I sat in a client briefing yesterday, and he said something that made me sit up and take notice, could he be right?
I havent used Client variables since CF5, so I dont know if they are good now or not, but i didnt have a problem back in the CF5 days but here's what my client said (he has a lot of experience with CF going back to CF1, but he hasnt done much CF coding since CF5.1) He said, "dont use client variables, because they seem ok but in practice they always cause problems. I want you to write your own state maintenance stuff. I don't want you to use sticky sessions either because if a server goes down the other machine doesnt know the state." The environment is going to be two or three servers running CF7 enterprise, not sure if we're going Linux or Windows yet. What do you make of what the client said? Does it have any merit in current versions? Can anyone attest to reliability (or otherwise) of client vars in CF7? (I should also add there is no chance we're going to use the registry to store client vars - it's going to be in the database if we use them) -- Cheers Mike Kear Windsor, NSW, Australia Adobe Certified Advanced ColdFusion Developer AFP Webworks http://afpwebworks.com ColdFusion, PHP, ASP, ASP.NET hosting from AUD$15/month ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Upgrade to Adobe ColdFusion MX7 Experience Flex 2 & MX7 integration & create powerful cross-platform RIAs http:http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;56760587;14748456;a?http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion/flex2/?sdid=LVNU Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:268777 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
