I have made a modification to farCry\fourq\tags\contentobjectgetmultiple.cfm so it still returns a structure for objects that dont exist - phantom link
code snippet (page attached)
if (not len(contenttype)) {
//AJM: no object - create dummy
stObj = structNew();
stTmp[i] = Duplicate(stObj);
stTmp[i].objectID = i;
stTmp[i].title = '<i style="color: purple" title="Ghost who walks
and never dies">Phantom detected</i>';
continue; // ie. go to next iteration
}
So now when looking at related links in an object, eg dmHTML, you will
see all the related links even if the object doesnt exist and can then
delete them.
This requires manual intervention. I think an admin function that
cleans out related links for the whole site would be a good idea. Does
this sould like a good idea to anyone?
Think out aloud, I think it would be a matter of detirmining all
object types, eg dmHTML, looking for the related links table, eg 2
dmHTML_aReletedIDs, then go looking for each object in that table in
all of the object type tables.
Would use
q4 = createObject("component", "farcry.fourq.fourq");
contenttype = q4.findType(objectid=i,dsn=attributes.dsn);
o = createObject("component", "#attributes.typename#");
rather than going to the dataabase directly.
Sould about right??
