I posted this on the newbie list and didn't get much of a response so I'm
trying here.
The goal is to take the ldap response and move it from a query object into a
structure. I'm searching on a primary key so I know I'll only get 0 or 1
responses.
My code says this:
<cfldap action="QUERY" attributes="uid,displayName" name="ldap" scope="SUBTREE"
start="o=University of Minnesota, c=US" filter="(&(cn=*#x500ID#*))"
server="ldap.umn.edu" port="389" >
<cfloop list="#ldap.ColumnList#" index="column">
<cfset thisColumn="#column#">
<cfset args["#thisColumn#"]=ldap["#thisColumn#"] />
<cfoutput>#args[thisColumn]#</cfoutput> <!--- for debugging --->
</cfloop>
Which gives me this error: "Complex object types cannot be converted to simple
values."
And I said "huh, I didn't expect that to be an object" So I asked a friend of
mine and he suggested adding the "##" and maybe putting the column in the
variable name because he found CF to be a bit buggy in situations like these.
So I tried:
<cfloop list="#ldap.ColumnList#" index="column">
<cfset thisColumn="#column#">
<cfset args["#thisColumn#"]=ldap["#thisColumn#"] />
<cfoutput>#args[thisColumn]#</cfoutput> <!--- for debugging --->
</cfloop>
I get the same error. So I say "fine be that way" and I try this:
<cfloop list="#ldap.ColumnList#" index="column">
<cfset thisColumn="#column#">
<cfset args["#thisColumn#"]=ldap["#ldap[thisColumn.value]#"] />
<cfoutput>#args[thisColumn]#</cfoutput> <!--- for debugging --->
</cfloop>
Then the error is: "You have attempted to dereference a scalar variable of type
class java.lang.String as a structure with members."
Which (seems to me) to be a direct contradiction of the previous error.
How do I make this work?
Thanks in advance
