIELD
cfif format eq CSV
cfset fileOutput = fileOutput  csvFormat(field)
cfelse
cfset fileOutput = fileOutput  FIELD
/cfif
/cfloop
cfset fileOutput = fileOutput  END_ROW
cfif currentRow MOD 100 is 0
cflog text=writing file #now()#
cffile action=APPEND 
file=#application.udf.ROOT_DIR#\tools\entityLookup3\drops\#filename# 
output=#fileOutput# addnewline=No
cflog text=done writing file  #now()#
cfset fileOutput = 
/cfif
/cfloop

I suspect that it's the Evaluate() that's running slowly.

Any ideas on how to speed this code up?

Thanks!

Rick

I assume you're speaking of pipe redundancy to the affected datacenter,
aren't you?  I imagine that they have bought pipe from multiple providers
but at some point those probably just about have to come in and out of the
building in the same place.  Anyone know that not to be true?

In terms of data center redundancy, they do offer that, but naturally you
have to pay for it.

RE: what if the next CF...

2006-08-08 Thread Josh Adams
Tanguy and any others who might be using CFML on WebLogic--

Take a look at BlueDragon, BEA WebLogic Edition:

http://www.bea.com/framework.jsp?CNT=index.htmFP=/content/products/weblogic
/bluedragon/

You should find that both the installation difficulty and size of required
CFML app server resources is significantly less when deploying BlueDragon
than you're finding them to be when deploying CFMX.

Subject: Re: what if the next CF...

You do realize this is possible now, right? If you install CFMX 7 using 
the Multiserver installation option on, say, your laptop, you can write 
your application, create an EAR/WAR which contains the entire CF 
runtime, and give it to some J2EE app server admin and tell him to 
deploy it. Of course, it's not free - you have to either include your 
own license information (thus invalidating it on your own machine, 
legally) or have that information added post-deployment.

We use the J2EE version of MX (equivalent to Multiserver installation?),
deploying in Weblogic, and i've got to say that, in my experience, it's a
little more hairy than that:

1) In Weblogic, CF has to be deployed as an exploded war / ear (as i recall,
this has something to do with needing read / write access to the
license.properties file). This means that the ear or war has to be uploaded
to each machine in the cluster, exploded, deployed from the weblogic
console, and then the license information needs to be updated separately in
each instance using the cf admin (although i think there are cluster
friendly serial numbers available). Contrast this with a normal java web
app, where you upload the war/jar/rar/ear using a web form on the weblogic
console and it is automatically deployed on all of the machines in the
cluster.

2) You have to deploy a full cf instance every time. Even if your app is a
simple five pager that doesn't need scheduled tasks,web services, or
whatever - you still need to deploy hundreds of megabytes of code, which
does affect memory usage and startup time for you app server. 

These are just our experiences in our environment, not enough to draw any
binding conclusions about the state of the product. But, here, small apps
that would be a natural for CF's feature set keep losing out to struts based
apps packaged as wars because the perception is that they are easier to
setup and manage... :(

RE: cfquery - single quotes become doubled

2006-08-08 Thread Josh Adams
Make sure that you understand the security implications of using queries
with cfqueryparam.  cfqueryparam defends you against SQL injection
attacks and should always be used with untrusted data such as user input.
If you're dynamically building your query, you can't use cfqueryparam with
CF.  In that case you need to make sure that you sanitize any user input to
remove characters that are potential SQL injection hazards.  Note that using
a whitelist approach is greatly preferred to using a blacklist approach.
Note also that just because you build some of your query dynamically doesn't
mean you have to build all of it dynamically--you can mix your dynamic part
in with a static part that uses cfqueryparam.  Then so long as the dynamic
part is not built from untrusted data you won't have to do any additional
work to sanitize your data to remove characters that are potential SQL
injection hazards.

Note that with BlueDragon you CAN build a dynamic query string that contains
cfqueryparam.  Then when you pass it to cfquery, you use the render()
function just as you're currently using the preserveSingleQuotes() function:

cfquery 
#render(Variables.myQueryString)#
/cfquery

But note that using the render() function with untrusted data opens you up
to CFML injection attacks so you'll need to sanitize for those.

Thanks all, PreserveSingleQuotes() solved the problem. 


That's by design. ColdFusion is escaping your single quotes.

You need to either wrap your string in the PreserveSingleQuotes() 
function or, better, use cfqueryparam

I can't speak to the capabilities of Coral Web Builder but I can tell you
that here at New Atlanta we have a program for standalone CFML web
applications deployed on BlueDragon.  Given the proper business case, we
will negotiate significant reductions in licensing costs and/or arrange
other compensation schemes such as monthly royalties.  If this is of
interest to you, check out the ISV segment of our BlueDragon TrueBlue
Partner Program here:

http://www.newatlanta.com/products/bluedragon/partners/isv.cfm

If you're ready to take it to the next step and discuss how we can work
together, shoot me an email off-list and I'll put you in touch with the
right people here at New Atlanta.

I've been reading about Coral Web Builder (again) after your email.

It sounds intriguing...question...does Coral Web Builder take the place of
Cold Fusion Server in development, too?

I'm trying to understand if by buying this script engine, I can avoid buying
Cold Fusion Server altogether.  I'm still (happily) using CF 4.5, but Coral
Web Builder would give me most of the latest functionality for only $89 with
the special they're running.

Just not quite sure where Coral Web Builder fits into the process.

This is happening of course because two of your like clauses catid LIKE

This is the difficulty with this kind of set up.

RE: IIS 6.0

2006-07-31 Thread Josh Adams
IIS 6.0 has some great features like application pooling and process
recycling that can be really useful.  If you're just using it as a web
server and not as an application server you'll get more limited benefit from
those features.  But when running .NET applications (including but not
limited to BlueDragon.NET applications) some of those features can truly be
lifesavers.

RE: Sharing Sessions between a .Net machine and a CF machine

2006-07-31 Thread Josh Adams
I'm going to write Ian directly again everyone but a point I'll make here
for all:

If you use BlueDragon and a bug in the application server causes a problem
that kills a patient (or whatever else), we at New Atlanta will answer for
that under the terms of our SLA and license agreement with you, just as any
other software vendor would.  We are an accountable and customer-responsive
organization in our 10th year of business.  We're here, we stand behind our
products, and we have no plans to go anywhere.

If so, then good--I'm here, man:  please tell me more about what you mean
when you say you can't get BlueDragon.

My company has shown no interest in the product.  We are a very restricted
environment.  Accountability is a big one that keeps us out of the open
source world.  This probably does not apply to New Atlanta and BlueDragon.
But, if a bug in the application server causes a problem that kills a
patient (ok worse case scenario, but we have had multi-million dollar blood
recalls due to human error), the company wants somebody to answer for that.

I’m not using cflocation.   I just link to a page outside of the 
directory protected by cflogin.   At the top of that page I have cflogout.  
And also, just for good measure, as a part of my testing, I put a cflogout 
tag at the sign-in form page, which is also outside of the protected directory. 
 None of it matters.  

I’m having another problem that may be not be related.  If I have a file 
in a directory that I’ve bringing up in my browser for testing, then 
move the file to a different directory, then point my browser to the address of 
the old location, it brings the file up, even though the file is no longer 
there.  I cleared my browser cache.  Another developer tried it from his 
machine and it came up in his browser too.  The server people told me that 
there was no server cache.   Huh?   Is that possible?  And could it be related 
to this problem? I had already tried session storage before, but that was when 
I used application.cfm instead of the componant.

Wait, are you using a cflocation after your cflogout tag? If so, the 
cfauthorization cookie probably isn't being set properly.

Swap over to session storage as one of the other posters suggested and 
you should be ok.
