Hi Ray,
Just tried it:
<cfset thisDir = directoryList(directory,false,"query")>
Now I get an error:
Complex object types cannot be converted to simple values.
The expression has requested a variable or an intermediate expression
result as a simple value. However, the result cannot be converted to a
simple value. Simple values are strings, numbers, boolean values, and
date/time values. Queries, arrays, and COM objects are examples of complex
values.
The most likely cause of the error is that you tried to use a complex value
as a simple one. For example, you tried to use a query variable in a cfif
tag.
The error occurred in
E:/domains/live/ce/wwwroot/admin/fileManager/cffm.cfc: line 419
Called from E:/domains/live/ce/wwwroot/admin/fileManager/cffm.cfm: line 597

417 : <cfif type is "dir">
418 : <!--- go deep! --->
419 : <cfset directoryList(directory & path & name,true,dirInfo)>
420 : </cfif>
421 : </cfloop>
The whole function that's causing the error is here:
<cffunction access="public" name="directoryList" output="true"
returnType="query" HINT="List the contents of a directory, optionally
recursing into subdirectories. This was implemented due to inconsistencies
between Coldfusion and Bluedragon.">
<cfargument name="directory" type="string" required="true">
<cfargument name="recurse" type="boolean" required="false" default="false">
<!--- temp vars --->
<!--- example: list = DirectoryList(dir,"","","true"); --->
<cfargument name="dirInfo" type="query" required="false">
<cfargument name="thisDir" type="query" required="false">
<cfset var path="">
<cfset var temp="">
<cfif not recurse>
<cfdirectory name="temp" directory="#directory#">
<cfreturn temp>
<cfelse>
<!--- We loop through until done recursing drive --->
<cfif not isDefined("dirInfo")>
<cfset dirInfo =
queryNew("attributes,datelastmodified,mode,name,size,type,directory,fullPath")>
</cfif>
<cfset thisDir = directoryList(directory,false,"query")>
<!---<cfdump var="#thisDir#">
<cfabort>--->
<cfif server.os.name contains "Windows">
<cfset path = "\">
<cfelse>
<cfset path = "/">
</cfif>
<cfloop query="thisDir">
<cfset queryAddRow(dirInfo)>
<cfset querySetCell(dirInfo,"attributes",attributes)>
<cfset querySetCell(dirInfo,"datelastmodified",datelastmodified)>
<cfset querySetCell(dirInfo,"mode",mode)>
<cfset querySetCell(dirInfo,"name",name)>
<cfset querySetCell(dirInfo,"size",size)>
<cfset querySetCell(dirInfo,"type",type)>
<cfset querySetCell(dirInfo,"directory",directory)>
<Cfset querySetCell(dirInfo,"fullPath",directory & path & name)>
<cfif type is "dir">
<!--- go deep! --->
<cfset directoryList(directory & path & name,true,dirInfo)>
</cfif>
</cfloop>
<cfreturn dirInfo>
</cfif>
</cffunction>
So I commented out:
<cfif type is "dir">
<!--- go deep! --->
<cfset directoryList(directory & path & name,true,dirInfo)>
</cfif>
Now it loads a few lines in the filemanager and then throws another error.
Won't bore you with that one too.
I think I will have to find a more up to date file manager for this client
:)
