Macromedia / Allaire IDEs
Hi all, I have been away from the CF world for about a year and a half, but have a project which is bringing me back into full CF mode and I have to recommend an IDE. I have a question about what is going on with IDEs. I know that after Macromedia took over Allaire that there were something like 11 development environments, so it goes without saying that some must go. Is Dreamweaver MX the new tool of choice. Are JRun and CF Studio dead? What about all of the great things in Studio. Are they in Dreamweaver MX? Will DW have JSP tag hints (or whatever you call the little popups that complete functions, etc)? Any input appreciated. James __ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.

RE: Macromedia / Allaire IDEs
Is Dreamweaver MX the new tool of choice. Yes, according to Macromedia. Others may disagree. Are JRun and CF Studio dead? JRun Studio has been discontinued. CF Studio isn't exactly dead; when you buy Dreamweaver MX, you get Homesite+ bundled with it. Homesite+ is essentially CF Studio 5.1, although it isn't as customizable as previous versions of CF Studio because of the Adobe-Macromedia lawsuit fallout. What about all of the great things in Studio. Are they in Dreamweaver MX? Some are, some aren't. I suspect that more will be incorporated into Dreamweaver MX in future versions. The move to a single IDE makes sense in the long run, although it may not quite be there yet. Will DW have JSP tag hints (or whatever you call the little popups that complete functions, etc)? Yes, I think so - it supports CFML, JSP, and ASP/ASP.NET. But, you'll want to download the trial version and play around with it. Note that the trial version doesn't include Homesite+.

RE: Naming Convention choice
Paul, I use the underscore and mixed case for tags. The most important thing is to find a style that makes sense to you (and your team) and conform to it throughout your projects. I hate doing application mods where the coding is inconsistent. Of course with the case-insensitive nature of CF, it's largely a matter of readability. Also, I would point out that using the underscore may cause confusion in the new world of flash remoting - where underscores provide functionality in some cases. Finally, if you use the underscore for variable names in cf 4-5, watch out for automatically evaluated variable extensions in the form scope (_date, _number etc.). This can cause a ticklish error that is difficult to troubleshoot.

RE: Installation issues...
I'm trying to reinstall the preview version of MX and it is not installing the \1 directory under \cfusionmx\runtime\lib\wsconfig. It's a Win2000 server running IIS5. If anyone has any ideas, I'd be very grateful. I've gone through the install about 5 times now trying different things, but with no luck. First, I'm not sure exactly what you mean by the preview version. If you mean the one that came out before the final release, I'd recommend that you uninstall it, download the current trial version, and install that. The trial version will act as a fully functional Enterprise version for thirty days, after which it'll revert to a single-user Developer version unless you provide a serial number. Second, you can configure IIS connectivity after installing CF MX, if it doesn't work during the install. Run \CFusionMX\runtime\bin\wsconfig.exe, and it'll give you a handy little GUI for the configuration. Or, you can try the batch file \CFusionMX\bin\IIS_connector.bat. I'd recommend the first approach if you don't want all IIS virtual servers to use CF MX, for example if you want to use both CF 5 and CF MX with IIS.

RE: OT: Naming Convention choice
Really? Do you do this: cfset myvar = myval / I have seen a lot of code like this ... Especially br/ 's Studio does it automatically for you as well ... Well, that's a little different. If you want to write HTML that will comply with XHTML, you have to close every tag, even BR and HR tags which would never contain anything - that's just the nature of XML.

RE: Naming Convention choice
I would recommend lowercasing CF tags. This will make it consistent with XHTML. For more information, look here http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/#diffs I also (personally) think that all lowercase words are easier to read than words in all uppercase. While I agree that all lower case words are easier on the eyes that all upper case, I've really never understood people who advocate your first argument. CF is server-side code and does not get sent back to the browser (as I know you know). So you gain nothing by trying to follow the XHTML standards with your CF code. HTML tags I can see because it does have an effect on established public compliance standards. But to compare them is apples and oranges, in my opinion, since CF code is never returned to the browser. As a side note, I think you might run into the problem with custom tags by putting a trailing slash at the end of the call where the tag gets run twice. I could be wrong, but I thought I remember seeing that happen before. For example: cf_mytag attribute1=value1 / Personally, this whole discussion boils down to personal preference...period. As I said, I personally think that writing my tags in all lower case is easier on my eyes, so that's how I do it. I also have SQL rules where I capitalize keywords, lower case columns and tables, and put each column in my statement on its own row. But that's just my preference because it's easier to read my code and know what's going on. I'm not going to mandate that somebody write their CF code the same way. That's kind of ridiculous. There are a lot of other more important standards that should be implemented within a development team before I even *think* of casing. Just my $.02. Regards, Dave. __ Your ad could be here.

Nelson - Original Message - From: Dave Watts [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: CF-Talk [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, July 05, 2002 12:56 PM Subject: RE: Installation issues... I'm trying to reinstall the preview version of MX and it is not installing the \1 directory under \cfusionmx\runtime\lib\wsconfig. It's a Win2000 server running IIS5. If anyone has any ideas, I'd be very grateful. I've gone through the install about 5 times now trying different things, but with no luck. First, I'm not sure exactly what you mean by the preview version. If you mean the one that came out before the final release, I'd recommend that you uninstall it, download the current trial version, and install that. The trial version will act as a fully functional Enterprise version for thirty days, after which it'll revert to a single-user Developer version unless you provide a serial number. Second, you can configure IIS connectivity after installing CF MX, if it doesn't work during the install. Run \CFusionMX\runtime\bin\wsconfig.exe, and it'll give you a handy little GUI for the configuration. Or, you can try the batch file \CFusionMX\bin\IIS_connector.bat. I'd recommend the first approach if you don't want all IIS virtual servers to use CF MX, for example if you want to use both CF 5 and CF MX with IIS.

Yes, that functionality is fully described in the CF documentation, I'm sure, and covered in detail in the Advanced ColdFusion Development course from MM. You've got all sorts of variables available within the execution of a custom tag that you can use to affect what it does. Very often, when you write custom tags, you do want them to execute twice if they have an opening and a closing tag reference in the calling page, so you might write something like this: cfif ThisTag.ExecutionMode is start .. do the startup things ... cfelse .. do the ending things ... /cfif You might, within the startup code, want to ensure that there will be an end tag: cfif ThisTag.ExecutionMode is start cfif not ThisTag.HasEndTag cfthrow type=mycustomtagname.myerrortypename message=End tag required! errorcode=somenumberhere /cfif ... cfelse ...

RE: CF MX Service Pack Timeline?
Interesting. So there's no plans in the pipeline to address known issues such as poor COM performance and stuff like that? I don't know how much they can do about that anyway. To provide COM integration, they're using a third-party product called JIntegra, from Intrinsyc: http://www.intrinsyc.com/products/bridging/jintegra.asp So, I don't imagine that there's much MM can do other than provide JIntegra updates as they're made available. Of course, I could be wrong, but that's my guess. By the way, anyone interested in COM integration in CF MX might want to spend some time on the Intrinsyc site - there's a decent amount of information there.

By following that example, what am I gaining? being XHTML compliant? Who cares? What if I never do XHTML? insert other annoying questions here One thing that I could see being very useful in terms would be parsing through your code with another CF page. For example, if your code is XHTML compliant, you could probably run CFXML over it and load it as an XML document to be parsed. I wouldn't doubt there are exceptions to that rule because the XML parser would do something weird with: cfif ...condition... table /cfif /cfif ...condition... /table /cfif If you converted all your HTML tags to HTML format (i.e. table becomes lt;tablegt;) then you could probably parse your CF code. Once you have it in an XML document, you could look through all the CF documents in your web root to find all the different datasources you use in your cfquery. Granted, this is possible with searching each document with RegEx, but it's not nearly as simple. Also, another question.

RE: CF MX Service Pack Timeline?
Ben, how about bug: 45938? (select, drop, no recordset is returned) I think CFMX final release still contains this bug... I'm using cftrycfcatch as a temporary solution for this...

Just like we all hate people who type in caps all the time, reading code that's all uppercased make me feel like I have a hangover! The only thing we uppercase is our TABLE NAMES and FIELD NAMES, so they stick out when we're doing forms, which is almost all we ever do. sigh Though sometimes the SQL gets difficult to read, it's easier on the outputting side. It all really comes down to who prefers pink and who prefers blue though. I like brown. ;) Erika | From: Jeffry Houser [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] | | I would recommend lowercasing CF tags.
