Scott: The server scope is similar to the application scope, except server scope variables are available to every application/template on the machine.
We sometimes use server scope variables for keeping application metrics here. Each time any of our applications detect the start or end of a session, we might increment or decrement a server variable that holds the count of the total number of sessions on the server...gives us a quick view of how busy a server is. Like application and session variables, server variables must be CFLOCKed. -Matt -----Original Message----- From: Scott Wilhelm [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, February 18, 2003 8:44 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: CFLOCK & Error handling I just want to be sure on the proper usage of CFLOCK, and my question is, where do I use the server scope? Is it for anything that wouldn't fall under application or session? Also, any help (explanations of real life uses) with error handling (cftry, cfcatch, cferror, etc.) would be appreciated.
