Re: [ACFUG Discuss] Unconscionable Adobe Behavior
I think you're getting a bit too worked up. Simply uninstall it and move on. Obviously it bothered you enough to craft an email about it, but is it really a big deal? Just uninstall McAfee and be done with it.

Re: [ACFUG Discuss] incorporation advice
As long as you have a competent CPA AND lawyer helping you along, you should be alright. If you need a lawyer to help you along, let me know off list and I can give you the name of the one who helped me.

Re: [ACFUG Discuss] NCDevCon
You could just as easily make the argument that HTML5 is ubiquitous, Flash is not. It's all a matter of perspective. We look at this through our Adobe-centric lens, and we have a preference for Adobe products. Fine. I think that it's pretty obvious that this is not a purely Adobe event, as well, so that argument doesn't hold water. A telling sign is that almost half the sessions were not centered on Adobe technologies. NC State has their reasons for choosing Silverlight, just as Netflix did. My guess is, that it's most likely a DRM issue as they use SIlverlight for all their Distance Learning platforms, university wide. My original point, which I think you're missing Darin, is that it's not fair to complain to Dan and the other organizers of an event where they offered free recordings (and live streams) of sessions. Someone offers something for free, yet we still find ways to gripe about the delivery method. My overreaction to Frank's overreaction is over a simple lack of gratitude for free content. The Conference organizers, and speakers, of which I am one, didn't have to agree to make the content available. We did so of our own good will and desire to give back to the community.

Re: [ACFUG Discuss] Global Knowledge Ten Dying IT Skills
By analysts' estimates though, that were shown at cf.Objective() there are close to 800,000 CF developers. This represents a number more than doubled since CF 6 was released. I think it's safe to say it's not a dying skill. On May 18, 2009, at 12:45 PM, Greg McTure wrote: I've seen CF end up on lists like this in the past but I believe CF is more in demand now. CF skills alone is likely not enough to be highly marketable but CF combined with Java, SQL, and some solid business analytical or project management skills should make anyone highly competitive I would think. That said, I really am baffled why some well known (like Global Knowledge) names common in IT circles continue to list CF as a diminishing skill set. What do you all think? 5. ColdFusion: ColdFusion users rave that this Web programming language is easy to use and quick to jump into, but as many other independent software tools have experienced, it's hard to compete with products backed by expensive marketing campaigns from Microsoft and others. The language was originally released in 1995 by Allaire, which was acquired by Macromedia (which itself was purchased by Adobe). Today, it superseded by Microsoft .Net, Java, PHP and the language of the moment: open source Ruby on Rails. A quick search of the Indeed.com job aggregator site returned 11,045 jobs seeking PHP skills compared to 2,027 CF jobs. Even Ruby on Rails, which is a much newer technology receiving a major boost when Apple packaged it with OS X v10.5 in 2007, returned 1,550 jobs openings on Indeed.com.

Re: [ACFUG Discuss] Looking for a CF Host

First, I’ll point out that you can find dozens of alternative CF hosts listed at: ColdFusion Hosting Alternatives http://www.cf411.com/#cfhost This is one of a hundred-plus categories of resources and tools of interest to CFers, and a good place to check whenever you have a question like that. Second, I’ll vouch specifically for two hosts (both on that list, though I don’t generally offer any such commentary on the list). One is FusionLink, which is run by our own John Mason, who also hosts the ACFUG site and lists. I’ve heard nothing but good things from those hosted there, and we know that he always is quick with great solutions here as well. More at http://www.fusionlink.com/. Another is the company who hosts my site, Edge Web hosting. You don’t mention whether you’re interested in shared or dedicated hosting. There’s of course quite a difference. I can certainly speak very highly of my experience with a dedicated server at Edge Web. More on them athttp://www.edgewebhosting.net/. My site points to still other lists of CF hosters. There’s an enormous range of alternatives. The challenge is really finding the right one for you. Most will meet your interest of low cost, though again, that’s relative, so you’ll need to investigate or be more specific in your expectations.

I'm not sure if xmlSearch() returns its array by reference or by value. Someone else may be able to clear this up. In the livedocs someone says that searches on the same XML doc are NOT thread-safe within a shared scope. This leads me to think that the array returned by xmlSearch() is returned is a reference to the original xml doc. If that is the case, then you can just manipulate that data in the array that xmlsearch() returns and then write the original xml back to a string with changes intact. I would not write it to an array of structs or a query if you're going to write back as XML to the server or database. Just manipulate the original XML doc and save the processing of conversion. To write it back to the server, you just toString(myXMLObj) within your CFFILE action="write" tag. On Jan 1, 2007, at 8:12 PM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I've not really worked with XML and CF.

Re: [ACFUG Discuss] Problem with XML
Ed - If you are using XML like this, I would suggest you take a look at Spry on Adobe Labs.Also, I would caution you against using CFXML, and suggest using CFSAVECONTENT in its place. CFXML creates an XML Object which takes up more memory than a simple string. If you use CFSAVECONTENT then you do not need to use toString() either. If you need some Spry samples, take a look at the ones I have posted.http://www.infoaccelerator.net/SpryPreso/http://www.infoaccelerator.net/sprySamples/I will also be presenting to the CFUG on Spry and ColdFusion integration next week.

Re: [ACFUG Discuss] Reading the results of a cfselect form element
If you want to see if it's a string you can use:isValid("string",varToTest)On Oct 19, 2006, at 5:51 PM, Charlie Arehart wrote: Hi Leif. For those who don't recognize the name, Leif is the manager of the Atlanta Adobe User Group. Leif, for your need, you say that what comes in is 2 UUIDs separated by a comma. That's called a "list" in CFML. Now, you say you want to test if it's a string. Do you mean you want to test if it's a list? Sadly, while there are several "decision functions" (isnumeric, isdate, etc.) there is neither isstring, islist, nor isUUID. Now, as for separating the the list into an array, you can do that with listtoarray(). But if you just want be able to process the list of values individually, you don't *need* to put them into an array. You can loop over them, with CFLOOP LIST. You can also get at each list element using, funnily enough, ListGetAt, or any number of other "list functions". Yes, I'm pointing you to the docs, since there may be still other options you'd want to consider. Finally, though, if you might be wanting to take this list of UUIDs (or any list) coming from a multiple select form field (or a checkbox) and use them in SQL, you may know you could use such a comma-separated list of values directly in SQL using the IN clause. But you may really be stumped in that you need to get single quotes around the individual elements, to change IN (item1, item2) to become IN ('item1','item2'). Here, CFML comes to the rescue again with a very often missed function called ListQualify (introduced in CF 4.01, which is why I think many missed it). So assuming your form field was ids, you could use IN (#listqualify(form.ids)#), and it would look like the last clause above when sent to SQL. Is any of this close to what you needed? Sorry if I've gone off half-cocked. As always, I hope the info might help someone. :-) /charlie http://www.carehart.org/blog/ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Leif WellsSent: Thursday, October 19, 2006 5:01 PMTo: discussion@acfug.orgSubject: [ACFUG Discuss] Reading the results of a cfselect form element All,Sorry for the beginner's question (and my absence from this list and the meetings).I have created a coldfusion file that has form that has a cfselect element. The multiple attribute is set to true.When processing the form I get what I believe are two UUIDs separated by a comma. A String, I believe.Question 1: How would test to see if this actually is a String?Question 2: How do I convert this String to an Array? Or is there a better way to process a cfselect element?
