Re: adobe certification site
That is coming soon! We have the help ready to go as a standalone eclipse help package... the only problem now is actually getting it to find stuff for you. Looking into this soon!

Re: adobe certification site
I received a couple of emails about this certification thing. Adobe told me that they did have an error when they migrated the data from the old Macromedia database to their database and that they're correcting it as soon as they can. And the certification kits are in the process of being sent out now.

Re: adobe certification site
I wondered about that. That's a case of pretty mediocre UI design, because the questoin is poorly written. It doesnt want you to put in the username/password they sent you already, because they havent sent one. It wants you to put in the username/password you want to use, i.e. create one. Just follow the link they put in the email (because that contains the code to link your account details as a temporary username), and when it says "username" and "password" enter something you want to use, 6-16 characters.

In a conversation with Mike Dinowitz shortly ago, he indicated to me that an early version of ColdFusion MX allowed him to examine the code generated by an IIF statement and that in fact it was identical to what most people would write as a comparable cfif statement, i.e. that the generated code doesn't perform an evaluation, it merely writes the variable name directly into the generated code. So if I write iif(condition,"a","b") there would be no evaluation occurring in the java bytecode (since it no longer generates the class files that let him examine generated code). I gather that if you were to place variables in those arguments, iif(condition,a,b) then it would need to perform evaluation somewhere, although this is uncommon usage as it's fairly rare that we actually want to use a variable to hold the name of another variable and then putting a variable containing the name of another variable in an IIF() would just make the whole codeblock god-awful confusing in most cases. :) Of course, this is now third hand information, so ... s. isaac dealey 434.293.6201 new epoch : isn't it time for a change? add features without fixtures with the onTap open source framework http://www.fusiontap.com http://coldfusion.sys-con.com/author/4806Dealey.htm ~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:237652 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54

Or so I've heard. I don't think it's true now, and I don't think it was true before. This strikes me as "old wives' tale" material. The IIf thing was (and presumably still is) true, because people typically don't actually write equivalent CFIF/CFSET stuff. IIf evaluates all of its arguments, which is an expensive thing to do. But, even if at any point it were true, coding for it specifically isn't necessarily a sensible strategy, since it may not be true in future versions of CF. And, even if that weren't an issue, the performance differences between these sorts of things would be negligible in any case. If you're worried about optimization, look at your database access and caching strategies. There's almost always room for significant improvement there.

I'll second that. It seems that more and more languages today are moving /away/ from the difficult coding practices like strict typing. More and more developers are finding that strict rules generally don't bring anything valuable to the party, yet they /do/ make things a lot more cumbersome and inefficient. --- [INFO] -- Access Manager: This transmission may contain information that is privileged, confidential and/or exempt from disclosure under applicable law.

Most languages that are more strictly typed do not use different comparison operators for different data types, generally. For example, (a == b) doesn't tell you whether a and b are strings or integers, just that whatever data type a is, b will also have to be (or at least, it will need to be implicitly cast to that data type if possible).

That's probably a good point because once it is compiled down to a java class it all looks the same. I think the speed was probably only in the compiling of the file while CF took all of the non-typed language and turned it into java matching the appropriate variable types necessary.

I remembered someone saying this had been debunked as something that was true at one point in time but no longer true with recent versions of CF, like the idea that cfscript is faster than tags or the fact that iif() is slow compared to equivalent cfif and cfset statements. Both of these two latter examples are items which were true once upon a time, but not with recent versions.

Re: CFML syntax (was "RE: adobe certification site")
>>they're just trying to make it easier for newbies. Actually, I think the purpose is rather to make it easier for the compiler. This whole thing starter with Algol, if I remember correctly, which introduced the := symbol for assignment. It was then used by Pascal, which was the first "Formal language". Personnally, I'm not impressed by a language "easier to compile", since the main purpose of a language is not to be compiled, but used by programers. -- ___ REUSE CODE!

RE: adobe certification site
> But at least they're similar symbols and not totally > different. At least be consistent in your inconsistency. JavaScript / Java / C / C++ (and some others) = : assignment == : equivalence != : negated equivalence ColdFusion = : assignment is : equivalence is not : negated equivalence eq : equivalence neq: negated equivalence I don't see how that's more inconsistent than the other languages. It's a different operator -- you have to learn the operator regardless of which language you use. The choice of "is" and "is not" for ColdFusion was made for the sake of making the language easier to read for English speakers. (Yes I know not everybody speaks english.)

RE: adobe certification site
= is an assignment operator, not a comparison operator. EQ and IS are comparison operators. I wouldn't say it's an inconsistency. It actually makes a little more sense. With that said, I screw it up all the time. However, one thing that's helped me is that at MAX in New Orleans we covered some performance tips and if you use EQ on numerical comparisons and IS on string comparisons, the performance will be better.

Re: adobe certification site
Yes, "Advanced" is used on that site. There is a category called "Certified Advanced Coldfusion MX Developer, and one called "Certified Advanced Macromedia ColdFusion MX7 Developer, as well as the one we seem to have been downgraded to:Certified ColdFusion MX Developer.

Re: adobe certification site
Well, I thought you all were crazy. But then I checked...and you're not :-) Macrodobe has me listed correctly (http://www.macromedia.com/v1/handlers/index.cfm?ID=23544#W), but the certification site does not. Maybe it's just a recording flaw.

Mine too.I think by the looks of it they've mucked up the transfer of the data from Macromedia's database to Adobe's.
