Hi Jeff,
I have added images to custom types in the same way they are added to
the dmHtml object. Your custom type just needs to have an array property
to hold the associated images.
As for Brendan's bsPhoto custom type, you need to add a delete method to
remove the files from the server, something similar to:
<cffunction name="delete" access="public" hint="Specific delete method
for bsPhoto. Removes physical files from the server.">
<cfargument name="objectid" required="yes" type="UUID"
hint="Object ID of the object being deleted">
<!--- get object details --->
<cfset stObj = getData(arguments.objectid)>
<!--- delete normal image --->
<cfif len(stObj.Photo)>
<cftry>
<cffile action="delete" file="#stObj.Photo#">
<cfcatch type="any"></cfcatch>
</cftry>
</cfif>
<!--- delete thumbnail image --->
<cfif len(stObj.Thumbnail)>
<cftry>
<cffile action="delete"
file="#stObj.Thumbnail#">
<cfcatch type="any"></cfcatch>
</cftry>
</cfif>
<!--- delete --->
<cfset super.delete(stObj.objectId)>
</cffunction>
