RE: [Reactor For CF] "Selective Updates" (was Mapping Issue)

[Chris Terrebonne]

Doug,   I don’t think you sound “pissy”, I never said that the db acted any other way on a record, and I haven’t asked you to do anything.   Unfortunately, since the language itself doesn’t support NULLs, without adding “state” to the vars, your only choice was to assume 0 length strings were the same as NULL.  Whether that was successfully managed depends on whether the developer needs to differentiate between the two.  I don’t, so it works for me.   Thanks, Chris   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Doug Hughes Sent: Wednesday, February 22, 2006 2:34 PM To: reactor@doughughes.net Subject: RE: [Reactor For CF] "Selective Updates" (was Mapping Issue)   At the risk of sounding “pissy” I’ve got this to say:  A Record represents one row in a table.  It reads and writes as one.  I have no plans to implement selective updates.   Furthermore, the framework is designed to properly manage nulls.  In the case that it doesn’t it needs to be reported as a bug and it will be addressed eventually.    Doug     -- Reactor for ColdFusion Mailing List -- reactor@doughughes.net -- Archives at http://www.mail-archive.com/reactor%40doughughes.net/ -- Reactor for ColdFusion Mailing List -- reactor@doughughes.net -- Archives at http://www.mail-archive.com/reactor%40doughughes.net/
