Well, I haven't seen it much, but then again, I don't have one, so perhaps I just subconsciously passed them over. :) IMHO, asking for a degree for a programmer is not worth anything. If you are 30 or older, what they were teaching in school when you were 20 isn't what is in use now. I mean, When was the last time you programed an app in fortran? I mean, the only thing your degree shows at that point is that you had rich parents who paid for your college, you worked your way through college (and therefore, probably scraped by) or you took out a student loan (and are probably now in debt from it). I realize a college degree is important in some fields. Doctors, Lawyers, Scientists, etc. Not a fast changing field like computer programing. that's silly. A college degree contains much more than what you are narrowly shoe-boxing it to be. For one, you learn several other subjects. These give you opportunities to view how others solve problems in various other corners of life social, technical, artistic, etc. Further more these studies teach you the the basic vocabulary these areas use to communicate. Now to address the specific computer classes you might take, yes the fast changing world of computers yields new languages, but that's just syntax. What you really learn, or should be learning, is semantics, eh? It doesn't matter if its Fortran or C, a loop is a loop and that is not changing. Speaking of loops, do you commonly use O(n^2) approaches? AKA 'Big OH' notation, this is the kind of topic covered in CS programs that exposes you to the performance of algorithms, independent of language of course. That said, you can certainly learn all these things OTJ or as a hobby, but I wouldn't just wave aside this knowledge. Heck, a few world famous Mathematicians were actually hobbyists, Fermat for example.

Actually, if I may Jeff, I will reword your comment to be 'Going to college without some focus' is a waste. You can figure out A focus once there. Thus I should have opened with I'd say go to gain A focus. I have only one regret in life myself, that's dropping out of college only to return later because I lacked this focus, or discipline if you will. When I returned as one of those older students, I was CONSIDERABLY more focused, yet it still took 2 FT school years to get A focus. In fact, try grad school, things are different there for sure. This thought brings me back to Philip's comments. What about Comp Sci professors? Should we just dismantle that field since all you need to do is work in a 'real-life' job to learn what you need? A majority of them got their PhDs over 10 years ago, so not much for them to know?

I've had this sometimes work and sometimes not work. It's almost like
the

back
and throws out the data.
Using a 2nd query to get the identity is not reliable without CFLOCKing
the

One thing I wish CFQUERY could do is return multiple recordsets and

parameters back. In PHP you can do this.
Just curious, not
implying anything wrong with it one bit, but what are your reasonings
for
using almost all SPs for your DB work?
Because it's faster in heavy-load environments and it provides a central
clearing house for db code that the dbas can (presumably) analyze and
improve. It also lets you restrict direct access to tables, just
granting
EXEC permissions on a proc by proc basis after proper review.

there is no need at all to lock anything. Once you get the nextval from the sequence, it is yours to keep. Another thread, request, user what have you will get a differnt value guarnteed.

Re: Where are all the mid-level CF developers?
ditto from me. I have been doing CF for over 5 years now in my company and every team I have been on has absolutely no code review, code standards, versioning, etc. I've struggled constantly to get them employedwait until I'm in charge! LOL! I recently had to 'mentor' two noobs in CF. Neither of them knows what an object is let alone a CFC or getters/setters. And yes, they require actual training to scribble down 'SELECT * FROM table' it seems. One thing I have noticed is that since CF is considered a RAD tool, we tend to get projects that are short-lived, small, mediocre complexity, etc. And the business, or customers, want results yesterday. All these combine into fast written ugly code. In my company the big enterprise type projects go to the J2EE world. DK On 4/30/05, Adam Haskell [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Nicely put; I agree.

Code reivews are sparse if at all. I was just helping a co-worker with a problem the other day and noticed while he was using cfqueryparam in Where clause he was not in the INSERT statementwhy? no one ever told him to use them there and the examples he saw were for select statements.

They don't care how elegant the codebase is or whether it's a Rube Golberg device as long as it works. So nobody forces them to change. They spin their wheels for a couple years until they get layed off or something and they walk into a job interview with 2-3 years of CF listed on their resume and they are still chock full of bad coding habits!! The CF culture brings in people from non-engineering backgrounds, ex Flash animators, designers who are doing double-duty. People who cracked open the Forta book and learned enough to get by on the job and don't necessarily have the drive to improve their code because their passions really lie elsewhere. And that's how this culture evolved. That's why CF coders are treated like 2nd class citizens. ~| Logware (www.logware.us): a new and convenient web-based time tracking application.

Ben Forta mentioned (at Powered by Detroit) that one of the biggest recruiting firms in the US doesn't put CF in the job description when looking for CF Developers. They look for Java Developers.

The reasoning for this is similar to what Simon said below. CF Developer's write bad code. I think the reason for this is that many CF Developers are not programmers by trade. They do what it takes to get the job done, without thought to maintenance, re-use, structure, etc.. I'm working on one app now, which has (for example)... templates with ~2,500 lines of code, only one line of documentation (which says begin and offers no more explanation) and very long lines (for example, an if statement with 5 else conditions written out on a single line ). Formatted w/ an eye for readability I'm sure the template would double in size. That and 50+ queries in one CF page, some of which are repeated. Worst code I have ever seen bar none.

That's not to say that there aren't Java developers who write poor code, but Java pretty much forces you to use good coding techniques moreso than CF. CF makes it easy to write bad code. That's not a bad thing, unless people choose to take the easy route and write bad code (whch many do). There's no reason why a CF developer that's building complex enterprise applications shouldn't be earning as much as a java developer building complex enterprise applications, provided they're both competent. To be honest, most Java developers are more competent with specific parts of java rather than all of java - there are too many APIs and core classes to master all of them. An expert CF Developer is really worth more than an expert java developer in my opinion because they have complete mastery of their environment as opposed to mastery of part and competence in the rest.
