StructClear

2000-08-31 Thread Stas Newdel

Does StructClear reset keys in a structure to be blank, or does it remove
the keys? Also, what's a function to get rid of a structure altogether?

Thank you

I thought I had read that this line of code no longer works well in 4.5, is
this true?





Is there a better alternative?  Should I be surrounding this with ?

StructClear destroys struct keys.  As for deleting structures altogether,
I'm not sure.  Surely there's got to be a way to unset variables, right?

It removes keys and values.

I don't think there is one. You could overwrite a structure with a simple
value:

One of the nice things about CF is that you don't have to expend much effort
usually to clean up your variables; they'll only last until the page has
been fully executed if they're local variables. If they're in Session or
Application scope, those are themselves structures, so you can use
StructDelete to get rid of your structure:

RE: StructClear

2000-09-01 Thread Rick Osborne

Stas-

The StructClear() function completely empties a structure; keys and
everything.  Let's extend this for a second.  Take the following situation:

   
   
   

A structure with 2 keys, right?  Now, you can clear this structure one of
two ways:

   
   
   

There is an important distinction, however.  Remember that structures are
passed (and assigned) by reference.  So, let's assume that foo still has
some data in it, and let's add the following scenario:

   

Now, whether you use StructClear() or StructNew() actually matters!  This is
because brick and foo now point to the *same data*.  Not copies of the data,
but the same data.  To show this, you could now do:

   
   #foo.bat#

This is perfectly valid.  So, as you can see, StructClear() and StructNew()
will now do two very different things.  If you use StructClear():

   

Then you are acting on the reference, you will therefore be clearing out the
brick structure while you are at it:

   #StructCount(brick)#
   

But, it we back up and use StructNew() instead:

   

Then we are now simply overwriting foo's copy of the reference.  So foo gets
a new structure and brick stays intact:

   #StructCount(brick)#
   
   #StructCount(foo)#
   

In this way, you can see that assigning to foo does not affect brick, but
using functions that work on foo will affect brick (because the functions
take a copy of the reference, while assigning overwrites the reference with
a new one).

So, to answer your second function, you can clear a structure any way you
want:

   
   
   
   

This distinction actually has several uses, but it's a bit tricky if you
aren't wary of it.  I've helped many a CF programmer who were tearing their
hair out because they had used one instead of the other.  :)

HTH,
Rick

RE: StructClear

2000-09-01 Thread Justin Kidman

Not quite true.  Just ran a test and StructClear deletes the keys just like
your loop does.  Here is code you stick on any template to try:



<CFSET myStruct = StructNew()>
<CFSET myStruct.data = "somedata">
alert("#IsDefined('myStruct.data')#");
<CFSET StructClear(myStruct)>
alert("#IsDefined('myStruct.data')#");



I used js because I threw this in to a fusebox app I was working on and
alerts don't mess up how the page looks.

RE: StructClear

2000-09-01 Thread Jeremy Allen

Just as a cool point to bring up.

This is what you would consider passing by reference.

Since one object merely references something else
and does nto actually copy the data and get its
own set of data (passing by value).

So, this opens up some interesting possibilities.

Namely custom data structures among other things.

I am kind of glad allaire did this however.. I
do think it tends to confuse msot people since
I cant think of any other data type in CF that
behaves the way structures do.

CF sucks with recursion still and I would
be very afraid to use custom tags to manipulate
a custom data structure built using this
method.. (Such as a Stack of Queue) perhaps..
was there not a CFDJ article talking about this?

I cant imagine this being overly useful to your
average CF developer,
But I guess in some cases this proves to be
truly useful.

Looping over the structure and deleting each member with StructDelete will
be equivalent to using StructClear, which deletes all keys and values from
within the structure. CF doesn't have a way of representing uninitialized
variables - variables without values.

This is not true.  :)  The StructClear() function does the exact same thing
your loop does - it completely empties the structure of both keys and values
(data).  Don't believe me?  Try it:



  

#StructCount(Bag)#

#StructCount(Bag)#

You will get the following result:

Most definitely.  For the last project I was on this proved to be
*obscenely* useful.  We essentially ended up loading the entire database
(some 50+ tables from a nice relational DB in 3rd normal form) into memory,
not as queries, but as structures, arrays, lists, etc.  (Okay, so we had the
occasional query stored in memory, too.)  We basically denormalized the
data, in memory, for maximum speed.  Everything started at the Application
scope and just worked its way down through about a dozen layers at its
deepest point.  Using this, we got it down to where we could do massive
reports and use dozens of dynamic objects per page and not have to do a
single database call.  It was lightning fast, and that was one of the major
reasons.

The entire system was (is) strictly CFMODULE-based, and everything only
knows its little piece of the system and doesn't mess with anyone else's.
We would pass in a reference to a branch in the main tree (structure) and
that was all that the module would know about.  It wouldn't care where that
branch actually came from or where it was going, it just needed that data.
Locking was easy because the module would only have to lock that branch if
it was going to modify it, and since each module only modified it's piece of
the system you never had to worry about one module modifying another
module's data.

We essentially combined all the best aspects of CFObject and Fusebox without
any of the baggage.  (And, truth be told, the project was started before
either of those things existed.)  Without references, I don't even know if
that would be possible.  If it would be, I certainly wouldn't want to
maintain the code for it.

And, as my parting blow: it's not CF that sucks with recursion, it's the
programmer.  I've *never* had a problem with recursion (well, none that
wasn't immediately obvious as a "doh!") and I've used it quite a bit.  (I've
said it before and I'll say it again!  :)

It works, but too well. It also clears out session vars that ColdFusion uses
to track you. You should either use StructDelete to remove individual

Session.MyVars. Then you can call StructClear on that structure w/o any
worries.

It will not clear client vars, that's a different scope. And yes, you should
use CFLOCK in the case I described below. To be 100% safe, you
should -always- use CFLOCK.

RE: structclear

2000-04-03 Thread Dave Watts

> Could you enhance upon why you need to use cflock?  Thanks!

Any time you read or write to memory variables (session, application,
server) you should use CFLOCK. If you're using CF 4.5, you should use the
SCOPE attribute in your CFLOCK tag, otherwise use the NAME attribute.

If you don't, you risk memory corruption issues, which you'll most likely
see under heavy load. You might think that you don't have to lock accesses
to session variables, especially reads of those variables, since sessions
are associated with a single user. You'd be wrong. There are cases when
multiple scripts may access the same session variables simultaneously, such
as in a frameset, but also it seems that without explicitly locking the
variables, even if they're not being accessed simultaneously, bad things may
happen under heavy load. I don't know why that is, but I do know that you
can prevent it by religiously using CFLOCK.

StructClear(Session)

2001-11-13 Thread Maia, Eric

Douglas said:
 One thing to note, is that with structClear() you will be
killing all session vars and not just the user that logged out.


I just checked, and in my app at least, this is not true. I use
StructClear(session) to log folks out and it works just fine. I just tried
logging in as two different users on two different machines, and I could log
out one account and the other continued with no problems. 

I would think it would be a major inconsistency for it to clear all session
variables for all sessions, since you can only set variables for the one
active session.

If you only have a couple session variables you could just delete them.


structdelete(session, 'variable1');
structdelete(session, 'variable2');


Otherwise, just make a local variables before you clear the session 
then reset the Session.URLToken.


variables.URLToken = session.URLToken;
structclear(session);
session.URLToken = variables.URLToken;


Don't forget to lock either. :)

StructClear(session) again...

Hi,

Recently someone said that StructClear(session) was a bad way to remove
session variables. Why? If I effectively want to remove an entire session
(this is ti be used in a logout template), wouldn't StructClear(Session) be
the way to do it?

Re: StructClear(Session)

2001-11-13 Thread Tyler Silcox

I actually just needed to delete a structure, so I read up a little and
tried out some cfdumps, and according to Jedi Master Forta (Web Application
Construction Kit, 4th Ed), StructClear just erases the current user's
session (and everything in it.)  It doesn't erase all session variables on
the server, just the one's tied to that user's CFID and CFToken, which
includes CDID, CFToken, SessionID, URLToken, and whatever variables your
application uses...

I believe that it will not clear out the CFIF and CFToken in versions 4.x
but will do so in version 5

So it depends on what version of CF you are using

I've just been told that it does this in CF 4.5 as well so I guess its
versions prior to CF4.5 that are "session safe".

Tage,

If you run a the StructClear() against the session scope
you will lose ALL the session keys, including the session
ID, CFID and CFTOKEN.  Once these are gone, it is impossible
to then associate a user with a session.

Well it depends on what the key is in your structure. I personally do not
use a struct for keeping my login stuff, I just use the temp token etc. They
will be independenat of eachother and will expire immediately once the user
closes his browser.

login page


SELECT username,password
FROM cust_login
WHERE username = '#userName#'

will be independenat of eachother and will expire immediately once the user
closes his browser.

login page


SELECT username,password
FROM cust_login
WHERE username = '#userName#'
AND  password = '#password#'

Re: StructClear(session) again...

2001-11-14 Thread Chris Norloff

Using StructClear(session) clears out the entire session scope, including sessionID, 
CFID & CFTOKEN - if this is what you want, great.

It's important to use StructClear(session.structName) if you want to clear only a 
single structure in the session scope.

HELP - Logout (sessionDelete, StructClear)?

2003-11-16 Thread Michael Grove
I have written an application that allows a user to log in.
When the user logs in I run the following code...

I first check to see if the user exisits. If so...

  

  


Then I set some session variables


  
  
  
  
  
  self.location ='https://foo';
     return them to the home page This works fine. The problem I am having is that when they press logout. It does not really logo them out. Here is my logout code... Log Off Failed Logging Off. It does send them back to the home page, but if I log in with a different ID, I am still accessing the site with the account I just logged out with. HELP...I have tried everything I could think of and it is still not logging them out. I have an application file running with this... Not sure if that will make a difference.

RE: HELP - Logout (sessionDelete, StructClear)?

2003-11-17 Thread Pascal Peters
I'm not sure why you have this behaviour. I have two remarks on your
code:
1. The sessiontimeout/applicationtimeout in 
timeout as a value, NOT yes/no.
2. What I do to easily clear session info, is creating the variables in
a structure. Then you can use structDelete on the session and delete the
entire structure. You can add session info later and you don't have to
change the logout code.

 
in your application.cfm, you would change the code to

sessionmanagement="Yes" sessiontimeout="#CreateTimeOut(0,2,0,0)#"
applicationtimeout="#CreateTimeOut(2,0,0,0)#">

    
    


 
In your login, replace session by session.info

 
And logout becomes

    




A good way to track what's happening in your session is to simply dump
it .
You can see if some vars don't get deleted.

This works fine. The problem I am having is that when they press logout.
It does not really logo them out. Here is my logout code...







Log Off Failed

Logging Off.



It does send them back to the home page, but if I log in with a
different ID, I am still accessing the site with the account I just
logged out with.

HELP...I have tried everything I could think of and it is still not
logging them out.

I have an application file running with this...



sessionmanagement="Yes" sessiontimeout="Yes" applicationtimeout="Yes">




Not sure if that will make a difference.

Thanks
