RE: CF MX Service Pack Timeline?

Dave,

There is no schedule for a service pack and indeed none has even been
announced. That is not to say there won't ever be one, if one is needed
one will be created, but nothing at this time. You should go ahead with
the upgrade, especially as CF5 and CFMX can coexist so you can test side
by side (which eliminates a lot of the risk generally associated with
upgrades).

Subject: CF MX Service Pack Timeline?


I know CF MX has only been out for a little over a month, but I was 
wondering if there was any timeline for a service pack release? The
reason I 
ask is that we're interested in upgrading to MX, but my boss would
rather 
wait for a service pack to fix the first round of bugs.

The question's more geared towards the MM people who track this list.

Thanks,
Dave.

Interesting. So there's no plans in the pipeline to address known issues 
such as poor COM performance and stuff like that? Personally, I've been 
using the MX developer version for quite a while now and things work great. 
But it's just a comfort thing for my boss to know that the initial slate 
of bugs on a new release have been formally addressed.

Thanks for the info Ben.

Dave.

 Interesting. So there's no plans in the pipeline to address 
 known issues such as poor COM performance and stuff like that?

I don't know how much they can do about that anyway. To provide COM
integration, they're using a third-party product called JIntegra, from
Intrinsyc:

http://www.intrinsyc.com/products/bridging/jintegra.asp

So, I don't imagine that there's much MM can do other than provide JIntegra
updates as they're made available. Of course, I could be wrong, but that's
my guess.

By the way, anyone interested in COM integration in CF MX might want to
spend some time on the Intrinsyc site - there's a decent amount of
information there. I don't yet know how much is relevant to CF MX, but it's
worth a look. There's also another product there, JaNET, which provides a
Java-to-.NET bridge.

The COM problems in particular is being looked at. If there is an SP I
am sure it will address them, but there is no scheduled SP yet.

how about bug: 45938?

I think CFMX final release still contains this bug...

I'm using cftrycfcatch as a temporary solution for this...

I had heard that the inability to do a server-side redirect using
getPageContext().forward() on a form action page (having form variables)
would be fixed in an upcoming service pack.  Can anyone confirm/deny this?

I think when a bug/feature is deferred etc..it gets pegged for a
Service Pack fix though it doesn’t necessarily mean it will
actually get one.

RE: CF MX Service Pack Timeline?

2002-07-05 Thread Ben Forta

Not sure who you heard this from. As I already said, there is no
scheduled service pack announced yet, and definitely no specifics as to
what will be in it if/when there is one.

For now, if you find problems, make sure to let us know. The decision as
to whether or not to release a service pack (and when to do it) is
directly related to the feedback from customers.

RE: CF MX Service Pack Timeline?

I don't know how you can tell what version of JIntegra you're using with CF
MX, exactly. The whole thing is stored in \CFusionMX\lib\jintegra.jar. You
can run the license tool, according to the documentation, but I'm not sure
exactly what that's supposed to show. When I do it like this:

 set CLASSPATH=C:\CFusionMX\lib\jintegra.jar
 java com.intrinsyc.license.JintegraLicenseTool view

I get this:

Intrinsyc Software License Tool
J-Integra runtime, version: 1.5.0 (C) 2001 Intrinsyc Software Inc.
http://www.in
trinsyc.com/j-integra/
Checking jar file jintegra.jar...
Checking jar file jintegra_reduced_logging.jar...
Jar file: jintegra_reduced_logging.jar not Found!
Please ensure that the jar file jintegra_reduced_logging.jar is in the same
dire
ctory as license file(s)
Please refer to the documentation or goto http://www.intrinsyc.com for
assistanc
e
The tool is exiting now... there may be leftover temporary files...

But, I'm not sure if that means that the whole thing is version 1.5.0 or
just the license tool.

As for upgrading to the latest build, I'm not sure how that would happen.
Within the jar, there's an XML document which contains the license
information. I suspect that if you just downloaded the trial version of
1.5.3 from Intrinsyc, and put the license file in there, it wouldn't work.
