Hi,
I am playing with an application that I have moved from Bluedragon.Net -
there I did a little check to get the name of the serving computer - and I
would like to move that to OpenBD somehow... I would prefer to have this set
server-wide at some place outside the application.
On BD.Net I had this set in the global config file - machine.config - that
covers the whole .Net environment, and I accessed this like:
<cfset Sys =
CreateObject("java","System.Configuration.ConfigurationSettings") />
<cfset thisMachine = Sys.get_AppSettings().Get("thismachine") />
An alternate way was to do:
<cfset thisMachine =
CreateObject("java","System.Environment").get_MachineName() />
How would one go about for this on OpenBD? Getting a OS environment variable
(e.g. %COMPUTERNAME% on Windows) would be ok to - one can always do this
with cfexecute...
I guess that the analogous thing to the .net-way would be to define it in a
CGI variable (in the web server) or in the appserver config (I am on tomcat
- e.g. web/server.xml)
Related - I tried setting a CGI/Request variable in Apache ("SetEnv") - but
that didn't seem to have propagated when I did a <cfdump> of the cgi
scope...
The server is Win2k3, and my dev machine is running Vista urtimate, with
Tomcat and Apache.
Cheers,
H.
