RE: cfmx 6.1 (and mssql2k) server migration
for your db move, there is a few handy dandy sp's that will get you moved. sp_attach_db sp_detach_db 1. you stop the mssql server service 2. restart it 3. run the detach version (im not sure of the parameters right off of the top of my head, but they are simple) 4. move the physical file, the .mdb file to the new machine/directory 5. run the attach version, and it should create a new .ldb (log file) for the database, if not just move that too, and specify in your attach sp the location of both. look in the t-sql help included with mssql server 2000 for more help on this...but this is fairly well documented, so you shouldn't have too much trouble getting help. good luck! also, I think the cfmx server's settings are stored in an xml file...someone here will chime in! later. tony -Original Message- From: Katz, Dov B (IT) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, April 20, 2004 8:20 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: cfmx 6.1 (and mssql2k) server migration I will need to move my cfmx server to another machine in the coming weeks.

Need some advice on where to go to get started. Preferably quick-start stuff :-) There's very little that's CF-specific when developing WML for WAP devices.

I will need to move my cfmx server to another machine in the coming weeks. Does anyone have any tips, or URL's which might assist me in backing up the cfserver settings to replicate the setup on the new server? If you have CFMX Enterprise, you can create an archive file from within the CF Administrator. You can also just back up the CF configuration files, which are a bunch of XML files: \cfusionmx\lib\neo-*.xml I'm going to need to do the same with MSSQL2K, in case you also know how to do that. If you can shut off the original SQL Server, the easiest way to do this is to just copy the .mdf and .ldf files for your specific databases and use sp_attach_db to attach them to the new server. If the new server will be exactly identical to the old one, you may be able to do the same thing with the master database as well, which will preserve database server configuration stuff, but that can be a bit dicey. Alternatively, you can use the backup and restore functionality to back up individual databases and restore them to the new server.

yeah, but you want to detach, then attach, since it will keep things concurrent... I haven't needed to detach first if I just shut down the first SQL Server.

If users start selling the software that MM gives us to promote the groups, we seriously run the risk of being cut off.They (our sponsors at MM) have to fight to get us the software as it is.

RE: Is it a bug or not a bug?
This is not a bug, it's just part of using a loosely typed language. Non-zero values are true, and zero is false.A short-circuited boolean evaluation returns the value of the last _expression_ that is evaluated. Note, that whether the first test returns 'true' or '20', both are true values, so it won't affect anything.You can use 20 any place you use true and it will behave the same way.

#(true and 4*5)# returns 20. #(false and 4*5)# returns false. #(4*5 and false)# returns false. #(4*5 and true)# returns true. Is it a bug or it is using some sort of _expression_ evaluation that I am not aware of. CF uses short-circuit boolean evaluation. So it'll either stop the moment it hits a false condition or it'll go to completion. Further, any non-zero value evaluates to true, so 4*5 (20) will always evaluate to true. So you are saying the answer is true??? Is that what you are saying?The answer is 20. No, I'm saying that because of the way short-circuit boolean evaluation works, it'll return the last value evaluated in the _expression_. So, for the first example, since 4*5 is the last _expression_, and 20 is the same as true (a non-zero value), it returns 20. If you want to be explicit about what gets returned, then you could put yesNoFormat() around the _expression_: #yesNoFormat((true and 4*5))# The above returns Yes. Regards, Dave.

Re: Is it a bug or not a bug?
This is not a bug, it's just part of using a loosely typed language. Well... your right that it is part of using a loosely typed language, this implies that the language has to convert automatcally variables and expressions in order to perform a statement, but when the laguage converts to the wrong type, IT IS definitely a bug, loosely type or not. in true and (4*5), CF should have converted (4*5) to true and not true to 1, since the operator is boolean. IMHO this comes from the fact that logical expressions are evaluated only until the final result is known. The rest of the problem comes from the propery of CF to interpret and guess the type of expressions and variables. In (false and (4*5)), the result false is known as soon as AND is encountered, so the rest of the _expression_ is not evaluated. At this time, CF is considering a boolean constant, and it returns a boolean value. In the case of (true and (4*5)), CF has to evaluate (4*5), but then, since 4*5 is a numerical operation, it converts true to numeric instead of the reverse. Just my 2 ¢ explanation, and it is definitely a bug. -- ___ See some cool custom tags here: http://www.contentbox.com/claude/customtags/tagstore.cfm Please send any spam to this address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thanks.

RE: Is it a bug or not a bug?
I get two true values followed by two false values for both blocks.The
specific true and false values are varied, but they are still equivalent.
This block is as well:
cfoutput
#1 and 100#br /
#false or 10#br /
#false or 0#br /
#0 and false#br /
/cfoutput
If you want a boolean value returned, you can use yesNoForamt(), though that
will return 'yes' or 'no'.If you really want true or false returned, use
this UDF:
cfscript
function booleanFormat(expr) {
if (expr)
return true;
return false;
}
/cfscript
Using that UDF, here's a final block that is equivalent to the first three,
but also yields the correct string representations of the values:
cfoutput
#booleanFormat(1 and 100)#br /
#booleanFormat(false or 10)#br /
#booleanFormat(false or 0)#br /
#booleanFormat(0 and false)#br /
/cfoutput

You are anding a boolean and an integer, and getting an integer out. This IS the bug, a loosely interpretor should always convert operands to fit the operator, not the contrary. If you are anding a boolean and an integer, the and is a boolean operator, the boolean is ok, the integer is the alien, thus the integer should be converted.

Re: Is it a bug or not a bug?
I disagree.Whether I would consider it a bug or not depends on when things are expected get cast.Typically, in a loosely-typed language, you cast as late as possible, and avoid it whenever you can. In this case, the language is avoiding implicit casting, which is (IMHO) a good thing.Especially since the cast from an integer to a boolean is a cast down. --Ben Doom Samuel R.

It's just no one else's bizness what you do with it.

Re: Is it a bug or not a bug?
If you want a boolean value returned, you can use yesNoForamt() Well, the purpose of the yesNo() function is to convert a boolean value to a text representation, not to convert an integer which should have been a bolean in the first place. A _expression_ with two operands and one boolean operator should always return a boolean value, not an integer. -- ___ See some cool custom tags here: http://www.contentbox.com/claude/customtags/tagstore.cfm Please send any spam to this address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thanks.

Re: Is it a bug or not a bug?
It looks like the operator decides the type for the result for everything except the AND operator. Even OR works as you say it should. #1 + true# 2 #true + 1# 2 #1 and true#true #true and 1#1 #true or 1#true #true + true#2 #true + false#1 #true a#truea #a true#atrue #true and a# a #a and true#(error - cannot convert a to boolean) Try #1 or true# That should return 1, not true. Someone pointed out that the value returned is the last value evaluated. In (true or 1) that is true, since it's shortcircuited. --Ben Doom [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]

Re: Is it a bug or not a bug?
[EMAIL PROTECTED] 04/20/04 03:55PM snip Interesting. I would have guessed that both sets would have returned the same exact results. That, to me, is indeed a bug. Dave, Could you explain why you are sure this is a bug, and not just an unexpected casting issue? Actually, it's not. I didn't let it sink in that he was outputting the word true as opposed to outputting the result of the evaluation in the first test case. That's where I thought I was seeing the difference (outputting true vs. 20). Thanks for pointing that out. Regards, Dave.

Re: Is it a bug or not a bug?
This is mentioned on page 14 of Ben Forta's certified Macromedia ColdFusion MX Developer Study Guide. He said: _expression_ may be used with CFML tags as well as in output, so this is valid: cfset result = var2-var1 as is cfoutput#var2-var1#/cfoutput This is not the intersting part of CFMX.This is: You can embed CFML comments in begin tags (not just tag bodies), functions calls, and variable text in pound signs. ColdFusion ignores the text in comments such as the following: cfset MyVar = var1 !--- var2 --- cfoutput#Dateformat(now() !---, , ---)#/cfoutput Yep, this is at http://livedocs.macromedia.com/coldfusion/6/Developing_ColdFusion_MX_Applications_with_CFML/Elements13.htm I find this so bizarre. Johnny I thought I had seen someone on this list, when MX came out, warning everyone to not use it due to it broke a convention (or something like that) and it may not be supported in the future versions due to MM did not officially acknowledge it as a feature.So thus I tried to not use it, but I did find it real handy at times. I guess I should read MM docs and not believe everything I read on this list. :-) Does this method of mathematical calculations have an official name?

why would you use 5*4 in an _expression_?

RE: CFMX for sale
I think that would be even worse since it's almost like the UG is selling what it received from MM for free as a promotional item, just not directly. If you want to sell it, great, go sell it on ebay where nobody knows where you got it and MM isn't paying as much attention (or are they?).I agree with earlier posters that discussion of selling items won at UG meetings (which may not even be the case here) very likely will have a negative impact on the UG contact's ability to get free stuff for them to give away as promos.

Re: Is it a bug or not a bug?
you cast as late as possible Exact, but whenever you cast, you cast to the type inplied by the operator, or the type expected by a function in a parameter. You NEVER cast the operator to fit one of the operands, which apparently was done here. -- ___ See some cool custom tags here: http://www.contentbox.com/claude/customtags/tagstore.cfm Please send any spam to this address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thanks.

OT: Fireworks MX/data-driven graphics
I inherited a project today in which someone that used to work here created a batch of images using the Fireworks MX data driven graphics wizard and some xml generated using cold fusion. I was wondering if anyone knew if it was at all possible to call the functionality of that wizard via command line or some other scripting method?I would like to automate the process he had in place.I am figuring the answer is no but figured it could not hurt to ask.

Re: Is it a bug or not a bug?
Try #1 or true# That should return 1, not true. No, the operator is boolean, it then should return true. Someone pointed out that the value returned is the last value evaluated. In (true or 1) that is true, since it's shortcircuited. Right, the evaluation of true OR true is shortcircuited, but AFTER the operator has been checked. The operator is boolean, then the last value evaluated must be converted to a boolean before it is returned. -- ___ See some cool custom tags here: http://www.contentbox.com/claude/customtags/tagstore.cfm Please send any spam to this address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thanks.
