Re: Duplicate query execution in application.cfm for a certain page

It's a simple page without any includes, and it's not being included. Thanks for any help on this, Brent It could be because of a duplicate request.

Re: Cf vs ?
Claude Schneegans wrote: Just as simple as this: they are wrong. 1. Python or Ruby are not more popular than CF 2. they do not achieve the same thing in the same way Don't know about Ruby numbers, but I think there are many more Python developers out there than CF developers. Python runs on more platforms than CF does. There are more Python books than CF books. There are more Python frameworks and tools than CF frameworks and tools. Thing is, Python is a general purpose programming language, whereas CF is a language for building web applications. So it's normal that Python is more popular, just because it can be applied to solve more classes of problems. So, two things: 1) Compare like to like, or at least frame your argument - i.e. Python or Ruby are not more popular than CF, for the purpose of building web applications. 2) Don't be such a fanboy. It's a tool, not a sect. /t -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Cf-vs---tf2436859.html#a6832998 Sent from the Cold Fusion - Technical mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ~| Introducing the Fusion Authority Quarterly Update. 80 pages of hard-hitting, up-to-date ColdFusion information by your peers, delivered to your door four times a year. http://www.fusionauthority.com/quarterly Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:256868 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
Re: input type=Hidden name=status_required issue
Rick Dennis wrote: i have a customer input page that has this code at the bottom of the page right before the submit button. well on the same page i have a checkbox that if checked, it needs to ignore this same piece of code. if the check box is checked, i want it to do this how do i do this since the check box is on the same page as the piece of code having the required field? Rick Dennis The basic problem is that the status_required field is there to make use of CF's magicform validation (see http://tinyurl.com/atn87) - so you won't be able to handle this after the page is submitted, since cf's magic code will run before anything you can do (not sure about code in the OnRequestStart method of the Application.cfc) I'd say: 1) remove the field completely and implement your own server side validation (status is required unless [checkbox]). This assumes that you're already doing some kind of server side validation, so that you can slot this in without too much trouble. 2) Redirect from javascript: Of course, the users lose all the information they entered into the form... 3) use javascript to disable/enable the hidden field (this is a wild guess, haven't tested but should work). If the field is disabled, the value is not sent to the back end, and so the magic validation rule requiring the presence of the statusfield never fires... Plus you still have access to all the other stuff they filled in. /t -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/%3Cinput-type%3D%22Hidden%22-name%3D%22status_required%22%3E-issue-tf2417019.html#a6742144 Sent from the Cold Fusion - Technical mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ~| Introducing the Fusion Authority Quarterly Update. 80 pages of hard-hitting, up-to-date ColdFusion information by your peers, delivered to your door four times a year. http://www.fusionauthority.com/quarterly Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:256152 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4

Re: Use CFMX with SAP
Marc, Check the link again, and watch out for wrapping - it should take you to a page entitled SAP Java Connector (SAP Library - Development Manual). Secondly, this is *not* a webservice approach, it's a straight call an ABAP function from java solution (in your case - it can also be used to develop call java from ABAP functionality). You will need to consult with a SAP developer at work to get details on the function to call, parameters to pass, etc. etc. There's a overview diagram of the architecture in use here: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/8b/91222fa9e611d6b28f00508b6b8a93/content.htm Regs, /t marc -- wrote: tanguyr thanks.

Re: Use CFMX with SAP
Hi, I'm working on an application that gets and sends data to/from a SAP back end. We use the SAP Java Connector (JCO) architecture to expose SAP RFCs as methods in a stateless EJB, and call these from within cf (cfmx running in weblogic). You *should* be able to get most of the benefit w/out having to use EJB (our architecture is a couple of years old, but it works so we don't change it) by just writing some POJOs and deploying them in a jar in your cfserver's /lib directory and then using them via createObject or cfobject calls from within your CF code. More information about JCO is available here: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/6f/1bd5c6a85b11d6b28500508b5d5211/content.htm Regs, /t marc -- wrote: Hello, I want to make a timesheet application for a company that stores al its HR (human resource) data in SAP. Currently employees fill in their timesheetdata in an Excel spreadsheet and email it to the company. The timesheet then is being validated by a Perl script and if OK sent by ftp to SAP. If not OK employees call back to manually correct the sheet. This is tedious and error prone process since it depends on many intermediate steps (validation scripts running, ftp connection up etc etc). When any of these fails the whole chain fails and often timesheetdata is not sent. Having an online timesheetmodule connected directly to SAP should makes things easier: the employee fills in the sheet (a form) and submits the timesheet to SAP. SAP validates the timesheetdata using it's validationrules and generates error messages if something's wrong. The idea is to have these error messages sent back to the client in response to the submit and have him/her correct the timesheet if needed. Since I am a CFMX programmer and not SAP knowledgeable I wonder if anyone on this list has experience with connecting CFMX to SAP.
