Neil -Original Message- From: Michael Dinowitz [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 07 July 2002 16:29 To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: MX Mappings Well, CFMX does create a class file for each of the CFINCLUDEs that it uses. A lot of includes means a lot of extra compilations. I wonder if that will still be true if the CFINCLUDES were saved as .txt or .inc rather than .cfm. I don't know that there is anything different in how it uses mappings, but I've heard complaints from a lot of people about performance problems with MX when the application is using a lot of cfincluded files.

RE: MDAC version
Not that a good check as some versions of software demand lower (and higher) versions of the MDAC components.

Second a suggestion, when cost is an issue we use the dedicated hosting packages at www.cihost.com, they are good on Win2k systems and keep up with patches etc. It is most cost-effective there to have your own copy of ColdFusion. Their customer service can be a bit patchy at times but we have structured our internal systems to deal with that and they are very cost-competitive. Again hth.

It's possible that it could be related to locking, although locking is typically not related to datasource issues ( although I've heard of it being used as a workaround for certain problems with MS Access ) and even when it is a database problem, you'll usually just get odbc errors rather than big-time cf server problems... It might be related to unlocked data manipulation in the application or more often session scopes... and unfortunately being on a shared server, it'd be difficult to say whether going through all of your own code and making sure all of your own stuff is locked would even solve the problem. Personally I think it'd be nice to see the hosting companies turning full-checking on on their shared servers, but for various reasons ( loss of performance, time on the phone with customers explaining locking, etc... ) it just doesn't happen that way. In any event, if you're using session, application or server ( I'd stay away from these on a shared server ) variables I would probably _start_ by making sure they're all locked and then if it continues I'd consider finding another host if it's bothersome enough. Wish I could provide more solid answers for you, Isaac www.turnkey.to 954-776-0046

I guess I missed it. I have been off the list for a while. I am
running
CF Studio 4.5 and CF 4.5. About to upgrade one of our servers to MX.(CF
5)
I see on the MM site that there is a CF Studio MX, but the doc says it
includes dreamweaver. Am I to assume that I will be forced fed
dreamweaver,
or does the studio MX still have my beloved CF Studio? What's the
scoop?

Rodney:
I have created and array and I'm sending it back to my client page via
activeserver
Now, I have this array 2 dimensional and I don't know how to take all
the data (which is just my query results) and read it so that I can
break it down into records and populate my form.
Basically we've been working with fusionscrtipt a little and we're
trying to see how powerful it is... I ahd this form working with 1
record per section however we want to be bale to return multiple
records
for each category.
I will attach the code but it's a simple chart down the left side are
grades k,1,2,3,4,5 across the top are sciences Life, Earth, Physical.
Now underneath each area, we want the ability to have multip results.
For example. I would like 2 have 2 grade K life science events. Each
event consists of an Action (which is also a dorp down) and event
(text
box) and when (text box of when it occurred). So, we need to have the
ability to read through the array, and break it up then have it
display
all the data in the correct locations... I know this is kind of
jumbled
but do you follow me at all??

RE: Examples of Inheritance?
Take this for example.. Say I wanted to cookup a new 'object' of Type : ColdFusion Coder As Ray suggested, there are a certain amount of general vanilla parameters, in this case, fname, lname and age. So we have 1 class - a superclass called human.cfc which looks like this : cfcomponent name=human cffunction name=createhuman returntype=struct access=package cfargument name=fname default= type=string cfargument name=lname default= type=string cfargument name=age default=-1 type=numeric cfscript this.fname = arguments.fname; this.lname = arguments.lname; this.age = arguments.age; /cfscript cfreturn this /cffunction /cfcomponent We also have a CFC named coder .cfc which is extending/inheriting the human.cfc method properties..it is adding a coding discipline : Language cfcomponent name=coder extends=human cffunction name=create returntype=struct cfargument name=language default= type=string cfscript createhuman(argumentCollection=duplicate(arguments)); /cfscript cfset this.language = arguments.language cfreturn this /cffunction /cfcomponent We can either now, call human.cfc to create a simple human with default params, or we can call the coder.cfc to add instance variables to human.cfc thus (from a standard .cfm page) : cfset stArgs = structNew() cfset stArgs.fname = Neil cfset stArgs.lname = Clark cfset stArgs.age = 29 cfset stArgs.language = ColdFusion cfinvoke component=com.macromedia.coder method=create argumentcollection=#stArgs# returnvariable=coder / cfoutput#coder.lname#, #coder.fname#, #coder.age#/cfoutput This is displays fairly simple inheritance with ColdFusion and CFCs - yes it may not be what you determine as true inheritance, but its ingeritance nonetheless.

RE: ColdFusion Microsoft Exchange Server
Thanks Dave,
Thats cool info, however one of the problems with this code block :
cfscript
username = **;
password = ***;
servername = **;
mailbox = *;
objExchangeSession = createObject(COM,MAPI.Session);
objExchangeSession.Logon('#username#','#password#',false,true,-
1,false,'#servername# #chr(13)# #mailbox#');
/cfscript
If the the last parameter from the Logon method is dropped, it gives a
failed validation error. All the obvious things have been tried.
The docs say that the format for the profileinfo parameter is:
server name vbLf mailbox name
Weird?

The goal is to allow multiple users to have web access to
their calendar without the Outlook Web Interface.
You can connect via COM to Exchange using the CDO library. There's lots
of
information about CDO on MSDN (http://msdn.microsoft.com/). There's also
a
good book covering CDO from ASP, called ADSI CDO ASP, from Wrox Press.
CDO
is the interface that the Outlook Web Access application uses, I'm sure.
Unfortunately, I don't know how easy this'll be from CF, since CF does
such
a bad job with COM in general and with MS-specific interfaces like CDO
and
ADSI in particular. I found it extremely difficult to work with ADSI
from
CF, compared with ASP. Also, if you're using CF 5, you can use the
CFIMPERSONATE tag to wrap your CDO calls so that you can impersonate a
specific Exchange user, but there's no equivalent in CF MX, which is
kind of
a bummer. Note that CFIMPERSONATE requires that you run the CF server as
SYSTEM.
What don't you just VPN the two networks together into a
single virtual network, so that you don't have these issues?
While I agree that this would be a good idea if they're not already on
the
same network, this won't solve the programmatic problem of how to get CF
to
talk to Exchange.

We are looking to implement a content management system and am interested what you folks out there are using. Below are some of the features we would like. We currently have a Win2k server with CF5 and MSSQL2000. Preferably we would like to utilize this system. One product which we are considering is eMPower by Ektron. However, we would consider something non-cf based if it really stood out. - Windows platform - backend technology optional - database driven - restrict content creators to templates - workflow approval - content active/expire dates - CSS supported - Section 508 support a plus At this point, I am unsure what my organization's price cap is. We are a non-profit so price is a factor, but we want to get this right the first time. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! We're very happy with CommonSpot, which may strike you as a bit expensive up front (around $25-30k, if I recall correctly) but comes with a ton of functionality, with very little work getting it up and running. We're CommonSpot resellers, so if you need any more information about it, we can get you whatever you need. Of course, that sounds a little biased - there are plenty of CMS solutions out there, but again, we've had great success in deploying CommonSpot solutions for far less total cost than with many other CMSs.

Subject: RE: ColdFusion Microsoft Exchange Server
That's cool info, however one of the problems with this code
block :
cfscript
username = **;
password = ***;
servername = **;
mailbox = *;
objExchangeSession = createObject(COM,MAPI.Session);
objExchangeSession.Logon('#username#','#password#',false,
true,-1,false,'#servername# #chr(13)# #mailbox#');
/cfscript
If the the last parameter from the Logon method is dropped, it
gives a failed validation error. All the obvious things have
been tried.
The docs say that the format for the profileinfo parameter is:
server name vbLf mailbox name
Weird?
You might try using Chr(10), which is a line feed, instead of Chr(13),
which
is a carriage return.

I decided to document the changes in case anyone else might be interested. First, I added tag completion so the new tags appear in the popup list and tag completion. Second, I added a section to Studio's help pane entitled ColdFusion MX Tags - New and Changed so that the new help files could be easily browsed. The instructions are in the attached text file. I hope that you find it useful. For the record, I would like to see Macromedia turn over Studio to an open source group. Then, we as developers, could control Studio's destiny. It wouldn't hurt them in the long run as I still plan on developing ColdFusion applications, which means more money in their pockets. But, I don't like being told to convert to a graphical interface after years of developing in Studio and other text based IDE's. I would rather go back to Notepad.

So, I'm pretty familiar with CFCs and getting it to work, etc. I learned that you can actually store a function within the variable scope (in fact, I learned that when you create a UDF, it's actually placed in the variable scope). I also recently learned that you can push a component of an object inside a variable as well (via CreateObject();). I created a 'logging' component that all it does is takes an argument (event_id) and it checks the db if it should log the event and / or notify someone of the event. I pushed this logging component into the request scope and it's now available to all my applications (even other CFCs). I guess my question is, is this a bad thing to do? What's the impact of pushing components into the request scope (besides memory)...? I know there's this holy war going on regarding the 'request' scope as some people say it shouldn't be touched and other people claim that's what it's for. Just looking for opinions...

It can be used to write full on applications, like perl, it is just not very popular for it. It is a very powerful language that even gives you i/o support (like talking to com ports and stuff). Now this is not how it is normally used. I am mainly a CF guy, and I have recently started to dive into PHP. I would like to say, given the choice for a web app I will continue to choose CF.

Not that I know of... peformance as far as serving pages is concerned is sweet with the new compilation architecture.

RE: Yo Macromedia: CFMX and UUID Issue!
It doesn't make any sense to say JDBC is faster than ODBC. There are fast and slow JDBC clients, and fast and slow ODBC clients. I doubt that using the best Type 4 JDBC client against MS SQL Server will be as fast as using the standard ODBC client for it. Agreed, I have seen stuff around the programs stating its fast/faster, but I have also heard its slow/slower etc... :) Also, if by the bridge you mean the JDBC-ODBC bridge from Sun, if you se that you will certainly suffer performance issues. It's a Type 1 driver if Irecall correctly, and designed more for demonstration purposes than anything else from my understanding. As for this, I am pretty sure its a bridge. CFMX installs with the IBM JRE (well it did in earlier releases). I wouldn't be surprised if CF MX does turn out to be slower than CF 5 - hmm, I think its all relative - I too would be happy for more featuresnow wheres that bandwagon - N __ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.

Flash, just like HTML, is as safe as you make it, when you're referring to data integrity between client and server. Using J2EE doesn't make any difference - you can build insecure applications just as easily with J2EE as with any other CGI-style environment - and Flash Remoting just makes it harder to manipulate the data (far from impossible, though, I suspect - it's binary, but not encrypted or obfuscated, according to the curious folks who've started examining the format). The key is to design your application with security in mind; don't unnecessarily rely on data from the client when you can avoid it, filter all data from the client every time, and use SSL as appropriate to prevent third parties from being able to see the data. If you do that, you won't have any more problems with Flash than you would with a well-designed HTML interface. If you don't, you'll have the same problems that you'd have with a poorly-designed HTML interface.
