Thanks guys you have confirmed what I thought : it is all over the place...the system is very poor and indeed needs a rewrite but thats not on the cards.
what needs to be done is to copy the session variables into the request scope to avoud locking them.... its a nightmare, it really is! -----Original Message----- From: Tom Smith [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 17 October 2002 10:48 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [ cf-dev ] Good/Bad? wont that just create a link to the session? surely duplicate() is much better? or have I gone mad... and readonly lockwill suffice. oh and the timeout is a little excessive, it shouldn't ever reach that level, and users shouldn't have to wait 45 seconds even if it needs to be that long... if it needs to be that long, I'd thing about rewriting the while site. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Robertson-Ravo, Neil (REC)" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, October 17, 2002 10:23 AM Subject: [ cf-dev ] Good/Bad? > I have just discovered this piece of code in a 3rd party CT.. its for > copying session vars into the request scope. > > <cfcase value="session2request"> > <cflock scope="SESSION" type="EXCLUSIVE" timeout="45"> > <cfloop collection="#session#" item="key"> > <cfset request[key] = session[key]> > </cfloop> > </cflock> > </cfcase> > > N > > -- > ** Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/dev%40lists.cfdeveloper.co.uk/ > > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For human help, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
