[cfaussie] application.cfc and currentTemplatePath
Hi all, I'm using one main application.cfc in the main folder (CFMX7) and am extending that cfc in sub folders, the main cfc has the function currentTemplatePath in it, but when called through an extended cfc it gives the path of the extended cfc while I need the one in the main directory. anyone know of a solution to this other than hard coding the root path?

[cfaussie] Re: application.cfc and currentTemplatePath
Actually now you dont need to do that either.
First of, the extended application should never change the application name,
so in your case that is what I am going to assume. Secondly the
onApplicationStart will on be fired the once, hence when you place the
setting of that variable you can do this.
cfset Application.AppPath = ExpandPath('.') /
Now you can be safe and cflock that if you want to be sure, but that's all
you really need to do.

[cfaussie] Re: application.cfc and currentTemplatePath
Ohh,
Remove the Expand Path off those.
cfset Application.AppPath = 'C:\AppPath\' /
cfset Application.AppPath = '\BaseAppPath\#application.name#\' /

Andrew,
That method is prone to errors if your site has multiple directories and
users book mark directories, rare but if
1. The application restarts (server or cf)
2. The next user that logs in does so from a directory bookmark
Since applications don't move generally
cfset Application.AppPath = ExpandPath('C:\AppPath\') /
In onApplicationStart is safer and fail safe. If you don't like hard coding
and you have some standard naming of directories you can go with something
like
cfset Application.AppPath = ExpandPath('\BaseAppPath\#application.name#\')
/

[cfaussie] Re: CFquery SUM
Hi Claude If you want quick and nasty without a second query you could try select tt.*, tcost.total from transaction_table tt, ( select sum(cost) from transaction_table where transaction_month = 'December' /* Same as like with no % */ ) as tcost where transaction_month = 'December' This will do a cartesian join on the single row in the subquery (treated as a veiw so only called once) and the results so each row will have the total cost. The other way would be a second query that gets the total cost (basically the same as what I've done) Shane On 3/8/07, M@ Bourke [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi Claude, This isn't syntactically best practice but if I understand your question do.

[cfaussie] QLD CFUG March meeting announcement.
WOW! this looks like a big meeting for this months Queensland CFUG and is bound to be a not to be missed event. Why? Because we're all gearing up for the next version of ColdFusion: CF8, which is currently known (or so we're told) as Scorpio. but it's in beta! you say and none can say what's in it for fear of Saurons spies finding out there's lots to find out, believe it or not, if you know where to look. We have our super-sleuth detectives hard at work, reading between the lines in press releases, unraveling the red herrings, leaving no unturned stone... er, unturned (wha-tever!) to prove the point, we've even tracked down a date it'll be released http://www.numtopia.com/terry/blog/archives/2007/03/scorpio_in_august.cfm (and there's other reasons of the suggested date that didn't make it to the comments - come along and find out why) So join us this Wednesday's CFUG and discover the secrets to Dan Brown's unwritten mystery thriller... The Scorpio Code [any references to actual deities or prophets, living or dead, is purely coincidental...] Also this month, we'll be giving the subject of Flex and Coldfusion Data-typing a darn good shake with full demonstrations and seeing what's happening behind the scenes. What works? what's doesn't? and is wishful thinking? guaranteed to save you time putting a Flex front end to your ColdFusion server code. And, as this will be the CFUG's pre-WebDU meeting for this year, we'll be looking at what's on offer at WebDU, how to try and survive wanting to be in three WebDU sessions at the same time - and how to still get something out of it if the boss still refuses to let you go. so, if you're not already a member, sign up to the QLD CFUG usergroup http://groups.google.com/group/qldcfug/ and that will give us your RSVP so you can go into the prize draw (and ensure we do a good job on catering) - we hope to see you there cheers The QLD CFUG crew.

[cfaussie] Re: QLD CFUG March meeting announcement.
The QLD meetings have been awesome - at least the few I managed to visit when in QLD. The camaraderie is hard to beat. A few drinks and pizza - never got that sort of stuff for my UG unfortunately. The sheer depth of presentations, at QLDCFUG, and the varying uses of technology (then Macromedia now Adobe) was amazing. And they manage to get gurus like Tim Buntel for meetings too - that was way back for MX7. And here we are on the verge of so many new Adobe coolness it hurts. Best I have managed was a Saturday phone call from Charlie Arehart from San Francisco. But that was a great conversation at least. I wish I had more help with our UG as the work is building up and sleep is becoming a luxury. So I won't WebDU 2007 (still paying for last year when I shouted a mate lol) but for those that are - enjoy!
