this ? is based off of raymond article on using ini or xml files for settings.
I have 2 sites i am doing that need to share the same data on 2 diff urls, well some of the data but I am going to use the same db for both of them, so I figured the xml file is the way to go. One thing I haven't gotten yet is how to use these settings properly with cfcs. On rays article it shows how to make and initialize the xml file but the part I'm blundering is actually using the settings after that. SO once you have the settings in variables how do you best invoke the cfc with them and then use the variables in the cfc. The only examples I have seen of this is in rays forum app and I dont quite get it. The main thing is to get the db un and password in the cfcs without manually doing each one, I haven't seen anything written on this yet. as usual, I'm sure I make no sense at all ;) ~Dave the disruptor~ "Some people just don't appreciate how difficult it is to dispense wisdom and abuse at the same time." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Find out how CFTicket can increase your company's customer support efficiency by 100% http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=49 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:218525 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
