RE: [Reactor for CF] How should I save changes to iterated records?

[Ryan Blatz]

Dan,   The way I’ve always done it is like this   <cfset var newArray = arrayNew(1) /> <!--- create someRecord using reactor -à   <cfloop from=”1” to=”3” index=”i”><!--- loop through form data or query object or list….. whatever holds your data -à <cfset arrayAppend(newArray, someRecord.getMyIterator.Add()) />             <cfset newArray[i].setMy_name(“Ryan”) /> </cfloop> <cfset someRecord.Validate() /> <cfif someRecord.hasErrors()>             <!--- throw error -à <cfelse>             <cfset someRecord.Save() /> </cfif>     Reactor is smart enough to see that someRecord has children and will validate and save them.     Ryan Blatz Systems Developer/Engineer College of Education and Human Ecology - The Ohio State University From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dan Sorensen Sent: Thursday, October 19, 2006 2:34 PM To: reactor@reactorframework.com Subject: [Reactor for CF] How should I save changes to iterated records?   Given the example on this page: http://livedocs.reactorframework.com/Other_Types_of_Relationships.htm   How would one save changes to customer records that were retrieved via the getCustomerIterator()? The page says that “there is no setCustomerIterator() method”. Looking at the iterator.cfc, I see there are delete(), deleteAll() and add() methods. Do I work with those methods to remove/add/update iterated records? If so, do I save each iterated record separately or do the saves commit when I save the parent record?   I’m interested in any previous thread or bit of documentation that would clarify the best practice.   Dan   -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 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/ -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --
