Re: [CFCDev] CFC catch "global" scope

[Peter J. Farrell]

<cfset var cfcatch = "" />  Yeah...var'ing cfcatch doesn't work.  Trust me I've tried.  Maybe Sean Corfield would be willing to answer this one. Because I'm stumped on this one.  I wonder if this would work: <cffunction name=... >     <cfset var localCatch = "" />     <cftry>       <!--- Some code that could produce an error         --->     <cfcatch type="database">         <!--- Open script block --->         <cfscript>         localCatch = Duplicate(cfcatch);         // Duplicate entry - Legacy(X/Open) and SQL Standard for cross DB compat.         if (localCatch.SQLState EQ "S1009" XOR localCatch.SQLState EQ 23000) {             // do other code             return localCatch;         } // END IF         // All other DB errors         else {             // DO OTHER ERROR HANDLING etc.         } // END ELSE         </cfscript>     </cfcatch>     </cftry> </cffunction> .Peter John Farrar wrote: Good question... but an error in a block of <cftry's> would trap out to nested <cfcatch> tags... so unless you can achieve two errors executing side by side... the chances are mild that you will have threading issues. You would have to have the error occur before the cfcatch variables are dumped... pretty milli fast... so it will take some fancy testing to get the answer to that question. MM could answer that better than any of us... they can look at the code.

I'd be interested to know if <cfset var cfcatch = "" > ...has any effect? One option may be to lock the code so that that portion of code is never executed by multiple threads, however depending on how often the code is run single threading it, that could potentially effect performance.

If I want to return the cfcatch "global" scope back from my CFC in a structure using duplicate(cfcatch). EX. <cfcatch type="database"> <!--- Open script block ---> <cfscript> // Duplicate entry - Legacy(X/Open) and SQL Standard for cross DB compat. ---> if (cfcatch.SQLState EQ "S1009" XOR cfcatch.SQLState EQ 23000) { // Erase Access_ID to "null" Access_ID = ""; return duplicate(cfcatch); } // END IF // All other DB errors else { // DO OTHER ERROR HANDLING etc. } // END ELSE </cfscript> </cfcatch> If this thread safe? a big TIA, .peter .maepub
