Flex Builder 2 Win or Mac $79.95 + free shipping.

It does require qualifications but there are several categories
(student, teacher, staff, home school, etc) and they'll tell you what
is required since it varies based on the Vendor. Definitely worth
checking to see if you legitimately meet the criteria.

Try temporarily turning off any cache-control that you may implemented to
see if resolves the problem. That was it for me. MS has a page that explains

Re: Using SQL Server JDBC Drivers with MX7?

 You can find setup instructions for the SQL Server drivers here:

Cumulative Hotfix 1 - Remove old Hotfixes?

2005-11-07 Thread Ken Wilson
Just curious if there's a recommended practice...

I've previously applied the hf701-60827.jar and hf70161212.jar hotfixes. The
new Cumulative hotfix 1 also includes these fixes. So what I'm wondering is
if I should remove the two previous hotfix jar files...seems a bit redundant
to have them fixed twice and included in the class path multiple times.

After applying the cumulative hotfix the CF Admin System Info page still
shows Update Level as being hf701-60827.jar even though all three jar files
appear in the Java Class Path.

It's easy enough to ignore the issue since it appears to work fine as is.
I'm just curious if there's a specific technical reason to remove or not
remove the earlier ones.

Thanks,

Ken

Don't forget the t-shirt hanging in my closet...

The #1 CFMX Website is Powered by BlueDragon

The seem to have forgotten the asterisk with the kinda, sorta,
patially, maybe someday all the way note at the bottom. :)

The skirmish does seem to come down to matter of marketing vs
reality...with reality lagging behind the image conveyed by the sales
pitch.

Lost in here somewhere is also the issue that CFMX was being
criticized on at least one point (db drivers) without any information
regarding what they did to try and resolve it beyond just leap to a
different vendor. And, of course, the cowboy coder remarks are a
direct result of the myspace.com presenters comments and tales of
their development and (non)testing process and how the users liked it
when the servers went down and the game came up.

Some day marketing folks will get a clue and realize that trying to
parse, spin and defend exaggerated claims after the fact doesn't work
anymore. And attacking respected messengers only hurts them in the
end. The politicians have ruined that for you...we're all too cynical
to believe just anything thrown our way.

Reading it and, more importantly, knowing in detail exactly how it was
conducted, by whom and for what purpose is required before placing
much faith in studies of this sort. And statements, direct or
otherwise, don't necessarily constitute fact...they are just that,
statements.

Statistics can be made to say most anything you want them to and
surveys/polls are so easily biased as to be of marginal value other
than as filler material for the companies that pay for them.

Re: Beating a .net horse! Job interview confirms suspicions...

2004-12-26 Thread Ken Wilson
As Chris said, the Triad doesn't have much in the way of high-profile
web design shops...just few wanna-be's that like to think they're big.
Of those, most seem to tie their relevance to a Microsoft
partnership that they purchased so they could put the logo on their
website. In my experience they tend to contract out work when it
involves CF rather than maintain staff skills to handle it.

There are indeed plenty of companies in the Triad area that are users
of ColdFusion. My employer currently has 23 developers doing CF work
all day every day...make that 8 hours a day, 5 days a week. We like
having plenty of time to enjoy all the benefits that the Triad area
has to offer.  But no, we're not hiring at the moment.

 Well, it does do the same thing. The only difference is that you use

 cfqueryparam, the database turns your query is turned into a

 to the JDBC driver.For all subsequent calls to that query, only the

 If you're using SELECT * within your query, I can see that happening. When

1. You have to have separate mailboxes for each account (I have about 5 accounts, and for that matter Netscape has that issue to)
 
 
 Then you won't like Thunderbird either.

Not entirely true with regard to Thunderbird. I didn't like that for a 
couple of minutes at first either. But then I realized that it was just 
a simple matter of adding a rule for all incoming mail to drop it into 
my local folders inbox...problem solved. Likewise, if you prefer to sort 
some mail into other folders (cf-talk, etc.) just add a rule for that 
like any other mail client and place the catchall filtering rule as the 
last to be applied.

Re:Blue Dragon and Fusebox

For what it's worth, when I read Mike's post I intepreted it as a jestful comment about the competence of the technical professionals at that co-location facility together with a compliment about what a great job New Atlanta has done of building product recognition via your marketing and word-of-mouth. I read nothing negative towards New Atlanta in his comment.

Ken

Geez Mike...

Wasn't sure if or how to respond.

Each seem equally audacious:
 1. Any statement that BlueDragon is the official
 upgrade version of ColdFusion Server
 2. That such a statement could be related to any 
 marketing message, literature or discussion 
 by anyone directly affiliated with New Atlanta.
 3. Supposing most people being honest without
 filtering the supposition through to the people
 at New Atlanta.

Furthermore, how do any of these dubious statements
relate to New Atlanta's marketing budget?

I'm willing to let the question be rhetorical, and no,
I thought none of it funny... for others may question
our integrity based solely on your statements.

I doubt your intent was malicious, but I
feel compelled to respond on the record.

Bottom line:
New Atlanta is a clean, straight-shooting
and professional organization.

Subject: CreateUUID() / CreateGUID()

I am noticing something strange here and am hoping someone can enlighten
me..

My form has a field called userId which is hidden and holds an MS formatted
UUID (----). For now though, I am just
testing out the form and tried setting the form value equal to CreateUUID,
which uses the format (---). I set the form
value equal to #CreateUUID# for testing purposes and it gets passed into my
stored proc via the cfprocparam tag.

cfprocparam type=In dbvarname=currentUserId
null=no value=#form.currentUser# cfsqltype=CF_SQL_VARCHAR /

When form.currentUser is equal to #CreateUUID()# the stored proc errors out.
When form.currentUser is equal to #CreateGUID()# the stored proc errors out.

When form.currentUser is equal to 4572039B-BDB5-255B-BBF5-1B752CEDD144 (MS
format)the stored proc WORKS!
Guess where I got that value? I viewed the source when I set the form field
equal to #CreateGUID()# and copied it, then pasted it into the value of the
currentUser form field!

Can anyone explain why the stored procedure would accept the value when I
manually set it to the value instead of calling the function to do it?

...this HTML cf-talk system

2003-10-04 Thread Ken Wilson
Firstly I HATE this HTML cf-talk system

I don't want to deny anyone the choice of using html email but the option of
turning it off needs to be fixed. Everytime I uncheck the html preference at
houseoffusion.com it comes right back, never accepts that as my preference.
When the uproar over this system first erupted I got the impression html
email was going to be entirely optional. Has that been changed?

And what's with every page load on the houseoffusion site trying to set a
paypal cookie on my pc?

Any hypertext system capable of network operation is affected by

I don't. The only conceivable reason for it being thrown out is
prior art. I fully expect Microsoft to be capable of finding

What might happen is that a court orders Eolas to license the

RE: Cracking the RDS protocol?

2003-09-09 Thread Ken Wilson
I can't imagine RDS would provide a better solution than ssh or scp.


Perhaps not assuming ssh or scp are available options...which isn't always
the case. RDS is quite handy for remote editing and the DB access is nice
for quick stuff though sorely lacking compared to proper tools.

Not sure how well it works via DWMX yet since I can't bear the performance
of using that app. It works really well in Studio/Homesite+.

I've heard from plenty of people looking for a way to beat up on
Fusebox, but usually they have nothing to say when it comes to building
a better framework. This is the first time in a long time anyone has
suggested an alternative approach, and I really don't see how any of
this benefits developers. This mach-ii stuff looks like just another
petty attack on Fusebox.
 
It's pretty clear we see things differently when it comes to building
Web applications. I don't know you, but I can tell you are a pretty
intelligent person, so you probably have some good reasons for why you
don't like or hate fusebox. 
 
What I have to ask you is: do you use fusebox? Becuase there are plenty
of people who are ready to attack it anytime and don't even know
ColdFusion, much less what a framework is. You will probably never be
convinced about the benefits of fusebox, all I can do is disagree with
you, and point out all the great things fusebox does for developers:
 
* it separates business logic from presentation logic, making for more
organized, efficent code 
* it gives developers a common set of rules and methods to work from, so
that everyone can understand what the other people are doing on a
project regardless of the size of a team
* it modularizes and encapsulates code, making it easier to reuse and
thus to maintain
* it is self-documenting, containing a complete, inline XML standard for
documenting your applications
* most importantly, there are thousands and thousands of fusebox
developers out there, and more and more shops are choosing to use it
every day. it is close to becoming a de-facto standard, which I doubt
your mach-ii 'framework' will ever be able to match

RE: Thinking about application architecture...

2003-07-17 Thread Ken Wilson
enable J2EE session variables and take advantage of the clustering and 
fail over capabilities of the underlying J2EE app server (e.g., CFMX 
for J2EE on JRun gives you session replication in real-time).



Are these clustering and fail-over capabilities available if you are
using the regular versions of CFMX rather than CFMX for J2EE? Using
non-persistent session cookies is easily accomplished in CF5 and
earlier. Any other benefit to J2EE session variables on CFMX versions
other than CFMX for J2EE?

Any info is appreciated. I keep hearing knowledgable MM-related folks
pressing the benefits of the more expensive CFMX for J2EE and it leaves
me wondering if going the route of the normal versions of CFMX has
been a mistake in some way.

  My company recently spawned off from a parent company, and
 we're drafting
 a
  non-compete agreement and looking for some insight as to wording.  
  We
 found
  a couple generic agreements, and they used such remarkably
 vague terms as
  ... the Employee shall not own, manage, operate, consult to or be
 employed
  in a business substantially similar to the present or future 
  business of
 the
  Company ...
 
  I don't have a particular problem with signing an appropriate
 non-compete,
  and my employer wants to ensure the agreement is suitable for all
 concerned,
  which is very nice, so there is some flexability.
 
  The company develops a web-based communications management tool that

  is licensed and hosted ASP-style (Application Service Provider, not 
  Active Server Pages ;).  As well as doing all development, we do all

  the sales
 and
  support services.  My concern is that any web app could be
 construed as a
  web-based communications management tool, especially anything
 that's not a
  basic web site (an email newsletter with web-based authoring, for
 example),
  so the definition of competition needs a fairly high degree of
 precision.
 
  I'm sure there are people out there who've fought this battle
 before, and
 I
  was wondering if any of you had some insight, or even some sample
 language.

I believe it was a Win2k server Mike's provider was having problems with.

I originally had problems with Win2k, and abandoned that, and got a new
server
and installed Win 2003 - This is the one that Jochem installed CFMXPro on,
as a
stand alone.

I was getting the freeze up when installing the updater.  First, I changed
the
compatibility settings on the install files to force compatibility with
Win2000
SP3. Then Jochem installed CFMXPro as a standalone, then the updater3, and
lastly we do the jumping through hoops to do the registry hacks, editing the
config files, mapping the jrun connectors, adding ColdFusion services, and
configuring for a multi-homed (several web sites) server. You know, all the
stuff I was griping about before LOL  After this is the Anti-virus program,
the
firewall, etc.

The install procedure followed is:  (plus a few additional steps omitted
from
the instructions.)
http://www.macromedia.com/support/coldfusion/ts/documents/install_cf_win2003
.htm
Once up and running solid, I will publish step-by-step instructions.  It
seems
that the order of installation of modules vs, hacks, is very critical to
success.  Importantly is that Jochem got me past the server freeze-up I had
been
experiencing.

In order to access ColdFusion Administrator, the default web site must be
running, which is not a problem, as I can turn it off when not using CF
administrator.

Now to get a CFMX web site on there for testing.

The saga continues.

Does that, perchance, equate to being a cheap hosting company? And, if so,
are you now getting exactly what you've paid for?

MM has no control whatsoever over the installation conditions or technical
competence of those who claim to be hosting providers. Perhaps your public
anger is better directed at the hosting company rather than the one who
sells a product that has proven itself (at least in other hands) to be quite

RE: FBX3 AND CFMX

2003-02-21 Thread Ken Wilson
I think the reason that people make so many variations of Fusebox
is because they are constantly finding limitations.



Or you could rephrase that in a somewhat more positive light rather than
a negative one: One of the reasons you find so many variations of
Fusebox is because creative developers are constantly extending it to
perform functions beyond what the core framework was designed to
include. That's a lot of what I've seen over the years. I'm not sure I'd
consider adding additional features to be a reflection of an existing
limitation unless you take the position that a core framework should
include the weight of every conceivable desire including 3 styles of
kitchen sinks.

That doesn't necessarily make it easier to follow the modified framework
when you first run into it. If the developer made serious changes to the
core framework code rather than adding those functions as an optional
add-on and/or failed to properly document the mods, then it can
definitely be a pain. But I'd submit that's more a reflection on that
developer rather than the core framework itself.

Subject: RE: CF - PHP comparisons?


Hi Mike,

I tend to agree with your comments regarding the richness of PHP. If
you do a straight comparison of PHP and CFML's built-in functions then
they seem pretty equal. However, one thing that's changed in the CFML
world with the introduction of CFMX and BlueDragon is that you now have
seamless access to the full set of Java APIs from CFML. With the release
of BlueDragon for .NET you'll similarly have seamless access to the full
.NET Framework (APIs) from within CFML.

In effect, the set of CFML functions is being expanded to include all of
the Java APIs or all of the .NET APIs, depending on which platform you
prefer.

It seems to me that since PHP is not built on either of the two major
platform technologies (Java or .NET), it's richness is going to
suffer in comparison as CFML developers learn to take advantage of the
integration with Java and .NET.

Also, look at the way CFMX leveraged the Java platform to implement web
services support (via Apache Axis). PHP is not going to be able to take
advantage of the underlying platform technology the way CFMX did;
instead they're going to have to implement their own solution from
scratch. It seems to me that this will be a major disadvantage of PHP.

 Subject: CF - PHP comparisons?
 
 
 Since I develop with both CF and php, I guess I'll add my .02...
 
 Also respectfully to you Dave, this is NOT a terrible
 comparison. With the exception of the part about user defined 
 functions, the comparison seems pretty valid to me, even 
 though it is quite old.
 
 In addition, php has made great strides in the last couple of
 years: There are at least 3 very good IDE's for php (Zend 
 Studio, Nusphere PhpEd and Activestate Komodo), as well as 
 some decent simple code editors (php coder/Maguma Studio, etc.
 
 Zend has done some other great things for php, like code
 encryption, acceleration, caching, etc. Granted these 
 products are not free, but their new 'Small Business Program' 
 lets you get all of that stuff with the IDE for a $295 
 lifetime payment. This is an absolute bargain.
 
 Now I still love the CF language, and it's what I prefer to
 code in, for its ability to let me get projects done quickly. 
 But over the years of using CF I've developed my own 
 'methodology', that implements the Application Framework, as 
 well as some other ways of doing things that are sort of like 
 Fusebox (only simpler). I've personally found that I can use 
 this same framework in php as well, and the only thing that 
 changes is the syntax of the language. Many things in php 
 (switch/case for example) are almost identical in both 
 languages (using the CF version with cfscript tags of course).
 
 And don't think that php isn't 'rich'. More than once I've
 sat down to write a function in php and realized part way 
 through that there was already a built in function to 
 accomplish the task.
 
 To me, it all boils down to what Sean said  both
 languages have their strengths and weaknesses. Use the right 
 tool for the task at hand. I'm not even going to comment on 
 ASP (ugh), but php is a fine tool in its own right and even 
 though it does take longer to develop with than CF (for me), 
 it still allows me to do some cool stuff for clients, which 
 makes them (and me) happy.

2003-02-02 Thread Ken Wilson
Does it have to be in a pop-up window for some reason or can you just use
existing CSS functionality to control what gets printed?

Subject: Using CF to pull content from with div  tags for printing


Hello list -
I have been messing with this- but I do not know how to complete a few
aspects.

I would like to control printing  from a webpage that heavily uses CSS
styles and positioning for layers.

What I would like to do is supply a print button - on click - it would
launch a 2nd window - and tag all the content from within a div tag OR a
custom tag I put in like...
!-- Grab content starting here --
!-- Grab content End here --

So I would use CF to grab all text within that section ( and it's styles
) and dynamically write that to a printed page that has a special high
quality logo, address and header information.

Any help is GREATLY appreciated.

The long route I can replace all content with an include template - and
completely seperate content from html tags - BUT that would require a
fair amount of work on the site AND there are cases where due to
formating - I can't include all content on 1 include file.
But IF I could use this - it would be great - because the pop up
template would have a header and a footer - with the content include in
the middle - so that should give the picture.
Thanks!!

RDS/Database views timeout under CFMX

2003-01-31 Thread Ken Wilson
Wondering if anyone might suggest a solution or direction to look in
solving a problem. When trying to expand the database tables list in the
CF Studio database tab we're getting a timeout error after about 30
seconds. The specific error is:

The database objects could not be retrieved due to an error: Error -1
occured: The operation timed out.

The problem does not appear when accessing the database via CF5 Server,
only via CFMX. This particular database has a huge number of tables in
it so I'm guessing there must be a timeout setting somewhere in CFMX
that is controlling it. Smaller databases do not exhibit the problem.
The timeout that is kicking in is significantly shorter than the
timemout set in the DSN panel in CF Admin so I'm thinking this timeout
is being controlled elsewhere.

Has anyone seen and solved this problem already? Any ideas where I might
start a search...other than MM support. Not trying to shun them, just
prefer to investigate it a bit before whipping out my CC.  :)

Any suggestions appreciated.

Ken

RE: CFMX on J2EE for Linux Performance Brief

2003-01-09 Thread Ken Wilson
In scanning through it one question pops to mind. On page 7 it states that
trusted cache was enabled on both CFMX Enterprise and CFMX for JRun but it
does not state that it was turned on for CF5. Wouldn't that tend to skew the
results in favor of the CFMX flavors from the outset? Right after the
release of CFMX I seem to recall some folks discussing that file system
access was noticeably slower under CFMX (particularly to Fusebox folks with
lots of cfincludes) which makes me wonder what a more equivalent comparison
between CF5 and CFMX would reflect.

Try deleting your cookie for our site. There were some changes to the

Since you're going directly to the notification page, you must have chosen

I work remotely for my company and connect to our development servers via
VPN.  I am using ColdFusion Studio version 5 because there are bugs that I
have reported in Dreamweaver MX, specific to rewriting my code upon save.

Although my connection to my home office is over high speed (cable), using
RDS
is much faster than using UNC paths (e.g. \\servername\sharename).

Recently, I have started on a new project and am collaborating with two
developers in the home office.  We need to use Visual Source Safe so we
don't
step on each other's changes to the source code.

I have configured a PROJECT in CF Studio 5 and set the  Location of Project
File to rds://scsdb01/E:\webdev_root/oesv2/webroot.   The project creates
just fine.  Now, when I right click on the project that I created and select
Source Control...Map Project to Source Control... My VSS client pops up, I
log
in and then select the VSS project that I wish the CF Studio project to use.
As soon as I do this, Visual Source Safe pops up an error that says:

Invalid DOS path: rds://scsdb01/E:\webdev_root/OESv2/webroot

What I suspect is happening here is that VSS doesn't understand RDS and is
using the working path specified in CF Studio.

I am wondering though if any gurus out there have any idea on ways to work
around this unfortunate problem.

Thank you,
Grant Szabo

Thanks, Mike.  It works(sorta).

Below is my original code:

cfloop query=qry_licenseInfo
cfif len(qry_licenseInfo.softwareUsers)
cfset variables.totalSoftwareUsers =
variables.totalSoftwareUsers + val(qry_licenseInfo.softwareUsers)
/cfif
cfif len(qry_licenseInfo.softwareUsers)

/cfif
cfif len(qry_licenseInfo.softwareUsers)
cfset variables.totalRequiredLicenses =
variables.totalSoftwareUsers + val(qry_licenseInfo.requiredLicenses)
/cfif
cfif len(qry_licenseInfo.softwareUsers)
cfset variables.totalRequiredUpgrades =
variables.totalSoftwareUsers + val(qry_licenseInfo.requiredUpgrades)
/cfif
/cfloop

Here's what I did with your suggestion:

cfset variables.totalSoftwareUsers =
arraySum(listToArray(valueList(qry_licenseInfo.softwareUsers)))
cfset variables.totalCurrentLicenses =
arraySum(listToArray(valueList(qry_licenseInfo.currentLicenses)))
cfset variables.totalRequiredLicenses =
arraySum(listToArray(valueList(qry_licenseInfo.requiredLicenses)))
cfset variables.totalRequiredUpgrades =
arraySum(listToArray(valueList(qry_licenseInfo.requiredUpgrades)))

However, I've run into a snag.  The query I'm working with is returning
empty strings for some of the records.  When this occurs, I am getting this
for output:
Total Software Users: 2.12453679578E-314

Is there something I can tweak?  The single cfset is much more economical
overhead wise, but I'm not sure what to change to get a 0 when nothing but
empty strings are contained in the result set for each aggregate list.

Thanks again for the help!

RE: _date bug in CF5.0, possibly CFMX as well

2002-11-22 Thread Ken Wilson
One of our developers here just encountered a situation today where he
was using _date in a text field name but had no hidden fields as
mentioned that you would expect to trigger the server-side validation.
Nontheless, the error message was thrown suggesting server-side
validation had taken place.

I've not had time to dig into the issue yet but something odd is
definitely happening.

Subject: RE: _date bug in CF5.0, possibly CFMX as well


 Long time ago, I found form field suffix with _date
 would be ignored/unrecognized by CF5.0 either using
 regular FORM submit or CFFORM submit. I may be caused
 by the CFFORM's date type validation and unwittingly
 extended to FORM as well.
 I let it slip for guessing other people would come
 cross it as well and report it, then, Macromedia would
 issue a patch to fix it.  So far, I'ven't heard of
 such a patch.
 
 No workaround, some database column ends with _date,
 e.g. OrderEntry_Date, which is totally normal and
 common, and one is not supposed to change a given
 database's structure, some one argues that a column
 name should not contain _ (underscore), I think
 that's nonsense, it does not break any normalization
 rules.
 
 Folks, correct me, if I'm wrong.

This isn't a bug, and doesn't have anything to do with CFFORM
validation. Within any HTML form, there are some reserved suffixes for
use with CF's built-in server-side validation rules. The suffix _date
is one of them. If you name a form field  dob (for date of birth),
say, and you want to enforce the entry of only date values, you could
add a hidden form to your field called dob_date:

Date of Birth: input type=text name=dob
input type=hidden name=dob_date value=You must enter a valid date
for date of birth! input type=hidden name=dob_required value=You
must enter your date of birth!

So, again, this isn't a bug. If you design a database schema for use
with a CF application, you may want to avoid the use of field names that
end with _date or any of the other six validation rule suffixes. Or,
if you're determined to use those field names, you simply have to deal
with it in your SQL statements:

cfquery name=UpdStuff ...
UPDATE mytable
SETOrderEntry_Date = cfqueryparam
value=#Form.OrderEntryDate#
.
WHERE  ...
/cfquery

I'm pretty sure this is listed somewhere within the documentation, as
well.

You may not feel that semantics is important, but the foundation of an

be costly to organizations. Further, using incorrect semantics can lead
to loss of opportunities.

RE: cfprocparam / dbvarname issue?

2002-10-22 Thread Ken Wilson
FWIW, whoever wrote the Code Analyzer for CFMX knows it. Here's the text of
what it tells you when it encounters dbvarname:

###

Dbvarname Info
The DBVARNAME attribute for CFPROCPARAM is ignored in ColdFusion MX.

How to Fix
If your application is dependent on name/value CFPROCPARAM entries, you must
change them so the parameters are specified positionally.

###

And here's some of what the docs say:

dbVarName
Required for named notation
Parameter name that corresponds to the name of the parameter in the stored
procedure.

CFPROCPARAM in the CFML Reference
Usage
Use this tag to identify stored procedure parameters and their data types.
Code one cfprocparam tag for each parameter. The parameters that you code
vary based on parameter type and DBMS. The order in which you code
cfprocparam tags depends on whether the stored procedure uses positional or
named notation:

Positional notation: ColdFusion passes parameters to the stored procedure in
the order in which they are defined
Named notation: The dbVarName for the parameter must correspond to the
variable name in the stored procedure on the server.

Macromedia!


Is it possible you are trying to index a recordset over 250,000 records?

The following is paraphrased from a Verity publication detailing the
Macromedia OEM agreement:

Here is a list of key counts limits by product per Verity:

ColdFusion Professional:125,000 Documents Max.
ColdFusion Enterprise:  250,000 Documents Max.
ColdFusion Advanced:175,000 Documents Max.
Coldfusion Developer Edition:   10,000 Documents Max.

Features _NOT_ included with Macromedia's OEM agreement:

1. Brokered Search
2. Does not have access to any of Verity's automatic classification
tools. 3. Does not support Relational Taxonomies. 4. Does not provide
integration with a company's chosen security context. 5. Does not
provide Verity's full document viewing capabilities. 6. Does not provide
Verity's recommendation engine. 7. Does not provide a parametric search
interface. 8. Does not provide hit count display for categories or
parametric attribs. 9. Does not provide Federated search capabilities.
10. Does not provide Verity Gateways to content management solutions.
11. Does not provide Verity Gateways to enterprise e-mail applications.

/verity

As you can see according to Verity, there is no limitation of the Verity
query language built into the Macromedia OEM agreement.  Since this
document is provided by Verity when they are trying to sell K2 to orgs
that already have CFMX, I'm very confident that if sections of the query
language had been limited or smurfed as part of the oem agreement, then
Verity would have clearly stated this in big bold letters ;).

I think you can safely read into this that the fact specific functions
are not working in the CFMX verity implementation (like delete and
soundex), is most likely due to a mistake in packaging on Macromedia's
part.  Someone from MM please address this thread!

However, if there is indeed language level limitations in this OEM
product, Macromedia has a responsibility to its developers to make a
clear statement regarding exactly what is and isn't in this release!

A few of you have asked for alternatives to the technology due to your
aggravation with this implementation.  Here are my thoughts on the
matter:

1. For a large loose text/document search project I would recommend
purchasing Verity's K2 server. I would urge you NOT to judge the Verity
product based upon the oem experience delivered by the Verity97
agreement with Allaire, and the K2 agreement with macromedia.  Verity's
K2 is an extremely powerful product, and in my opinion the best in the
field, but it is priced as such.

2. Consider using some of the database free text search utilities.
Microsoft and Oracle both offer free text search utilities that run on
their DB engine.  MS specifically has a SOUNDEX implementation in their
T-SQL implementation.  This solution will place a considerably heavier
burden on you as the developer, but is perhaps a more cost effective
solution.  You will likely never match verity's implementation of
thesaurus matching, and other really cool things their engine does, but
you can build a half way decent data centric search.

3. Look into competing technologies.  Inktome is also a good search
engine tool that you can license for your App.  I haven't used them in
the last 18 months, but I know they used to offer a pay as you go
solution. .01 cents per query, etc.  For a smaller load site this could
often also be a viable alternative considering the entry cost of a K2
server.


Good luck,

RE: The Hidden CF factor was RE: How Good is the Job Market for ColdFusion?

2002-10-16 Thread Ken Wilson

Huh?! That makes no sense whatsoever. How does being eminently suitable
for high-volume sites in any way negate the reality that it's widely
used for internal applications? And, of course, internal apps are
frequently far, far more data intensive than public sites and are
heavily trafficked to boot.

This whole 'Hidden CF Factor' sort of reminds me of 'Wagner's music is
better than it sounds' or perhaps 'Pay no attention to the man behind
the curtain.'

What hogwash! Basic statistics tell us that there is probably as much
'hidden' (read: 'intranet') ASP, PHP, and J2EE, proportionately, as
their is CF.

On the other hand if MM *insists* that CF is 'more pervasive than the
visible penetration would indicate' then that puts the lie to what
Allaire and MM have said all along...that CF is eminently suitable for
high-volume sites in which usage patterns are unpredictable.

In all, they can't have it both ways, now can they? :-)

RE: The Hidden CF factor was RE: How Good is the Job Market for ColdFusion?

2002-10-16 Thread Ken Wilson

A Yankee Group report from Oct 2001 (AFAIK it's the latest on the topic)
lists CF as the #2 platform used in IT infrastructure/intranet
applications.

Well, there are lies, damn lies, and statistics...



And then there's the truth...which that report may reflect or may not. In
any event, what would you claim was the #2 platform in Oct 2001?

RE: Pro v Enterprise? (was: The Hidden CF factor was RE: How Good is the Job Market for ColdFusion?

2002-10-16 Thread Ken Wilson

20 developers all happily doing CF development. We currently have v4.5 ENT,
v5 ENT and MX servers in the mix, mostly on Windows with 1 or 2 Solaris
thrown in for fun. Debating whether to take v4.5 apps to v5 or straight on
to MX...hmmm, Friday morning in-house CFUG meeting should be interesting.

In any event, we mostly work on development servers mirroring the production
boxes. Being subject to the security regs of a larger organization, we're
not supposed to be running web servers locally so *most* of us don't. Those
that do tend to be running v5 Developer against Apache and MX Developer
using the internal web server.

The more we explore MX capabilities the less reason we see to move
elsewhere...quite excited about where things are headed actually.

RE: CFMX Developer Edition wish was Re: Pro v Enterprise?

2002-10-16 Thread Ken Wilson

Actually, I believe v5 is a single-IP version, accepting connections from
whatever IP address hit it first after the service started. Cycling the
service was all that was required to let someone else test a site. MX
appears to require editing a text file to accomplish that goal which is a
real annoyance. The extra IP is nice but fixing that annoyance would be even
nicer.

The Dev edition in CF5 only allowed the local machine to connect, so the
extra IP address was a step in this direction on CFMX.

But I'd be interested to know how many folks feel strongly about this, so I
can pass it along.

Sean and others -- I have a wishlist item I would like to see included
in a future release (update).

Like Sean I use the developer edition on a Mac TiBook, I deploy on
other platforms, usually shared hosts.

I have found a couple of instances where the 2-IP limit is restricting
demonstrations and testing.

I would like to see it expanded to 3 or 5 -- anything that would allow
a little more flexibility, without enabling it to be used for
production (protecting Macromedia's interests).

I think this could be done -- others have a similar arrangement.

If I recall, Sybase Developer allows 25 db connections and Oracle
Developer is similar.

Anyone else see a need for this?

TIA

Dick
