Assuming categories have not changed from v3 to v4 you can use what’s built
in.  Use the category tree and functions for it
(application.factory.oCategory) and you can manage everything that way.

Subject: [farcry-dev] Categories & Sub categories

 

Hello,

I am building a simple list of products which have categories which can have
subcategories etc...

How do i go about using the one category table to manage sub categories.

I have tried putting a property in the cfc that points back to itself as per
below. It creates the table when i click deploy but still reports a
conflict. if i try and deploy again, it just gives me a dump of the array. 

<cfcomponent name="dmCategory" displayname="Category"
extends="farcry.core.packages.types.types" hint="Custom Type for Category
content" bUseInTree="false" bObjectBroker="true"
objectBrokerMaxObjects="1000"> 

<!--- property definitions --->
<cfproperty        ftSeq="1"
                ftFieldSet="Category Details"
                name="CategoryName"
                type="string" 
                required="true"
                hint="Name of a Category"
                ftLabel="Category Name"
                ftType="string"
                ftValidation="required" /> 
                
<cfproperty        ftSeq="2"
                ftFieldSet="Category Details"
                name="CategoryDesc"
                type="string"
                required="false" 
                hint="Description of a Category"
                ftLabel="Category Description"
                ftType="string" />
                
<cfproperty        ftSeq="3" 
                ftFieldSet="Category Details"
                name="ParentCategory"
                type="array"
                required="false"
                hint="Parent Category" 
                ftLabel="Parent Category"
                ftType="array"
                ftJoin="dmCategory" />

</cfcomponent>
