Model Glue - Global variables help?

2008-06-20 Thread Will Tomlinson
I've gotten my head around my first Model Glue app, except one thing - Global 
variables.

I googled and googled, and used some examples, but still having no luck. 

Model Glue 2.0.304 - Running into an error. 

My goal is to set a simple DSN global variable that I can use anywhere. I've 
used some examples from Googling, but still
can't make anything work. 

Coldspring.xml looks like this:

bean id=AppConfiguration class=ModelGlue.Bean.CommonBeans.SimpleConfig
   property name=Config
 map
  entry key=DSNvalueleroy/value/entry
 /map
   /property
/bean

bean id=Employee class=model.Employee
  constructor-arg name=AppConfiguration
 ref bean=AppConfiguration /
  /constructor-arg
/bean

I have my controller object, which does not use an init():

cffunction name=showEmployees access=public returnType=any 
output=false
  cfargument name=event type=any /

   cfscript
var Employee = createObject(component, model.Employee).init();
var getEmployees = Employee.getEmployees();
   
arguments.event.setValue(employees, getEmployees);
   /cfscript
/cffunction

I built an Employee object. The Employee object uses an init(), and simply runs 
a query and returns all employees. 

cffunction name=init access=public returntype=Employee output=no
  cfargument name=AppConfiguration required=true /

cfset variables.config = arguments.AppConfiguration /
  
 cfreturn  this /
/cffunction


Then here's the query:

cffunction name=getEmployees access=public returnType=query 
output=false

cfscript
 var getEmployees = ; 
 var myDSN = variables.config.getConfigSetting(DSN);
/cfscript

  cfquery name=getEmployees datasource=#myDSN#
  select emp_id, emp_fname, emp_lname, emp_age
  from tblemployees
  /cfquery
  cfreturn getEmployees /
/cffunction


The error is coming from this line in the controller:

var Employee = createObject(component, model.Employee).init();

Error:

The APPCONFIGURATION parameter to the init function is required but was not 
passed in.
 
The error occurred in C:\webRoot\MG-ComplexData\controller\Controller.cfc: line 
77

I'm assuming Employee.cfc is automatically init()ing when the app loads, so I 
shouldnt need to init() it 
again. I'm fuzzy...

If I take the init() off the controller call like this:

var Employee = createObject(component, model.Employee); 

Then I get this error:

Element CONFIG is undefined in a Java object of type class [Ljava.lang.String;.
 
The error occurred in C:\webRoot\MG-ComplexData\model\Employee.cfc: line 82

Thanks,
Will

In your controller try:

var Employee = GetModelGlue().GetBean(Employee);

This will then get your Employee bean through ColdSpring.
