 And I still desperately want a checkbox in the preferences which
 allows me to _completely_ disable the design view, which MM seems to
 be _completely_ disinterested in offering me. DW is so closely tied to
 the design view that I find it frequently open in spite of never
 opening it myself -- I think just switching between working templates
 frequently activates split mode. (So I take it back, this is my big
 complaint -- the previous is my big wish.)

You may try to hack the MMDocumentTypes.xml inside DW's configuration. Turn
the internaltype attribute for CF documents from Dynamic to Text. This
should force DW to disable design view based on file extension.

Keep in mind, DW has multi user configuration:

No need to say it's better to back up first :-)

  Instead of Control-R to search you can do Control-Shift-R for the

I must have forgotten about this... It had been a while since I'd used CFS/HS+ 
when I got this job and I guess I never reacclimatized to it... 

The fact that DW places
both search and search+replace on the same window and allows me to use
ctrl+F to execute _any_ kind of search I might need is very convenient
to me now.

  I hate the fact that Dreamweaver does not offer a find previous.  I 
also wish there was a way to default the type of search features, such as 
search in template vs search in site..  I think it defaults to the 
last option you used.

That's interesting... I actually never noticed that... Probably because I 
almost always perform multi-line search... so if I wanted to get find 
previous I would just find all in the current document, start at the bottom of 
the list and work my way up... which is what I almost always do. 

Dreamweaver's search scope defaults to the last selected search scope, until 
you select a directory in the file browser, at which point it changes the 
default to search within selected items. It's supposed to be intuitive. :P 
I actually like that myself because it feels easier to me to select a 
directory, hit ctrl+f and enter my search than to hit ctrl+f, grab my mouse, 
reset the select box and then enter my search. ... In retrospect, I'd probably 
feel differently about it if they used either radio buttons or a multi-line 
select box in the search dialog.

2005-02-21 Thread Calvin Ward
As far as I can tell the only difference between developer and designer
views is which side of the screen your panel groups start on, and that the
editor starts the first time in code or design view.

After that, the editor opens in the last used view.

I mostly have pretty good performance and I set mine up as designer view and
then switch to code view on my first document (I prefer right hand
navigation!).

2005-02-20 Thread S . Isaac Dealey
 I remember some of these tool debates on what we use to
 build our projects, and the discussions on dw VS homesite
 VS plum, etc...etc..

 Not trying to get anyone in trouble here, I just thought
 this was a REALLY interesting article from Forta. It was a
 great sanity check for me!

 http://www.sys-con.com/coldfusion/article.cfm?id=696

 So after reading it, what do most of you guys/gals use to
 build your apps?

 me, dwmx all the way. Used homesite and didn't like it. dw
 is like cf to me, very comfy cozy. I've heard about it
 being a resource hog? Maybe so, but I have a big hogpen
 here, no problems with resource availability.

I remember this article. Not a bad article, although I use exactly 0
of the features mentioned in it... When I introspect CFC's I don't use
an IDE to introspect them because my CFC's aren't designed in such a
way that introspection via DW, etc. would really be very helpful. As
of yet I haven't found a need for SOAP in my own development, a CFC
wizard isn't in my toolset because I just don't use wizards for
anything, and debug output in an IDE tends to be much more useful to
people who put all their code (or most of it) into a single base
template with no required url variables. As I use a framework most of
the time I'm not editing the base template and even if I were I'd have
to provide url variables to the IDE in order to get the appropriate
debug output which -- although I could be wrong -- I'm not aware DW
has any facility for this.

I do however still use Dreamweaver for all my development lately. I
tried CFEclipse once and it trashed my project and was very difficult
to work with. It's been a while since I tried it last though, and I
might try it again now and see if it still treats the file system of
all projects like Java projects (which is how mine got trashed). I
used jEdit for a while and was really happy/impressed with some of the
features -- the problem with jEdit in general though boiled down to
SWING. It seems (again I could be wrong) impossible to produce a
clean, fast, user-friendly IDE using the unadulterated SWING
components.

I was a big fan of ColdFusion Studio actually for a long time and I
stuck with it pretty vehemently. These days I'm being asked to use
Homesite+ where I work because of issues related to the way
dreamweaver handles files across a network. Though for my own
development, the features of DW that I've found to be _immensely_
superior to CF Studio / Homesite+ are the project deployment and
search features.

CF Studio / Homesite project deployment (which isn't used at the
office) seemed pretty nice to me at the time until I had to deploy an
exceptionally large project and discovered that there was apparently a
memory leak or the like which required me to restart it after
deploying the project to prevent bad things happening. In
retrospect, beyond that obvious flaw, DW's ability to incrementally
synchronize individual templates or directories via the context menu
in the file browser is light-years ahead of the curve in terms of ease
of use compared to CFS/HS+.

Saying that the Search feature is one of the big selling points for me
probably sounds a little silly. Though when I used CFS/HS+ I used the
multi-file search feature more often than the standard search feature,
even if I only used it against a single template. Iirc there was never
a keyboard shortcut for this feature, so I always had to reach out to
the mouse to open it, which I discovered bothered me after being
initially very impressed with the feature. The fact that DW places
both search and search+replace on the same window and allows me to use
ctrl+F to execute _any_ kind of search I might need is very convenient
to me now.

And in all honesty, I've become rather fond of the single-tree file
browser as opposed to the 2-paned file browsers in CFS/HS+.

My only complaint has been that the project setting automatically
upload files to server on save doesn't go far enough. This feature
has saved me a lot of time synchronizing my projects, however, what
I'd really _love_ is to have this feature extended to every file
action performed via the context menu in the file menu or file browser
(move/rename/delete). Rather than automatically upload files to
server on save, I'd rather have automatically synchronize files when
changed. I actually took the time to create a DW extension which did
just this, except that DW doesn't offer any hooks in it's API for
modifying the project preferences so I wasn't able to add the checkbox
where I wanted it. In lieu of that I added a couple items to the file
context menu for synch move, synch rename and synch delete.
Unfortunately I could never make the extension's behavior 100%
gracefull -- it was allways a bit squirrelly in comparison to DW's
native features and it was never able to support projects across FTP
or RDS properly (or at all IIRC).

And I still desperately want a checkbox in the preferences which
allows me to _completely_ disable the design

Doesn't the CFC viewer in DWMX only work if you have RDS?

I forced myself to go to DWMX this past June.  After using it for so
long, I have no real complaints.  There still are some hot keys I'd
like but always got a headache trying to find the right place to get
them.  Such as ctrl-Y to delete a line and I am sure if I fired up
homesite+ and worked for a couple of hours I could list off a few
others.  I basically have just changed my style some to adjust to the
differences.

Can you elaborate on this? The information that Dreamweaver lets you look at

methods and declared public properties. Why isn't that helpful? What other
kind of information are you talking about?

RE: Good article DWMX. Phewww...I'm not so crazy after all

2005-02-20 Thread S . Isaac Dealey
 When I introspect CFC's I don't use an IDE to introspect
 them because my CFC's aren't designed in such a way that
 introspection via DW, etc. would really be very helpful.

 Can you elaborate on this? The information that
 Dreamweaver lets you look at
 is the same you'd get if you browsed the CFC directly; you
 can see public
 methods and declared public properties. Why isn't that
 helpful? What other
 kind of information are you talking about?

Well at least that's been my impression. I don't use the extends
attribute of the cfcomponent tag for the most part -- instead I use a
separate function which mimic's inheritance using a dynamic path to
another CFC and allows for multiple inheritance in some
circumstances. I was of the impression that CFC introspection used the
syntax to return data about the CFC rather than actually instantiating
the component. If that assumption is incorrect, then yea, DW's CFC
introspection could be useful if it actually instantiates the CFC and
returns data about methods artificially injected into its this and
variables scopes.

 And I still desperately want a checkbox in the
 preferences
 which allows me to _completely_ disable the design view,
 which MM seems to be _completely_ disinterested in
 offering
 me. DW is so closely tied to the design view that I find
 it
 frequently open in spite of never opening it myself -- I
 think just switching between working templates frequently
 activates split mode. (So I take it back, this is my
 big
 complaint -- the previous is my big wish.)

 I never have this problem. If you configure Dreamweaver to
 use the Coder
 workspace, you shouldn't have this problem.

I use the Coder workspace... and I still have the problem
constantly. Dunno why. ymmv obviously.
