ColdFusion - Long Running Processes - Garbage Collection - structDelete
We used a trick in *ColdFusion 8* that does not seem to work in *ColdFusion 9*. Inside of loops in heavy lifting / long running processes ( scheduled pages ), we would use: structDelete( variables, "foo" ); This would, in theory, remove the pointer to the location in memory and allow for garbage collection. I have tried moving the processing inside of a cffunction and using a similar trick on the local scope. var objOrder = structDelete( local, "foo" ); structDelete on variables and local do *not work* in *ColdFusion 9*. Another trick, that is less than ideal, and would require re-writing a significant amount of code is to have 2 pages: The 1st page would contain the loop and use cfhttp to call the 2nd page that actually does the processing. This, in theory, would be a solution if ColdFusion 9 only allows Garbage Collection at the *end of each request*. ( I sure hope this isn't true ) Any Ideas? Maybe cfthread? I know that others out there must have encountered this same problem and come up with a solid solution. Please share your tricks.

SAML Response to Google Apps
Has anyone successfully created a ColdFusion project that sends a SAML Response to Google Apps? I have nearly completed a project that decodes the SAML Request from Google, authenticates with the local directory, and submits a SAML Response back. However, Google Apps states that it could not parse the response. Using the SimpleSAML debug Web page [1], I am able to successfully decode my response. Since that works, I suspected the certificate signing. As per directions from other sources [2-4] I use the Apache Santuario Java libraries. From what I can tell, it seems to be working fine. I've even signed the response several ways, such as just the Response, just the Assertion, and both. I've been discussing this on the Google Dev forums [5] but the official Googlers don't seem to have access to the logs that say exactly why it can't parse the Response. Wish Google would say what specifically it doesn't like...

Can you bind to a subquery result?
Ok, I could use some help on this as I can't seem to make it work and cannot find any topics on this either. I have a cfquery that I am using to populate a cfgrid. I also have 3 cfinputs that I am using to bind and filter that cfgrid. The problem is, that 2 of the fields I am trying to filter through are gotten using a subquery to return names. But when I try to filter via text, it pulls no values, and when I type in the numeric id value instead it is filtering. So is there any way to bind results based on the subquery result?

Trapping entityDelete() errors
Working with ColdFusion 9 ORM, is there a way to trap entityDelete() errors when there's a constraint violation. I have my delete setup like so: try { entityDelete(local.objSongCategory); // report success } catch (Any e) { transaction action="rollback"; // report fail } However, if I attempt to delete a record in use (a song assigned to category being deleted), CF throws an error: coldfusion.orm.hibernate.HibernateSessionException: Cannot delete or update a parent row: a foreign key constraint fails (`databasename`.`songs`, CONSTRAINT `songs_ibfk_3` FOREIGN KEY (`SongCategoryID`) REFERENCES `songcategories` (`SongCategoryID`)).

Weird problem with CFPDF addheader/image
Ok, so I am hoping someone out there has some kind of insight on this issue as I cannot find anything on this. We are having an issue with CF9 with images not printing.

Its very simple code, and below is what is used: The problem is that it is in fact inserting the header image into the pdf file, but when you randomly print some of these pdfs the image will not print.

Problems with SpreadSheetFormat Columns??

cfchart - cfchartseries - cfchartdata
I would like to change my cfchart to only show the label in my cfchartseries for the first and last data point. I can turn on/off the labels for the entire cfchartseries using on: datalabelstyle="value" off: datalabelstyle="none" How can I turn it on for the first and last data point, but off for all those in the middle? The reason that I want to do this is I have several cfchartseries that overlap each other and the labels are not readable. I believe that cfchartdata only has 2 attributes: item and value. It would be nice if cfchartdata had a 3rd attribute displayLabel = true or false. Anyone know how to do this? ~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?

Re: Proper returntype of a cfc

Proper returntype of a cfc
Is it a common/best practice to return multiple variables from a cfc? Like if I wanted perform some processing in a cfc and return several variables. For the most part I have always returned either a query or 1 variable. If so, what would be the best return type for this? Does that make sense? I'd like to do this in the most popular way. I feel like I can really consolidate some code on a certain project. -- Ryan LeTulle ~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?

Peter, Are you saying that a uuid is inherently insecure? I thought part of the uuid was created randomly and for the purposes where I was using it felt comfortable. Maybe that sense was false.

Re: Product ID - enterprise level application
Nothing to do with security measures for me. Many times I simply don't want anyone accessing another record in the database. I am sure that you can imagine that type of scenario, in case not An example would be for an emailed order confirmation with a link back to their order details.(in this case the client does not want someone to fill out user details and create an account for their own reasons) By using an integer it would be extremely easy for someone to view other order details but not so with a uuid.

Re: Product ID - enterprise level application
The tradeoff will be between a user not being able to play around with the querystring (i.e change id=1 to id=2) and performance. How much performance I can't say.

Re: CFLOOP inside a CFQuery
After seeing how malicious and how effective hackers were with automated sql injection last year I vowed to never leave an integer field unturned without using cfqueryparameters it's just too easy to use it and the benefit is unquestionable especially for integer fields. I am also seeing some addtl benefits with other field types now as well but integers are required. -- Ryan LeTulle On Tue, Jun 9, 2009 at 9:51 PM, Gabriel wrote: > > Will, > > Justin is right, just because your form is behind a username/password it by > no means guarantees that the people accessing that form aren't malicious. > As > for whether there are scenarios where you shouldn't use queryparam?

Re: CFLOOP inside a CFQuery
Interesting I've never seen any noticeable hit using evaluate but I have heard it should be avoided. (chose to ignore) I'll look into your suggestion though.

Re: How would you approach this? Shared Calender? Any volunteers?
How about pushing your data in to Google Calendar. They have a nice API, and you can easily embed the calendar with a snippet of html/js. Additionally end users can embed your events into their own personal Google Calendar to easily keep track of events. If you don't want to go that route, just give them a snippet of html/js or an iframe that pulls the calendar in from your site. Then you have full control over it and will never have an issue of getting all the other sites to update to the latest calendar code or whatever. -Ryan Al Musella, DPM wrote: > I created a group of 50 brain tumor organizations and need to > create a calender that each member can insert into their own website, > but takes the data from my website..

Re: jquery question
Sorry Mike. I guess I'm not fully understanding where your problem is if you are going to submit form data. Do you want the lightbox to appear automatically after the form is submitted? Why can't you process the submission normally? or are you looking to just submit the script through jquery (i.e load or ajax) to another page and make something happen on your page after it is tweeked? I was not aware that jQuery could communicate directly with a cfc but I am sure someone hear could get that going. I have always communicated with a cfm page which might invoke a cfc. -- Ryan On Wed, Jun 3, 2009 at 7:03 PM, Mike Little wrote: > > thanks guys, > > my question is though - how to pass formatted content from my textarea to > the div upon form submission (or another button submit). ultimately i would > like to pass the content to a cfc first to check and amend data as required > so this is why i thought jquery would be the way to go. > > mike > > ~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?

Re: jquery question
Shouldn't be hard at all to have a hidden div prepared. After the text area is changed put the script in the div (getelementbyid) and show the div. I don't think you need ajax for that. You could certainly write it in jQuery syntax but any old javascript should do that. I've never tested it but I think it should work unless there is some issue with the script you are pasting. -- Ryan On Wed, Jun 3, 2009 at 5:42 PM, Mike Little wrote: > > sorry, could not think of a better subject! > > i have a form which an admin enters a embed script such as a youtube video. > what i would like to achieve is to have a preview button which takes the > contents of the textarea (ultimately filters the content with my clever > param filter) and displays the output in a popup similar to... > > http://yensdesign.com/tutorials/popupjquery/ > > (or alternatively the output displays in a div below the textarea?) > > i am very new to jquery/ajax and really would like to get into it. > unfortunately we have issues with using cf8's ajax features on my hosts > shared server and would like to use native jquery/ajax. > > any help/pointers in the right direction would be really appreciated. > > mike > > ~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?

Re: redirect page
I always start my path(s) from the webroot. (i.e. /) In your case it appears that would be /index.cfm FYI Depending on your situation you might want to create a way to set the root path in your app in case you ever install it in a folder other than a webroot.. -- Ryan On Fri, May 22, 2009 at 11:48 AM, Pranathi Reddy wrote: > > Hi , > > I am trying to move back one directory and redirect the page to another > page. > eg: I am at page >http:/localhost/Extradirectory/newfile.cfm and I want to redirect to the > index.cfm at http:/localhost/newfile.cfm if condition satisfies. > > I am using cflocation to direct to another page but I am at path > /inetpub/project1/Extradirectory/newfile.cfm and my .cfm file is in path > /inetpub/project1/index.cfm > > > http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:322718 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4
Re: MySQL - How to create a category tree in a store
Also depending on your traffic versus how often the products will get updated versus your hosting plan etc you may want to output the entire tree at the time of it being maintained on the back end rather than every time someone visits the site. Don't know your situation, just an idea if you need to limit hits on the database. -- Ryan On Fri, May 22, 2009 at 11:11 AM, Ryan Letulle wrote: > I am assuming you at least have product_id and category_id in your linking > table.

Re: MySQL - How to create a category tree in a store
I am assuming you at least have product_id and category_id in your linking table. I think if you added a parent_id accounting for the root level you could build out your tree. Not sure of how you want to go about it but thinking out loud: 1. Query all categories at root level 2. Loop through root level and pull children (all those with a parent as that category) 3. Repeat this for the max levels 4. Pull products at each level (1,2,3,4) Basically you are only assigning one sub/category but you have the hierarchical relationship stored in the db. You would have to account for that when searching on the front end. Front end I would suggest jQuery for an accordion like effect(slidedown/up and/or fadein/out) and pull the products using the ajax or load method. -- Ryan On Fri, May 22, 2009 at 10:41 AM, Will Tomlinson wrote: > > >@willr u ok with setting a maximum number of levels? > > > >-- > >Ryan > > > > Yep.

Re: New Topic: Custom content based on environment.
Another idea - you could override a stylesheet on the staging sites. Put something like this in the those virtual hosts: Alias /path/to/one-of-my-stylesheets.css /special-cfm-stylesheet.cfm Then in special-cfm-stylesheet.cfm you read in the normal stylesheet, append something to that text that will alter the tag the way you want, the cfcontent the entire text to the browser. -Ryan ~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;207172674;29440083;f Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:321894 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
