Shocked!
I just looked at some code from another developer and noticed that they were accessing variables in the arguments scope witout using the ARGUMENTS. prefix to the variable name. I was about to wander over to him and ask him why his application wasn't working when I decided I'd better test it first. I was shocked to see my test function work. I just can't believe that Adobe would even expose those variables without a scope prefix. I know that it does a top-down search through the myriad of scopes, but this just seems flat out dangerous.

CFCHART configuration?
Taking a stab here. I'm working with CFCHART. The way it operates is using
the WebCharts indirect method that makes a temporary file that the chart
is accessed from. By default it creates the following temporary file (with
example parameters).
/{application}/CFIDE/GraphData.cfm?graphCache=wc50graphID=Images/100697.PNG
Now, an application that I'm working on has secured the CFIDE directory
(using JAAS), so now anyone now authenticated against the server cannot see
any graphs produced by the code. Two ways around this.
1. Create a slightly more complex security model to allow that file
to be publicly accessed
2. Configure CF to change where is creates that temporary file
The first option I can do, but would rather not for reasons I'm sure you can
imagine, and it would be much easier for me to do option two. Does anyone
have a clue if (a) this can be done, and (b) how to do it, if so.
Thanks for any ideas,
Steve

RE: Garbage Collection Lag
Permanent Generation isn't involved in the garbage collection process at
all. The PermGen space is where your JVM stores the meta-data about the
classes that ColdFusion is creating constantly. The parameter you need to
worry about is your NewSize. One thing I notice that you probably don't
want to do is set your MaxPermSize so big. ColdFusion uses a lot of PermGen
space, but not that much - especially since you only have 512m set aside for
your total memory size. And yes, you're right, your JVM size is Xmx +
PermSize.
Here are some recommendations:
- You have 4GB of RAM on the machine, you should dedicate much more to the
size of the JVM (assuming this is your production machine). Perhaps 2GB
- Set a minimum PermSize. -XX:PermSize=80m.
- I've never seen ColdFusion use more than 120m in PermGen space even for
massive applications, so set MaxPermSize somewhere in that range
- Make your New Generation space larger. Perhaps 25% of your total JVM
size.
- The -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC setting seems to make no difference in any of
the tests I've run either so you can not worry about that
Last but not least, if you're using JVM 1.5 look into using jconsole to
monitor your memory usage. If you're still on 1.4.2, you're limited to
seeing just the total JVM usage, but you can still monitor it to see how
much it's fluctuating during use. Bottom line is that every application is
different, so you need to tinker with the size of your memory spaces until
you get the performance you need. In the applications I've looked at,
simply increasing the New Generation size helps tremendously.

Subject: Garbage Collection Lag
Hey CFers,
As traffic increases and the server has been up for a while I'm starting to
notice periods where the JVM seems to be taking vacations when it ought to
be processing templates. I suspect that this is garbage collection.
The symptom is a cfstat period for 1 or 2 seconds where no templates are
processed, yet at the same time no templates are queued. There are no
queries running on mysql either, so it does look as if the JVM is at work
and ignoring CFMX.
It gets pretty bad at times, with such a pause occuring every 30 seconds or
so.
Any suggestions on how to reduce this garbage collection lag?
Here's what I'm using right now. dual xeon machine, 4GB RAM, linux. A ps
-e at steady state shows the cfusion process using ~650MB of memory (which
is an unrelated question: how can CF be using 650MB if Xmx = 512M? Unless
the process memory = Xmx + Maxperm?)
java.args=-server -DJINTEGRA_NATIVE_MODE -DJINTEGRA_PREFETCH_ENUMS
-Xbootclasspath/a:{application.home}/lib/webchartsJava2D.jar
-Djava.awt.graphicsenv=com.gp.java2d.Ex
HeadlessGraphicsEnvironment -Xmx512m -Dsun.io.useCanonCaches=false
-XX:MaxPermSize=256m
-Djavax.xml.parsers.SAXParserFactory=com.macromedia.crimson.jaxp.SAXParserFa
cto
ryImpl
-Djavax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory=com.macromedia.crimson.jaxp.Docum
entBuilderFactoryImpl -XX:NewSize=48m
Anyway, any ideas would be much appreciated... does a larger MaxPermSize
increase or decrease garbage collection lag? any other params that might
help out here? I tried -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC but it didnt seem to help at
all.
Thanks

RE: Garbage Collection Lag
Correct, PermGen (class objects and meta data) are not on the heap. Also correct is the the query/session/application variable memory is stored on the heap. These are the memory objects that are getting moved around and collected when obsolete. I think once you increase your New Generation size and give your PermGen a larger minimum, you'll see drastic improvements. In fact, your info that UseConcMarkSweepGC actually decreases your performance makes me believe that the PermGen was causing most of your problems. When the PermGen space needs to be expanded, the JVM forces a full GC. If you don't specify a minimum size, the default for PermGen is only 4m. Since you're working with over 900 classes, I think your PermGen space is being increased almost constantly. -Original Message- From: Terry Ford [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, January 04, 2006 6:24 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Garbage Collection Lag Thanks -- I'll give that a try.

The problem is that the normal garbage collection appears to run less frequently but for a longer period of time. So instead of frequent 1-2 second delays with UseConcMarkSweepGC , you get infrequent 3-4 second delays. The problem is that even 1-2 second delays are nasty when you've got incoming requests of 60+ templates/second. By the time the GC is complete you've got ~150 incoming requests that have to sort themselves out. By turning the GCConcMarkSweep off you don't get as many interrupting events. I like to completely avoid queued requests if possible. One last question... is it correct that all cached queries / session / application variables are stored in the heap, and not perm memory? I use a *ton* of application variables (tables and parts of tables in structs of arrays and arrays of structs and all sorts of other fun configurations) and a fair number of cached queries. Just wondering if the heavy use of memory in application variables affects jvm optimization in any way. Regards, Terry Permanent Generation isn't involved in the garbage collection process at all. The PermGen space is where your JVM stores the meta-data about the classes that ColdFusion is creating constantly. The parameter you need to worry about is your NewSize. One thing I notice that you probably don't want to do is set your MaxPermSize so big. ColdFusion uses a lot of PermGen space, but not that much - especially since you only have 512m set aside for your total memory size. And yes, you're right, your JVM size is Xmx + PermSize. Here are some recommendations: - You have 4GB of RAM on the machine, you should dedicate much more to the size of the JVM (assuming this is your production machine). Perhaps 2GB - Set a minimum PermSize. -XX:PermSize=80m. - I've never seen ColdFusion use more than 120m in PermGen space even for massive applications, so set MaxPermSize somewhere in that range - Make your New Generation space larger. Perhaps 25% of your total JVM size. - The -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC setting seems to make no difference in any of the tests I've run either so you can not worry about that Last but not least, if you're using JVM 1.5 look into using jconsole to monitor your memory usage. If you're still on 1.4.2, you're limited to seeing just the total JVM usage, but you can still monitor it to see how much it's fluctuating during use. Bottom line is that every application is different, so you need to tinker with the size of your memory spaces until you get the performance you need. In the applications I've looked at, simply increasing the New Generation size helps tremendously. -Original Message- From: Terry Ford [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, January 04, 2006 4:39 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Garbage Collection Lag Hey CFers, As traffic increases and the server has been up for a while I'm starting to notice periods where the JVM seems to be taking vacations when it ought to be processing templates. I suspect that this is garbage collection. The symptom is a cfstat period for 1 or 2 seconds where no templates are processed, yet at the same time no templates are queued. There are no queries running on mysql either, so it does look as if the JVM is at work and ignoring CFMX. It gets pretty bad at times, with such a pause occuring every 30 seconds or so. Any suggestions on how to reduce this garbage collection lag? Here's what I'm using right now. dual xeon machine, 4GB RAM, linux. A ps -e at steady state shows the cfusion process using ~650MB of memory (which is an unrelated question: how can CF be using 650MB if Xmx = 512M?

RE: simple URLs like www.domain.com/go/2345
Oh, well that answers the question (even though you already said it) that
you're using IIS. The GetPageContext object will only return the original
request on Jrun or other J2EE server. Try looking at the value of
CGI.QUERY_STRING. What IIS does when it writes a custom response header is
take the original request and append it to the page you're redirecting to.
Here's an example.
You set the 404 handler to /go.cfm
You request http://www.domain.com/go/2345
IIS redirects to /go.cfm?404;http://www.domain.com/go/2345
Your CGI.QUERY_STRING will have a value of
?404;http://www.domain.com/go/2345
You can now do some simple RegEx or GetToken magic to grab the '2345' (e.g.
siteNumber = REFindNoCase(([:digit:]{4})$, cgi.query_string);)
Give those ideas a shot.

That said, the justification for naming tables using singular entity names is that the tables represent collections of singular entities. Exactly my point. The tables represent *collections*. Plural.

RE: adminapi and j2ee packaging
Does Ant have the awareness to take a directory full of .cfm's and bundle it into a .war file? Yes, it's what Ant was made to do. However, one thing it doesn't do that the CF tool allows is the handpicking of datasources and other features. All Ant does is take whatever files and directories you specify and the makes the WAR from it. As usual, the CF team did a good in making something that is manually tasking into a nice user interface. What about things like datasources, custom tag paths, mail server settings, etc etc? Again, these are taken as a group, a snapshot if you will of your current server, and built into the WAR. No cool interface to handpick each one. Basically with the Ant tool, you need to set up a dev environment that mimics the production and then build the WAR from that. Thinking back to your original question, I feel I should modify my response. We have a very complex build cycle tha requires multiple J2EE server instances and quite a few tags be compiled into WARs and EARs, so we need the power of Ant. If you have one site with a simple structure, then the CF tool is definitely the way to go.

To answer your most basic question, the best way to insert structure values
into a database would be to parse each value of the structure into a local
variable and insert those values.Structures are complex objects and
database fields are simple constructs.
Investigate looping over the values of a structure.

Wow, that was a great array of responses ...the code for inserting the
data that I have played with initially is below.I'm really looking to
understand what the best way of inserting data from a structure into a
database... is this an illogical question to begin with?
cfset me = structNew()
cfset me.mytitle = #form.title#
cfset me.mydate1 = #form.date1#
cfset me.mypublication = #form.publication#
cfset me.myissue = #form.issue#
cfoutput
table
cfloop from=1 to=#ListLen(item1)# index=i
tr
td valign=top#ListGetAt(item1, i)#nbsp;nbsp;/td
td valign=top#ListGetAt(item2, i)#nbsp;nbsp;/td
td valign=top#ListGetAt(item3, i)#/td
/tr
/cfloop
/table
/cfoutput
cfquery datasource=library_56
INSERT INTO test_structures (test1, test2, test3, structure)
Values ('#item1#', '#item2#', '#item3#', #me#)
/cfquery

Tim
One of the basic rules of good relational db design is that each entity
(record, row, column) should be atomic -- represent only one thing,
You should not insert a structure into a db
Rather, insert each cassette as a separate row (record) in the db
If there is a relationship among the multiple cassettes that you
currently have in the structure, consider adding an identifier (group)
to each record in the db.
ID
Title
IssueNumber
IssueDate
Group

Just learning structures, but here goes:
When I insert structure data into a database, it's inserted into each
field as a comma delimited list.
In this scenario, I'm inserting audio cassette tape information into
the
database from a form when multiple cassettes are entered at one time.
There are three attributes to for each cassette... title, issue date
and
issue number, which are the fields in the database (along with an
autoid
field).
So if three cassettes are entered and subsequently inserted into the
database, the data goes in as such:
Auto id title fieldissue number fieldissue date
field
1 title1, title2, title3issue1,issue2,issue3
date1,date2,date3
This seems to present a problem in that each cassette does not have a
unique autoid to identify it individually and that may present issues
further in the application...
My questions are:1) is this analysis correct and 2)how can you
maintain a unique id for each cassette in this situation ... do you
have
to assign a unique number for each cassette using some sort of CF
code
or is there a way to still utilize the DB's automatic unique id
assignment feature?

RE: Fusebox
Andrew:
It is better to use {insert methodology here} because of the standards,
protocols and consistency that it provides to all of the developers of your
application.{insert methodology here} is NOT inherently better than a
system that you come up with on your own, it simply saves you time in two
areas.First, you don't have to waste huge amounts of time designing and
documenting your own application coding practices.Secondly, using {insert
methodology here} can drastically reduce the time and money spent training a
new memeber of the development team.Assuming that the new developer knows
{insert methodology here}, of course.Most any deeply experienced architect
- not just a developer - will tell you that any methodology is better than
having none.Developers are the ones that will defend their choice with
religious zeal.As a consultant on many projects using a vast array of
coding languages, I strongly assert that a company that adheres even to the
most simple of standards is way ahead of the game.
My personal favorites are:

Hi Everyone.
We are just about to start a major new project, well actually a
complete upgrade from the ground up of an old project, but I have been
looking at doing it in a much more structured way and I wanted some
opinion about using Fusebox. We have never used it before, but we are
all highly experienced CF programmers (5+ years). What I'm really
looking for is some explaining of why it is better to use the Fusebox
method than just straight forward CF.
Also, can anyone point me in the direction of a good online
introduction to Fusebox as there doesn't seem to be much on the
Fusebox website.
Thanks
Andrew.

Re: stored procedures
Stored procedures are not meant to replace simple queries that have negligible affect on the server - queries that return a small amount of rows, or queries on tables with few indices.However, when your application becomes heavily data-dependant and complex then moving those queries to the database layers will drastically reduce the processing time on the server versus using CFQUERY.Stored procedures are precompiled on the database layer and optimized for that particular engine. In addition, stored procedures can help maintain a better level of security and better type control on input and output parameters. For the majority of simple Internet or Intranet applications built by ColdFusion developers, stored procedures are overkill, but once you take it to the next level, they become your best friend. hey this might sound lame to some of you that use stored procedures and i apologize, but what is the point or what is the benefit rather?

Consuming CFC web methods in VB.NET
This is my last stab at this problem. No other message boards have been able to help me. First, the code... getPlaylist.cfc cffunction access=remote name=getNewPlaylist output=no returntype=query cfargument name=clientID type=string required=yes cfquery ... name=IMPlaylist ... removed for space saving... /cfquery cfif IMPlaylist.recordCount gt 0 cfoutput query=IMPlaylist cfquery datasource=clp_dyn_signs dbtype=odbc username=... password=... .. Removed for space saving /cfquery /cfoutput cfreturn IMPlaylist /cfif /cffunction frmMain.vb Dim MyService As getPlaylist.getPlaylistService = New getPlaylist.getPlaylistService Dim MyResult As getPlaylist.QueryBean Try MyResult = MyService.getNewPlaylist(xmlParser.ClientID) Catch ex As Exception Me.txtHistory.Text += Error calling playListExists function ( ex.Message ) + vbCrLf Log.AppendLog(Error calling playListExists function ( ex.Message )) End Try Now the getPlaylist.cfc works fine from the Flash Remoting application that was built for this client, but when trying to get the query into VB.NET, the following error is returned org.apache.axis.AxisFault : ; nested exception is: coldfusion.xml.rpc.CFCInvocationException: [coldfusion.runtime.UDFMethod$InvalidReturnTypeException : The value returned from function getNewPlaylist() is not of type query.][]; nested exception is: coldfusion.xml.rpc.CFCInvocationException: [org.apache.axis.AxisFault : ; nested exception is: coldfusion.xml.rpc.CFCInvocationException: [coldfusion.runtime.UDFMethod$InvalidReturnTypeException : The value returned from function getNewPlaylist() is not of type query.][]) It does return a query (or QueryBean as XML sees it) and everything is types correctly in the .NET code.I also put in a test function that just returned some dummy text to see if I was able to properly invoke functions of a CFC web method and it worked fine.Just seems to be choking on sending back a query. I know this is a convoluted question, so if anyone has had experience using CFC methods in .NET, I'd appreciate any help.

Re: Consuming CFC web methods in VB.NET
Thanks, Adam.That UDF worked and passes to .NET perfectly. I've always contended that sending anything over a webservice other than simple values is going to get you in trouble. Even in CF - CF communications I think sending anything other than text is asking for trouble. I recomend using one of the many functions on cflib.org to convert the complex objects to xml. http://www.cflib.org/udf.cfm?ID=648 Antother option would be to generate a WDDX packet and return that but you'll need something like http://www.topxml.com/code/default.asp?p=3id=v20020829124758ms=20l=dotnetsw=categ to deal with WDDX in .Net I think.

Verity Search Query Language
I'm attempting to search a CFINDEX against three different criteria -
keywords, date range, and category. Here's the index.
---
cfquery name=q_articles
datasource=#application.db_dsn#
dbtype=#application.db_dbtype#
select * from articles a
where a.published = 1
order by a.date_entered, a.section_id
/cfquery
cfindex action=update
type=CUSTOM
title=Articles
query=q_articles
collection=articles
custom1 = date_entered
custom2 = section_id
key=article_id
body=synopsis, article_title, article_body
---
Now, the user has three fields to enter criteria from: a text box for
keywords, a drop down to specify a date range (values = 1, 2, 3, 6, 12),
and a drop down to specify a category. Here's the search I'm trying to
perform.
---
cfset dateRestriction = DateAdd( m, - #self.date_check#, now() )
cfsearch collection=articles
name=article_search
type=EXPLICIT
criteria=#self.keywords# AND (custom1 #dateRestriction#)
---
As soon as I add the custom1 #dateRestriction#, I get zero results. If
I leave that out, I get a valid resultset. Perhaps I'm not understanding
the VSQL. Is that date check statement valid?? Also, the dateRestiction
field is working correctly, here's an example value of it: {ts
'2001-03-08 09:57:25'}
Hoping that someone has performed advanced Verity searches like this
before. Any help would be immensely appreciated.
