This will absolutely blow your socks off and show you how cool / powerful
Farcry FormTools are.
I just added the following attributes
ftType="list" ftListData="getIncludeList" ftListDataTypename="dmInclude"
ftType says we want a drop down list
ftListDataTypename is the name of the component that will return the data
ftListData is the function (which returns a list, and already exists :-)
So the Rule now looks like this
<cfcomponent displayname="Include: render"
extends="farcry.core.packages.rules.rules" hint="disply Include">
<cfproperty ftseq="1" ftFieldset="General" name="include" type="nstring"
hint="include file" ftLabel="Include" default="_keepuptodate.cfm"
ftType="list" ftListData="getIncludeList" ftListDataTypename="dmInclude" />
</cfcomponent>
As a side note, in the version of Farcry on this server, there is an issue
with casing in mySQL, so I made the file name all lower case.
