RE: [CFCDev] CFObject Creation Count

[Joe Eugene]

The variable that increments the "object Count Instantiation" is a "static variable". "Static variables belong to the Class, Not to any objects created"   Try creating objects in a loop from a driver class or something.. and increment the "object count in the contructor"... You can see whats happening.   Why do you have do this? rbo = createObect("Java","RedBackObject").init();   So this doesnt call the default constructor? If it doest...what does it call? rbo = createObect("Java","RedBackObject");   Joe Eugene -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of Adam Wayne Lehman Sent: Friday, September 05, 2003 5:52 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [CFCDev] CFObject Creation Count I’m not familiar with redBack biz objects, but not to leave you hanging with no replies I’ll add my 2 cents.   I wouldn’t assume that an init() construct is called automatically. Also why is one object aware of the number of all identical objects? Is it just an inherited method? I mean, if the object is supposed to be blind to it surroundings, then getTickCount() would have to rely on asking another ‘watching’ object for that information. Right?   I dunno. I’m just taking stabs in the dark. Don’t listen to me.   But I do feel confident in saying you have to explicitly call the constructor.

Anybody? ----- Original Message ----- From: Joe Eugene To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, September 04, 2003 10:29 AM Subject: [CFCDev] CFObject Creation Count   I have a JavaBean API that i use to Connect to our DB via an Object Server(RedBack Business Objects)   The Constructor Increments a Static variable everytime an Object is Instanciated from the API.   private static int objCount; public RedBackObect{ objCount++; }   I am looking track DB Usage from the NO of Objects created and do some stess testing as well. Now.. If the objects are invoked in a CFC - CFFunctions like   <cfset var rbo = "" /> <cfscript> rbo = createObect("Java","RedBackObject").init(); // this should call the default contructor //do some stuff with the rbo. objCount = rbo.getObjectCount(); // static method in API rbo.closeObj(); rbo=""; </cfscript>   objCount = 1, which is not right cause the object was instantiated several times.   rbo = createObect("Java","RedBackObject").init(); AND rbo = createObect("Java","RedBackObject") Both call the default contructor right Or do you have to explicitly say "init()"?   If the Class gets loaded only once, then i should get the correct object count.   Can anybody explain whats going on in CF Object Creation?   Thanks, Joe Eugene
