Re: macromedia certification
Unfortunately it is true of certifications in general and I think that reflects more on the certification exams than anything else. I used to work full time as a trainer giving courses covering Novell, Microsoft, Macromedia, Allaire and Lotus Notes products. A lot of the courses were designed with a certification in mind and as a trainer I spent a good deal of time answering questions on what was likely to come up on the exam. The one major exception to this was the CISCO certification. I can't speak from personal experience, because I never took the exams, but one of my colleagues went through the process to get the CCIE certification and by all accounts it was impossible to pass without really knowing *and* understanding just about everthing related to the topic matter. The exam itself was a 4 hour lab where you had to troubleshoot a set of CISCO hardware that had been carefully misconfigured by the examiner. Now that's the sort of certification that I would trust if someone was to offer an equivalent for developers. my 2 cents Spike On 4/27/06, Dave Watts [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I wonder, do any employers actually give any consideration to people with one of these certifications?

Re: CFEclipse Vs Dreamweaver
If you find that the design view part of DreamWeaver is important to you, it is probably best to stick with that rather than CFEclipse. One of the goals of CFEclipse is to be a code centric tool, which means that we have pretty much no intention of adding design view support.

Any thoughts on this? May be I am not using it right but CFEclipse lacks mainly, IMHO, in graphical representation. In Dreamweaver, I can go back and fort on Design view and Code view and most of the HTML component creation is a snap. (May be CFEclipse is more geared for pure ColdFusion.)

Re: java equivalent of cffile
Yeah,
That will create a file, rename it and delete it.
File read and write operations are somewhat more involved.
You'll definitely be better off wrapping up the file operations in a
cffunction block, but if you really do want to find out some more about it,
here's some java code to read the contents of a file:
public String readFile(File input) {
BufferedReader in = null;
try {
StringBuffer buffer = new StringBuffer();
in = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(input));
String str;
while ((str = in.readLine()) != null) {
buffer.append(str + System.getProperty(line.separator));
}
in.close();
return buffer.toString();
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
System.out.println(Error! The file + input + could not be found.);
} catch (IOException e) {
System.out.println(Error! An IO Exception occurred.);
System.out.println(e.getMessage());
} finally {
try {
in.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (NullPointerException e) {
// something wasn't initialized, just ignore this error
}
}
return null;
}
Converting that lot to CF should keep you busy for a while ;-)

Re: Source Control Theory.....

Re: Source Control Theory.....
ok, I appreciate that you *can* solve the problem if a user isn't there, but here's an example of my typical experience with VSS: Bob, Fred and Joe are all working on the same project and sit within 6 feet of each other. Day starts Bob checks out files a, b, c, d, and e. Fred checks out files f,g and h. Joe checks out fils i, j, k, and l 10.00 am Joe gets called off to a meeting 10.15 am Bob realizes he needs to check out file j. Finds it's locked, so goes off to look for an administrator. 10.20 am Fred realizes he needs to add something to file e. Finds it's locked, so goes off to look for Bob. 10.30 am Bob returns having found that the administrator has been called off to do some work for a client. Starts creating a workaround for the things he needs in file j. 10.35 am Fred returns and gets Bob to release file e. 11.00 am Fred leaves to go to a client site forgetting to check in his work. 11.15 am Joe returns and gets a bunch of abuse from Bob. Joe releases his files so Bob can get the update. 11.30 am Joe realizes he needs to use file g. Finds out that it's locked and Fred isn't there. Finds out Admin isn't around, can't get Freds on his mobile. Starts to create a workaround for the stuff in file g. 11.45 am Bob realizes he needs something in file g. Talks to Joe. They work together to create a new version of g which they call file m. They refactor their code so that it no longer requires file g. 12.00 pm Bob goes off to lunch. 12.15 pm Joe realizes he needs to work on file d. Sees that Bob is at lunch and decides to go to lunch himself. 1.00 pm Bob returns from lunch and gets called off to a meeting. 1.30 pm Joe returns from lunch and finds that he still can't get to file d. I spent quite a while working in a place where that sort of thing was all too typical. It's certainly possible to discipline yourself so that these problems don't occur, but real life and commercial pressures often get in the way of rigid discipline. The CVS/SVN way of doing things eliminates that sort of problem.

Re: Source Control Theory.....
One of the main reasons I use Eclipse and started on the CFEclipse project is that Eclipse is bar none the best CVS client I've ever seen. In my experience, no matter how I shuffle things around, rename files, delete directories, whatever, it seems to seamlessly keep track of every single change and commit it to the repository. That's for changes I make from within Eclipse itself mind you, if I go off to the file system and start messing with files then I'm back into the usual CVS rename/move/delete fun and games. TortoiseCVS used to be the first thing I installed on every machine I used, but I don't even have it on any of my machines these days.

You can also right-click on a tab and choose New Editor which will allow you to have the same file twice. The problem comes when you have two editors open on the same file.

Re: CFEclipse 1.2
Hi everybody, As Rob mentioned earlier, I'm on the road at the minute and only have limited access to email, so I haven't been able to keep up with this thread. I'll summarize some answers to the questions that I've seen and try to get full answers next week when I get back home. * Eclipse 3.0 vs Eclipse 3.1 - Use Eclipse 3.1 if possible. None of the developers is running 3.0 any more, so there could be issues. * Unable to instantiate editor - Did you install using the Eclipse install mechanism, or via the direct download? If you used the direct download did you read the text in red at the bottom of the downloads page on the cfeclipse.org http://cfeclipse.org website? * Large files causing problems - Large files should not cause problems. No matter what anyone may think about the optimal size of a .cfm file the IDE should help you, not hinder you. If you are having a problem with performance let us know and we will fix it. Ideally if you can post the file causing the problems and the steps to reproduce the problem it will make it easier for us to fix, which will allow us to fix it faster. * Closing tags - I just double-checked and I can't reproduce this in CFE 1.2on my machine. Some things to try: Un-check all the auto-insert options in the preferences, hit apply, then re-check them and hit apply again. Close Eclipse and start it again from the command line with -clean as a command line option. If you're using 3.0 try using 3.1 if possible Try different combinations of auto-insert options. I have everything except the last option checked. I tested it with various other options without a problem, but it may be that a specific combination of options is the issue. * Tag and/or attribute insight not working - Have a look at the CFEclipse editor preferences and set the tag insight delay to something small like 5 which should cause it to show up pretty much immediately. * Eclipse update site - We are in the process of moving the CFEclipse website from tigris.org http://tigris.org to www.cfeclipse.orghttp://www.cfeclipse.org. A few weeks back we moved the update site and added the bleedinig edge releases (formerly nightly builds) to the update mechanism. You should update your Eclipse update site settings so that the URL for the CFEclipse update site is http://www.cfeclipse.org/update * Documentation - We have a few disparate resources for documentation, but pretty much all of it is out of date. We are actively seeking contributors who would like to help out with documentation. If you are interested join up the cfeclipse contributors list and fire off a message to that effect. You can sign up for the cfeclipse contributors list here: http://lists.topica.com/lists/cfeclipse-contrib/ Hope I didn't miss anything important.

What did you do for cfeclipse today?
In the interests of getting some traction for the cfeclipse project I am sending this email out to some of the more popular ColdFusion lists. Apologies for the cross-list post for those of you who are on multiple lists. If you are not interested in the cfeclipse project you can hit the delete button now :-) ok, so you're still reading. That means that somewhere deep down in your soul you might like to help out. The project is owned and run by the community and we would like to see more ongoing community involvement. To that end we are starting a drive to encourage more people to help out, so we have created a cfeclipse contributors list at: http://lists.topica.com/lists/cfeclipse-contrib/ The idea of this list is to help co-ordinate any efforts to improve the cfeclipse project. Those efforts may be in the form of java development, writing documentation, testing, answering support questions, co-ordinating efforts, fund raising, or anything else that you think would help. Every so often on the list we will send an email with the same subject line as this one, or something similar. That will serve 2 purposes. Firstly it will remind you that the cfeclipse project needs help and secondly it will help us to track what everyone is doing. Some of you will no doubt ask why we need another list apart from the ones on tigris.org http://tigris.org. There are two reasons. Firstly we intend to migrate away from tigris.org http://tigris.org in the future for a number of reasons and secondly the lists on tigris.org http://tigris.org are catering to two specific groups of people. Users and plugin developers. They don't cover the whole range of potential contributors. ok, so that's enough info to be going on with.

Re: From Across The Atlantic
I can't speak for much on the work prospects, but I can tell you that getting a work permit for the USA is an awful lot of hard work. I arrived here in December 2003 with the intention of looking around as a tourist for a month or so. Once I was here I decided to stay and looked at options for changing from a visitor visa to one that allows me to work. Finally at the end of January this year I got my work permit 13 months after arriving. That might sound bad, but from what I read on the various ex-pat forums changing status once you're in the country takes less time and has a higher chance of success than trying to get a visa from outside the country. Most of the visas that you would probably be eligble for have a specific quota per year. The quota is usually reached about 2 weeks after the visas for that year become available. That said, if you are thinking about coming to the USA, make sure you have a job with a large corporation who can work around the visa minefield on your behalf. From what I can tell, coming over here to become a contractor is next to impossible. Spike Adrian Lynch wrote: Hello all, I'm self employeed in the UK.

Re: What to do - stagnant job
I would be inclined to agree with Isaac... I was effectively not allowed to work last year because I was waiting for the US government visa approval process which seems to move on a geological timescale. I kept myself busy by increasing my knowledge of Java helping out on the CFEclipse project. Now that I've got my work permit I find I'm getting just as much Java as CF work. That certainly wouldn't have been the case a year ago, so I think it was time well spent. Besides, it's always good to diversify. It makes you more employable and makes you a better programmer at the languages you do already know IMO. Spike S.

Re: URL masking and application.cfc
This is pretty much exactly what I designed the FriendlyURLServlet to do. I'm in the middle of adding some functionality to that to allow you to specify a redirectHandler in web.xml that will cause all requests that match the servlet mapping to be passed directly to the handler. so if you had a URL like this: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/messages_4_38946.cfm and your web.xml looked something like this: servlet servlet-nameFUServlet/servlet-name display-nameFriendlyUrlServlet/display-name descriptionTranslates friendly URLs to objects/description servlet-classFriendlyURLServlet/servlet-class init-param param-nameredirectHandler/param-name param-value/go.cfm/param-value /init-param /servlet servlet-mapping servlet-nameFUServlet/servlet-name url-pattern/cf_lists/*/url-pattern is-defaultfalse/is-default /servlet-mapping /go.cfm would get the request with an extra URL variable called path. The value of that variable would be /cf_lists/messages_4_38946.cfm How you handle the processing of that variable and any subsequent redirection is entirely up to you. Spike Michael Dinowitz wrote: I think I'm not making myself clear here. I'm speaking about a CF based url rewriter, not a generic 404 catcher. If an url is written in a specific manner (messages_4_33432) then it'll translate into a valid and expected page. This is designed as a way to format specific pages that normally would need url/form variables into static looking pages. For example, a user or bot sees: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/messages_4_38946.cfm This is a valid url and any attempt to visit it will result in a valid document. Behind the scenes this may be something other than a file named messages_4_38946.cfm but that does not matter to the visitor. All they care about is a link and a result. I done it ages ago, and I found it is not how the web is supposed to work, a 404 error means page not found (as we all know) and that's what it should be used for, there are all kinds of ramifications when you use it for something else, for example; search engines will not pick your page up, fine if you don't want them listed in the first place.

FWIW, You should be able to get all of the information you mention below if you are using the FUServlet, but as you say, it's worthwhile to see if what you want to do is viable because it would not require the user to have control of the server and it's fun to play with ideas :-) Spike Michael Dinowitz wrote: And when has that stopped me from reinventing the wheel? :) The point is to see if it is possible and viable for its own sake and for usage.

Re: litlle cfeclipse question
Unfortunately word wrap in cfeclipse is a lot harder to implement than it really should be. The fundamental problem is that when you wrap the text, the line number count goes off and you need to have a way of dealing with that for handling errors and the like. The main stumbling block is that the java classes that handle code folding are largely from the core of Eclipse and aren't supposed to be sub-classed. Since code folding does a lot of work with recalculating line numbers it's not something we can work around too easily. Maybe the best thing to do is to submit a bug report/enhancement request to the Eclipse dev team here: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/enter_bug.cgi?product=Platformbug_severity=enhancement Spike CFDEV wrote: How to have word-warp in cfeclipse?

Re: Anyone used these tools?
Thanks Dave, My reply wasn't to your post, it was to Claude's. I expect that you are indeed the type of person who would get on with the job of actually trying to fix things. What ticks me off are the people who expect everything to be done for them for free and voiciferously complain when it doesn't happen, but don't do anything to help those who are volunteering their time. For most developers documentation is one of the least favoured jobs and it is one of the few things that someone who really doesn't have development skills or much experience with a product can contribute to. That's why I found Claude's remarks so irritating. Spike dave wrote: I don't, simply put. But I also don't complain about it either and I appriciate the work ppl like you do, that wasn't the point.

Re: launching a page in cfeclipse
I'm confused... For all my projects I have pretty much only one cfml file that lives in the webroot. Every other file is called from there either as a custom tag, as a CFC invocation or as an include. I typically have my project directory structure the same as yours and I set the project url to something like: http://local.example.com/index.cfm Right now CFEclipse doesn't have a clue how that maps to the project directory structure and it doesn't care either. The thinking behind that approach is that most projects use a very small number of files as http entry points so it makes more sense when firing up the integrated browser to have it go to the project root URL for the project that the file you're editing belongs to. A few people have asked for the ability to browse to the specific file you're editing as well. Chris Bradford added initial support for this a while back, but you can still run into issues because it just appends the path to the current file onto the project URL path. The proposed fix is to allow you to specify the file that the project URL points to, so we can correctly calculate relative URLs for any files that are under the webroot. The only challenge that now remains is finding a willing volunteer :-) Spike Raymond Camden wrote: Every single site I've built has a root that is below web root. IE: / (project root) /components /includes /etc /wwwroot So if I set my project root to foo.com, then obviously I can't go in wwwroot/foo.cfm and have it work right.

Re: Pro/Con Moving from MSSQL to MySQL
That's a ridiculous thing to say without at least qualifying it. MySQL is a far better tool for me than MSSQL because as a developer I often need to be able to destroy an existing database and replace it with a backed up version. With MySQL I can do that in a matter of a couple of seconds from the command line, or from a batch file. With MSSQL I need to open up Enterprise manager and run the restore database backup function praying that CFMX has dropped any existing connections because if it hasn't I'll have to go stop that before doing the restore. There's no doubt that there are times where MSSQL is a better fit, but blythely assuming that it's always the case is naive at best.

Re: Pro/Con Moving from MSSQL to MySQL
Actually, that's not fair at all. You can use T-SQL and the osql command line just as effectively, though it takes more steps and isn't as intuitive since MS has forced you to think GUI. It takes a similar amount of steps to restore a database through the MySQL Administrator GUI too if you can at all (so used to command line I haven't checked...) Thanks Paul, I wasn't aware that you could do that with MSSQL. Does that allow you to get around those times when CF has still got a DB connection open? The example I gave was just that, an example. There are plenty more such as the ability to dump a database table to an SQL script. That can be handy if you need to send some sample data to another developer. Again, these are things that are handy for a developer. They don't necessarily translate to making it a better DB for live sites, but I still stand by my point that there are times when MySQL will work better for you and times when it won't. The same applies to other options like Hibernate, Prevayler, PostgreSQL, Cloudbase, Oracle etc. Spike -- Stephen Milligan Code poet for hire http://www.spike.org.uk Do you cfeclipse? http://cfeclipse.tigris.org ~| Discover CFTicket - The leading ColdFusion Help Desk and Trouble Ticket application http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=48 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:196332 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54

Re: Pro/Con Moving from MSSQL to MySQL
I used the windows version of PostgreSQL on a pretty big project last year. The deployment was on *nix, but I was developing on Windows. The only gotcha I ran into was that the pid file sometimes got left behind if PostgreSQL terminated unexpectedly. That resulted in me not being able to start the PostgreSQL service. The first couple of times that happened I ended up reinstalling PostgreSQL, but the third time I decide to find out exactly what was causing the issue. From what I remember the file is postmaster.pid and is in the data sub-directory of the postgreSQL install. Deleting the file solves the problem. I'm not sure if that issue is fixed in the latest release of the windows install, but I thought I'd save you the pain if it isn't ;) Spike S.

I'm not sure that it would be a good idea to put your workspace in a place where it could be used by Eclipse from either Windows or Linux, but there would be no problem with having 2 workspaces, one under Windows and another under Linux with projects pointing to a shared location. When creating projects for the first time tell it to use an external location rather than the workspace as the location of the project. Then, the next time you use the other operating system use the import option on the file menu to import the project to that workspace rather than creating it using the File New menu.

Re: Plum vs Adalon?
You can't use Plum in conjunction with Fusebox or any other framework,as there would be no need. There is nothing that another framework could add to what Plum already has. That statement nicely sums up a couple of resons why I will probably never use Plum. In its current form at least. If I can't used it in conjunction with Fusebox or any other framework it must be putting some pretty severe restrictions on the freedom I have to make decisions about how to structure my application. Assuming that another framework couldn't add to what Plum does is pretty arrogant and not a little bit short sighted. As a simple example, how well does Plum cover the things provided by a framework for simplifying the use of Event gateways? I have downloaded and looked at Plum a couple of times. I didn't care for the structure of the applications it generated and I didn't like the code it generated either. That's not to say it isn't a great tool. It's just not something that I can see providing *me* with anything other than frustration. The specific things I don't like: * I dislike code generation wizards. They assume too much and are practically impossible to build in a way that doesn't do that. * I dislike anything that auto-generates code unless I have control over the templates for that code generation. * I distrust anything that presumes what the directory structure for my application should be without knowing anything about the application itself. * Once I have created the application structure using Plum I am effectively on my own when it comes to editing it. * If I want to customize the auto-generation code for something like a form I need to modify some of the core Plum files. What happens if I upgrade Plum to a new version, or if I make a change that has an unexpected consequence elsewhere in the Plum framework? * There is little in the way of data encapsulation. Shared scope variables are used widely throughout the core files rather than being passed in as attributes to custom tags, so if I create a variable in one of the shared scopes I can easily introduce a bug which affects the framework. * In the few times that I have played with Plum I have always got the uneasy feeling that it would be easy for a client to introduce a requirement after the initial project release that would require the modfication of some of the Plum core files. Without understanding exactly what the entire framework does internally that exercise could be very prone to introducing bugs. Essentially my unease boils down to the feeling that Plum does too much in the way of generating application code and too little in the way of providing powerful APIs that can be extended and used by a developer without ever needing to know how the internals work.

Re: Plum vs Adalon?
I would agree with everything Joe says here. Plum certainly has it's place in the market. How big that place is I don't know, but I'm sure a lot of people will find it useful to them. Having written a few frameworks myself and used quite a few others I know what works for me and a fundamental requirement is that ease of maintenance should be a primary consideration for all aspects of the application. That's why I share Joe's concerns about the commingling of display and business logic. If any application logic has to be repeated in multiple places maintenance becomes more difficult, but often the only way to avoid that is to build abstraction into the core of the application. Unfortunately Plum doesn't really allow for much in the way of abstraction and actively gets in the way in a lot of cases. The downside of all that abstraction is that it takes more time and effort to get the thing built in the first place, and documenting the application becomes more important. If you get it right though, it *always* seems to pay for itself in the long run. The market reality is that a lot of people could care less about abstraction of logic and building for maintenance. They have app requirements and they need the app done quickly. Often, even if they do have the time to build the app, they often don't have the experience to know what will work and what won't. Without having your fingers burnt by experience a few times it is very difficult to know beforehand whether an approach is a good one or not. This, of course is only opinion based on *my* experience, not fact. If you disagree you no doubt have your own reasons and I'm certainly not going to tell you you're wrong. Unless you're working for me of course ;) Spike Joe Rinehart wrote: Adam, I'm not trying to attack Plum. If I was, I'd say something silly and offensive. My observations come after using Plum, trying it out, and taking some of its guts apart. The way it works, what it contains, how applications are organized, and how Plum applications are written. The way it works simply isn't what I'd find ideal. There's so seperation of logic - a page is responsible for both is view and its business logic, making that an atomic capsule. If Plum generated data access and possibly business object CFCs for the tables it represented, and its tags instead used those, I could then at least reuse the business logic and data access portions elsewhere without having to reinvent the wheel. This is a step backwards from the point of frameworks like Fusebox and Mach-II, and is exactly why Plum can be compared to neither. Plum generates code that maintains a status quo of spaghetti code, requiring custom business logic to be spread throughout the presentation layer. Please, before you go spreading FUD due to a lack of understanding, please either seriously learn about the product I'm not spreading unfounded FUD - I've looked at your product in fair depth. I'm not going to delve into a technical discussion of its mechanics, but I've examined them in detail. I've been using Plum since the first public beta. I haven't done anything terribly complicated with it, but I've built some basic CRUD and master/detail applications with verity searching, and played with content management, which is what I imagine most Plum users would find to be about their extend of its use. Try not to prejudice others who haven't even looked yet. Anyone who puts a product into the open marketplace must expect find opinions contrary their own marketing. As some say, any publicity is good publicity. As I said earlier, I can see Plum being useful for basic, CRUD applications. And I can. It's mind-numbingly easy to create simple or master/detail CRUD app. However, what I think is missing is a plug-in point where I can add business logic to my business units without having to continually reinvent the wheel. I really think Plum could be quite powerful if it looked into using CFC-based representations of the tables it acted upon. This is a complete aside, but shouldn't the owner of generated code be the developer using it? As it is, every generated page comes out This code is Copyright (c) 2004 by Productivity Enhancement, Inc. I'm not sure if you meant to do this, but the legal implications of this are enough to bar me from commercial use.

Re: Plum vs Adalon?
The question is not being in favor or not. The question is that the approach claims it will make the application easier to follow, and I find the application much harder to follow. Ok, it is because the FB application was not properly structured, but isn't FB supposed to precisely make the application easier to structure ? Ok, the FB progammer was dumb? But isn't FB supposed to make the task easier for programers? I don't know what failed, only what I can say from the result is that, in that particular case, it is a failure. I don't know that Fusebox necessarily makes any claims about making the application easier for the uninitiated to follow. From the fusebox.org site: the system addresses development problems such as unmanageable complexity, wasteful redundancy of effort, time-consuming code maintenance, and slow development speed. I'm not a fusebox zealot, but I think it does achieve those goals when used properly. Like any tool, in the hands of someone who doesn't know what they're doing it can just add an extra layer of indirection making it harder to follow the code. The same is true of any structured approach, not just Fusebox.

Almost certainly nobody audited their codebase for either closed or open source projects, but anyone who wanted to craft an exploit could have easily added it to their box of tricks.

Re: Capturing Mac's SmartQuotes
FYI,
The smart quotes are not limited to Mac only.
There's a useful reference page about them and other high ascii
characters here:
http://www.cs.tut.fi/%7Ejkorpela/www/windows-chars.html#list
For the project I'm working on at the minute I have customized jTidy to
take care of these and emit the correct HTML entity codes in the
generated HTML.
By default jTidy replaces the high ascii values with HTML entities, but
the resulting output fails XHTML strict validation. I don't remember off
the top of my head exactly what jTidy outputs, but the entities on the
page linked above pass the validation test.

Re: cfeclipse
I can't answer for the Eclipse project itself, but we plan to support FTP and SFTP through something similar to the existing Navigator view. The basic idea being that you can right-click on a file and folder and choose get/put/synchronize. When you choose one of those options you are presented with a dialog box that allows you to specify the FTP server and relative path details. If you have previously performed an FTP operation on that file/folder, or one of it's ancestors in the project tree, those details will be prefilled in the dialog. We might also keep a history of FTP connections per tree location so you can choose push to a staging server or to a live server for example without having to remember and type in the connection details for each. Spike Michael T. Tangorre wrote: From: Rob [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] There is no way to use RDS (if that's what you need). To use FTP with the stable version you can import and export projects (you may have to get the FTP and WebDav plugin - HelpSoftware UpdatesFind and Install... and look in the Eclipse.org bookmark). If you are using the non-stable you can use the file explorer view to edit remote ftp files, but you can not create / delete remote files yet.

Re: CFEclipse Stuido (for lack of a better term)
Hi Dave, I think you might have got your wires crossed. This is a bundled package including Eclipse, cfeclipse, phpeclipse and a few other generally useful plugins. A new nightly build of cfeclipse should be available in the next week or so. Spike Dave Merrill wrote: Um, I downloaded this, no problem unzipping, but it appears to contain an entire eclipse install, some 43M+, with phpeclipse and not cfeclipse. Wasn't this supposed to be an update of cfeclipse, only? Have I fallen through into some alternate reality?

Re: CFEclipse Stuido (for lack of a better term)
Excellent! Feel free to fire me questions off list any time you like. I'd suggest taking a look at a few of the articles on http://www.eclipse.org and getting familiar with the general architecture. Once you've done that, go right ahead and grab the source code from CVS. If there's a bug or feature you'd like to work on give us a heads up first and we'll see if anyone's already done anything. Same goes for anyone else who's interested. Spike Robert Munn wrote: I am very tempted to get involved, but I will be the first to admit that desktop Java development is not my forte and I have very little real knowledge of the Eclipse platform. However, my company uses Eclipse as both an IDE and a client platform for our products, so I have every motivation to get involved. I am going to check out what is involved. No committment yet, but I'm interested. Is there a JS interpreter in Eclipse? We have talked about this in the past and the most likely approach will be to use something like BSF (http://jakarta.apache.org/bsf/). No specific plans on how soon we'll get onto it, but anyone's welcome to pull the source code for cfeclipse down and get stuck in. :) Spike ~| Logware: a new and convenient web-based time tracking application.

I use multiple panes for a variety of things, but here are a couple of examples: - I'm writing a bit of code and I need a function that I know I have written before or that I have sitting around somewhere. I normally work in the Project pane, so I can use a File pane to go look for the file that has the function I need and I don't have to lose my place in my project. Currently (In the latest nightly builds that is) you can right-click in the editor and choose locate in Navigator View or Locate in File Explorer view. Does that provide an acceptable alternative to having multiple views? - Similar to above, I want to use a custom tag/UDF, etc. and I don't remember its structure. Over to the File pane to find it. I can see the sense in this, but again, right-click to find the current file in either navigator view or file explorer view will allow you to quickly jump around in the file system without needing a second view. The only case I can think of that it wouldn't solve is if you were creating links to files in your code (cfinclude, img, href, link for example) and you couldn't remember the name of the files you were linking to. Going back and forth would definitely be easier with a second file view, but I'm inclined to think that we could probably solve that one more elegantly anyhow. - This one is more administrative. I want to look at something in another system, say a test or production environments, or someone else's working project, without losing my place in the current project. Not that I can't find my way back :-), but it saves mouse clicks. Sounds like the right-click option would solve this one too. I have been thinking for awhile that there is no good configuration management tool for dev/test/production web apps in CF. I use the Archive and Deploy features in CF Admin, but there are limits to what it can do. You can't build an archive on one system and deploy it to another from a single interface, for instance. That whole thing is really a separate project from a CF IDE, but it matches the thinking of part of the Eclipse project where people are building administrative tools in the Eclipse platform. Eclipse SDK comes with ANT which is a very powerful tool for deploying to servers. CF admin configuration is a bit trickier, and I agree that it would be good to be able to do this from within Eclipse. Either as part of cfeclipse or as a separate plugin. - Split file/folder panes.

Re: OT: Homesite enhancement project?
You can't assign keyboard shortcuts to snippets in exactly the same way as you can in Homesite, but you can do something that is potentially much more powerful. For each snippet you can assign a set trigger trigger characters such as cff for a snippet that inserts a cffunction block. When you type that trigger followed by ctrl+i it will insert the snippet and prompt you for any custom snippet variables in the snippet. You can configure a different shortcut to use instead of ctrl+i. The reason that this is much more powerful is that it allows you to have an infinite number of snippets assigned to shortcuts without having to sacrifice existing keyboard shortcuts. It does require typing an extra character or two, so your mileage may vary. Spike Paul Malan wrote: I was ready to make the switch from HS+ to CFE until I saw an enhancement request on Tigris that led me to believe you can't assign your own keyboard shortcuts to tags and snippets.

Re: OT: Homesite enhancement project?
The problem that we ran into with this was that Eclipse requires you to have a Java class that gets called for each keyboard shortcut. That makes it kinda tricky to allow you to assign any keyboard shortcut to any arbitrary action since the class would have to be generated on the fly. Either that or we'd have to rewrite a fairly significant chunk of the keyboard shortcut handling in Eclipse. Neither of those options was particularly appealing, so we went with the trigger text idea.

You can't insert snippets via a keyboard shortcut, but we could probably figure out a way to make that work. One possibility being if you have something selected and type ctrl+i it pops up a dialog asking you for the trigger text for the snippet to insert. There are other ways we could do it, but that's one that springs to mind. Spike Calvin Ward wrote: I have to agree with Spike, it sounds like trigger text is far more flexible and powerful than just snippets with shortcuts. Having said that, what about wraparound snippets? - Calvin -Original Message- From: Paul Malan [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, January 13, 2005 6:16 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: OT: Homesite enhancement project? For each snippet you can assign a set trigger trigger characters such as cff for a snippet that inserts a cffunction block. When you type that trigger followed by ctrl+i it will insert the snippet and prompt you for any custom snippet variables in the snippet. You can configure a different shortcut to use instead of ctrl+i. That's something I could probably adapt to... Are there plans to adopt assignable keyboard shortcuts in future versions, or will these trigger characters be the only available functionality long term? ~| Purchase Studio MX with Flash Pro from House of Fusion, a Macromedia Authorized Affiliate and support the CF community. http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=51 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:190347 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4 Donations Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
Re: Restart CF via CFEXECUTE calling a batch file?
The problem is most likely that once the CF server stops, the thread that called the batch file also dies and so does the batch job. The simple way around it is to have the CFM page call at.exe and set up a scheduled job to run your batch file. I think you have to set it to run 1 minute in the future to make sure it works, but that's the basic principle. Spike Matt Robertson wrote: So I am having some trouble with one of my servers, and, as an emergency measure, wanted to come up with a way to restart CF 6.1 via a web-based file I can call from a browser. So I wrote a little file that uses CFEXECUTE to call a batch file that in turn issues a NET STOP of the CF service, followed by a NET START. Seemed simple enough. Only trouble is that only the NET STOP runs. It does a great job of killing the service but for some reason the batch file doesn't finish executing.

Re: Typesafe enum design pattern (another go)
That's pretty much all we can discuss unless you lay out the problem that you're trying to solve. If you explain exactly what it is you're trying to do and why you're using the pattern it should be possible to say whether you're implementing it the right way.

That's not describing the problem. It's describing a solution. Why do you need constants? Why do you need them to be in a class/cfc?

Re: Slow (sorta) site issues - Ideas?
Have you thought about using a web cache system like Coral? http://www.scs.cs.nyu.edu/coral/ If you set the no-cache http header to true it caches pages for 5 minutes before requesting a new copy. With a bit of experimentation it should be possible to track the user agent their bot uses and set the no-cache header only for that. You'd probably have to do a bit of testing to make sure searches hit your site directly rather than the coral cache, but it might be worth a try. Spike Jim Davis wrote: I've a site that while not slow, is most likely not going to take the traffic it's facing. The site is www.firstnight.org - it will get absolutely pounded on New Year's Eve. Since this will be the warnest New Year's Eve in recent memory AND is a weekend AND is a holiday for nearly everybody now I fully expect this to be one of the busiest years ever. Unfortunately we're still a non-profit. We can't afford the kind of iron that this kind of traffic would require for only one or two days a year. Right now we're on a shared hosting plan at CrystalTech which we nearly overran last year. I'm just going through and looking for savings here. 1) An average page runs anywhere from 80-300 ticks. I plan to address some of that by caching the navigation HTML (right now it's dynamically generated from a cached CFC). What do you think? Too high? Way too high? Way, way too high? Many of the pages are quite large and complex (for example the All Events list here: http://www.firstnight.org/Content/NewYears/Artists/Explore/Events.cfm?Type=All ) but it's exactly those pages that are the most popular. As an aside, you can see the current number of active sessions and the current page's tick count at the bottom of any page. 2) My session manager is worrying me. The site doesn't use CFs built in Session management. This allows me to capture user information at the end of a session, but means that I have to manually check and destroy sessions. When a session ends it's saved in a database along with the pages viewed during the visit, information about the user agent and several other things. This process requires several database calls (perhaps a minimum of 8, but a maximum determined by the number of pages visited) and averages in the range of 40-80 ticks per session cleaned. That would be fine, except I may be cleaning several thousand sessions at a shot on the 31st. The system is SQL Server and I've optimized it about as much as I know how (there are indexes on the major columns, I've cleaned out all unneeded data, etc). Any thoughts on using multiple CFQuery statements vrs one more complex SQL call? Right now, for example, I make a call to the DB to see if the session already exists, if it does I do an update, if not I do an insert. Could it actually be faster to do an IF statement in the SQL using only one CFQUERY tag? It seems to me that with maintain connections on this wouldn't make a difference... but I'm not sure (and want to use the time I've left wisely). I am using CFQUERYPARAM and caching what queries make sense. Some other thoughts: I've actually considered placing some of the site on another CrystalTech account (on a different server of course) and using redirects to move the traffic off. Of course there's no way I could get the URLs to stay the same (outside of frames) and I wouldn't want it there all the time - just for a day or two. It would also royally screw up my log statistics. Any other ideas for kludgy, cheap load balancing? I can easily turn off the end-of-session handlers. I know that this process will take a while, but I'm not sure if it's really the performance hog that I fear. It is, after all, spending nearly all of it's time waiting for the database - sitting effectly idle. So what if the clean up process takes two minutes if the thread isn't dominating the CPU? (I will also decrease the number of clean-ups to one every 15 minutes or so in an attempt to clear out old sessions as quickly as possible.) Many (sometimes VERY many) of the sessions in memory are generated from bots. I'm considering creating a ROBOTS.TXT that would prevent bots from indexing the site for our busy time, but I fear that would inhibit them more than I want - if you tell robot's to bugger off do they come back? I'm open to any other ideas. My gut says that with the resources we have we'll just have to live with overloads unless they want to create a much simpler site (and they don't want to do that). Anybody got some heavy iron and bandwidth they're willing to donate for three days a year. ;^) Sorry for the babbling - I'm entering my normal end-of-year paranoid phase.

Re: [OT] Eclispe and Java
You have a couple of problems with the syntax of your code:
1. You need to declare the greeting array as an array of strings before
using it:
String[] greeting = new String[2]
2. The syntax of your for loop is invalid. I'd do it like this:
for (int i=0;igreeting.length ; i++) {
System.out.println(greeting[i]);
}
So the whole thing would be:
*
public class Welcome {
public static void main(String[] args) {
String[] greeting = new String[2]
greeting[0] = Welcome;
greeting[1] = howdy;
for (int i=0;igreeting.length ; i++)
System.out.println(greeting[i]);
}
}
