cflocation url=#CGI.SCRIPT_NAME#

2007-03-21 Thread Pete
Hi there

I have a login page for an application and I am trying to find out what page
a  person goes to once they have successfully logged in.

There is a line in the code:

cflocation url=#CGI.SCRIPT_NAME#

But I cant see anywhere in the code what page the user should go to.

Does anyone have any ideas where I could look - how does #CGI.SCRIPT_NAME#
work so as to send a user to a particular page.

Thanks in advance.

 Not sure what you mean?

 I'm on Windows 2003, running CF7 and IIS

CF has a page not found handler, I expect IIS has one too.

CGI.SCRIPT_NAME is the URL of the currently running script without the
domain part. This means the page is redirecting back to itself.

Re: CSS Firefox vs. IE Question...

2007-03-21 Thread Mark Henderson
Dana Kowalski wrote:
 Sandra,
  look at the actual code on the page. It references ID's multiple times.

Yeah the main offender seems to be the id categories.
e.g. div id=categories class=widget_style1

As already mentioned, just make it a class, but first things first.
http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.buickpartspage.com%2F

Some of those errors are due to the two opening head tags, and it is 
precisely this that needs sorted out if you ever want consistent 
cross-browser rendering.

Don't use javascript to serve different style sheets. Again, as Sandra 
mentioned, you can use conditional comments to give IE what it needs. So 
the following...

script language=JavaScript type=text/javascript!--
if  ((navigator.appName == Microsoft Internet Explorer)  
(navigator.userAgent.indexOf (Opera) == -1))  {
document.write ('link href=style_ie.css rel=stylesheet 
type=text/css media=screen /');
};
//--/script

should be changed to

!--[if IE]
link href=style_ie.css rel=stylesheet type=text/css media=screen /
![endif]--

Conditional comments were designed for exactly this sort of thing, so 
use them!

Next, don't use underscores in class and ID names.
http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Underscores_in_class_and_ID_Names

I'm with Sandra on the recommendation of a strict doctype, whether that 
be html 4 or xhtml 1. If you're not experienced with CSS layouts, it's 
better to avoid the possibility of Mozilla's almost standards mode 
which will likely just create confusion.

Lastly, as a slightly picky side note, try and use semantic names for 
your classes and IDs.
http://www.w3.org/QA/Tips/goodclassnames

Example; h2 class=h2 could be changed to something like h2 
class=cathead and the wrapper for this removed.

BTW, despite all the errors, the page actually displays quite well in 
IE6 on Win2k and IE7 on XP Pro, and looks good visually (although the 
fonts are a little tiny and hard to read, at least for my blind eyes).

It may be more competitive for you to buy the broadband in on a reseller
account, it'll give you a much more competitive pricing structure. Most
major ISP's will offer this kind of reseller account, may be worth speaking

RE: Model-Glue Form Validation

2007-03-21 Thread Robert Rawlins - Think Blue
Morning Tom,

Thanks for the in-depth explanation on this stuff.

The bean method sounds quite intriguing and it's not one I had considered
before you mentioned it. Whilst this first form is nothing special, just a
basic contact form which allows the user to send us a sales enquiry, I'd
rather go for a method that I can expand on and use down the line, I'm not
one for cheating at this kind of thing :-D

Before you got back to me yesterday I played around with a stack of
different ideas, and at the moment my form process works something like
this.

I have 2 events, one to display the form, then another which processes the
form and posts the user to a 'thank you' view. 

Now, in my controller for processing the form I have function called
'sendMail', and in here I have been doing validation on the fields, building
a structure of the error messages.

After validation, if the structCount() for errors is 0, then I post the
fields off in a mail using a mailer component, but if the structCount() is
GTE 1 then I place the errors into the ViewState, and I add a result like
ARGUMENTS.Event.addResult(ValidationError);

In my model-glue XML it is set to pass the user back to the form if the
result 'validationerror' is found. Then in the view I simply output the
error structure from the viewstate.

Now, whilst this works for me, I'm always looking to adopt the 'best
practice' type methods, so I'm keen to learn a little more about how exactly
I could implement your bean method.

I'd love to hear more,

Thanks Tom,

Rob

Subject: Re: Model-Glue Form Validation

I'd say the overall answer is the standby: It depends.

There's nothing wrong with using the CFC you mentioned, if it still suits
your needs.

One of the frequently used features of Model-Glue (or Mach-II, for that
matter) is the ability to automagically populate a bean from a form
submission. This could be a bean you build yourself; or it could be
something like a Record object created by a framework like Reactor or
Transfer.

The bean encapsulates the form submission -- and most likely represents a
record headed for your database. You could then call methods in your
validation CFC and pass in getters from the bean, like
isEmail(bean.getEmail).
If the validations pass, you then use the bean to do whatever's next -- like
update the database.

Record objects created by the ORM frameworks often have their own validation
methods, which can be extended.

As far as when/where you do your validation -- strictly it should probably
be done within the model, in a business object of some kind. Your validation
rules may be more than just validating an e-mail address. They might involve
comparisons of two values from the form submission, or checking against some
other value. So they're really business rules.

On the other hand -- there's no big reason to complicate things either. If
all you're doing is basic stuff like validating e-mail addresses, whether or
not a value is numeric, and things like that, I don't think anyone will
shoot you for doing it within the controller.

As far as error handling goes, a typical scenario would be to create a
message based on the validation failure, stuff it into the event --
event.setValue(errorMessage), then create a Result which would announce
the event calling the form page again.

-- 
Thanks,

Tom

cgi.script_name is the 'current' page so cflocation

RE: including functions

2007-03-21 Thread Leitch, Oblio
Well, this is good to know.  However, I'm still running into trouble.
Now that I've removed the functions to a subdirectory, all the code
inside has to be modified to look for dependencies relatively.  For
example in my CFC, I instantiate another component in a subdirectory
thus: component=subdir.component.  However, when I remove the function
to the same directory, I have to remove the subdir. from the component
location.  In other words, even though the parent.cfc includes
subdir/function.cfm, the function.cfm executes in context of 'subdir/',
not '../'.

I can't decide whether this is good or bad.  Certainly not expected.

To solve this, just include the CFFunction tag in the INCLUDE file
itself. This will still properly define the function within the parent
CFC. And, since you have to have CFFunction tag to have VAR and what
not, this will work fine.

The THIS and VARIABLES scope will act just like you want them to.

Re: Site shutdown and avoiding CF 404 errors?

2007-03-21 Thread Dean Lawrence
Jake,

In IIS, bring up the properties for the site you are talking about. Go
to the Home Directory tab and click on the Configuration button.
Select the .cfm file extention and click the edit button. In the
dialog box that open up, make sure that there is a check in the Check
that file exists checkbox. Repeat this for any other CF extention
(.cfml, .cfc). Close all the open dialog boxes.

By doing this, IIS will verify that the file exists on the site before
passing the request off to CF. Since the file does not exist, IIS uses
it's built in 404 handler and you will no longer receive CF errors.

Hope this helps,

Dean

RE: including functions

2007-03-21 Thread Ben Nadel
Oblio,

As you have found out, CFC creation paths are relative to the CALLING
template, not the compiled-post-include-rendering-and-all-that-jazz
object. Therefore, the CFC path is relative the included template, not
the CFC. One option to over come this is to have a CreateCFC() method in
an included template that is in a higher directory:

cfinclude template=../../_fn_CreateCFC.cfm /

Then, in each of your other include functions, you can assume that
THIS.CreateCFC() is a valid method of the current component. Then,
instead of calling CreateObject() with your path, call THIS.CreateCFC(
component_name ) and you can handle all of the path stuff in the
CreateCFC() method which will be higher than the current directory.

Make sense? 

Here is a blog entry on the proof of concept (but not using CFCs
exactly):

Subject: RE: including functions

Well, this is good to know.  However, I'm still running into trouble.
Now that I've removed the functions to a subdirectory, all the code
inside has to be modified to look for dependencies relatively.  For
example in my CFC, I instantiate another component in a subdirectory
thus: component=subdir.component.  However, when I remove the function
to the same directory, I have to remove the subdir. from the component
location.  In other words, even though the parent.cfc includes
subdir/function.cfm, the function.cfm executes in context of 'subdir/',
not '../'.

I can't decide whether this is good or bad.  Certainly not expected.

 Sandra,
  look at the actual code on the page. It references ID's multiple 
 times.

Yeah the main offender seems to be the id categories.
e.g. div id=categories class=widget_style1

As already mentioned, just make it a class, but first things first.
http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.buickpartspage.
com%2F

Some of those errors are due to the two opening head tags, and it is 
precisely this that needs sorted out if you ever want consistent 
cross-browser rendering.

Don't use javascript to serve different style sheets. Again, as Sandra 
mentioned, you can use conditional comments to give IE what it needs. So 
the following...

script language=JavaScript type=text/javascript!--
if  ((navigator.appName == Microsoft Internet Explorer)  
(navigator.userAgent.indexOf (Opera) == -1))  {
document.write ('link href=style_ie.css rel=stylesheet 
type=text/css media=screen /');
};
//--/script

.should be changed to

!--[if IE]
link href=style_ie.css rel=stylesheet type=text/css media=screen /
![endif]--

Conditional comments were designed for exactly this sort of thing, so 
use them!

Next, don't use underscores in class and ID names.
http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Underscores_in_class_and_ID_Names

I'm with Sandra on the recommendation of a strict doctype, whether that 
be html 4 or xhtml 1. If you're not experienced with CSS layouts, it's 
better to avoid the possibility of Mozilla's almost standards mode 
which will likely just create confusion.

Lastly, as a slightly picky side note, try and use semantic names for 
your classes and IDs.
http://www.w3.org/QA/Tips/goodclassnames

Example; h2 class=h2 could be changed to something like h2 
class=cathead and the wrapper for this removed.

BTW, despite all the errors, the page actually displays quite well in 
IE6 on Win2k and IE7 on XP Pro, and looks good visually (although the 
fonts are a little tiny and hard to read, at least for my blind eyes).

Re: No ColdFusion Here

2007-03-21 Thread Rick Root
I do think there would be a benefit to Adobe to offering a version of
Coldfusion tailored to the budget shared hosting market...  something with
limitations on advanced functionality, but not as broken as the old
Express version was.. you know.. something WITH advanced security options,
but without things like event gateways, cfreport, etc

There are other reasons why nobody offers coldfusion in their budget
packages too - it's not just the price of Coldfusion itself.

Most large hosting companies put huge amounts of sites on their servers...
You can throw a thousand php sites on a single server... you can't do that
with coldfusion.  Shared coldfusion hosting is a lot tougher to manage for
all variety of reasons, and it takes a LOT more memory and CPU to run a
servlet engine like Coldfusion/Jrun than it does to just have a couple of
DLLs serving up php and ASP pages.

Re: Parsing Blogger Feeds

2007-03-21 Thread Rob Wilkerson
If you're using PHP5, you can use SimpleXML to parse your feed.
There's a decent explanation at
http://blog.stuartherbert.com/php/2007/01/07/using-simplexml-to-parse-rss-feeds/.
 If you're still looking to move to CF, the look at Ray Camden's
RSS.cfc.  I don't have a URI, but check riaforge.com or his blog at
ray.camdenfamily.com.

For your error, though, I just blogged one reason for that (and a
solution) at 
http://musetracks.instantspot.com/blog/index.cfm/2007/3/18/Consuming-an-RSS-Feed-with-ColdFusion.
 Specifically, look at Issue II.

Hope this helps.

Re: Need More SQL help - DRIVING ME NUTS!

2007-03-21 Thread Jim Wright
Three things I noted...
1. There are a lot of duplicated columns in the result list...I removed 
those to make it easier to read and debug
2. It looks to me like tblevalanswerresults needs to be joined to both 
tblquestions and tblanswers...see below
3. When you join on tblEvaluations like you did previously, and then 
filter with a WHERE clause, you may get instances where you won't return 
some of the questions in a set because none were answered for that 
instructor.  I moved the filtering on instructor up into the join.

If this doesn't work, just do a dump of each table and post that 
somewhere.  It will be easier to debug with the whole picture.

SELECT
Q.questionID,Q.questionsetID,Q.question,ARS.answersetname,A.answerID,A.answername,A.answervalue,
 
COUNT(EAR.answerID) AS numAnswers
FROM   tblquestions Q
INNER JOIN   tblanswersets ARS USING (answerSetID)
INNER JOIN   tblanswers A USING (answerSetID)
LEFT JOIN  (tblevalanswerresults EAR
INNER JOIN tblEvaluations E
ON E.evalID = EAR.evalID AND E.InstructorID = '#SESSION.CollegeID#')

Form Field Names in Upper Case?

2007-03-21 Thread Jeff Chastain
Back in the CF 5 days, when you submitted a form, ColdFusion would convert the 
form field names to all upper case.  In CF MX, this was supposed to be fixed 
such that the original case would be maintained.  I am running CF MX7 and am 
running into this issue again.  If I run the following example, the text field 
name starts as 'testFieldName', but dumping the form.fieldnames results in 
'TESTFIELDNAME'.  Why?



html
head/head

body

cfif isDefined('form')
cfdump var=#form# /
/cfif

form action=formTest.cfm method=POST
input type=text name=testFieldName value= /
input type=submit
/form

/body
/html



I am returning these field names to the user interface when then uses them for 
dom manipulation and Javascript is throwing a fit because the two field names 
don't match.

Any ideas?

Thanks

WSDL Confusion

I'm new to this whole consuming web services thing, so please bear with me. 
I'm using cfinvoke to call a web service. I'm passing a username, password, and

management web service, so there's a getPropertyDesc method that, when I call 
it, I set the return variable to PropertyDesc and do a cfdump of 
#PropertyDesc# and I get a dump I've never really seen. It's red, and it's an 
object dump. I'm not sure I'm getting back what I should be getting back. So 
I don't know if it's a problem with my code, or what. I'm actually expecting 
data to be returned, but I'm not seeing it in my dump.

Is there any more information I can provide? Does my problem sound familiar? 
I'm really learning about all this, so it's entirely possible I'm going about 
this all wrong, so any help is appreciated.

Re: CFLDAP uploading Image (binary)

2007-03-21 Thread Vince Collins (NHJobs.com)
Thanks Oblio,

I have tried toBinary() which I'm assuming does the same thing but maybe 
I'm wrong.

I have had limited success with toBase64() which is what LDAP is 
supposedly encoding it as.  It allows me to update the field but when 
browsing the attributes, it stores it as a text attribute and not a 
binary like all the other photos are stored for other profiles.  When 
displaying it it just shows a broken image.

I've come across some non-ColdFusion articles that talk about a 
;binary switch needing to be passed to LDAP but so far I have not been 
able find a way to do this with CFLDAP.

I see lots of online examples of how to display an image using CFLDAP 
which is nice.  It's just hard to believe that no one else has had to 
*update* an image using CFLDAP.

Anyone have any other ideas?

 Subject: CFLDAP uploading Image (binary)

 I've hit a wall and have a question.

 I have been able to write a form that allows the updating of all text 
 fields within the LDAP directory using cfldap.  What I need now is to 
 provide the ability to upload an image and store that within LDAP.

 Here is where it breaks.
   !--- upload file ---
   cffile action=upload filefield=seljpegPhoto 
 destination=#root#\update\upload nameconflict=makeunique
   !--- read file as binary ---
   cffile action=READBINARY 
 file=#root#\update\upload\#file.serverfile#
 variable=BinaryImageContent
   !--- Replace with new image ---
   cfldap action=modify
DN=#qry_get_one_emp.distinguishedName#
attributes=jpegPhoto=#BinaryImageContent#
modifytype=replace
server=#LDAPServer#
username=#LDAPUsername#
password=#LDAPPassword#

 The resulting error:  ByteArray objects cannot be converted to
 strings.

 If I change the above to
   attributes=jpegPhoto=#ToBinary(BinaryImageContent)#
 it is redundant and causes the same error.

 Is there some switch I am missing or something else I need to do in 
 order to let CFLDAP know this is binary and to allow the update?  I have

 found NO information on how to upload a binary object into LDAP using 
 CFLDAP.

 Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Actually that is probably just what you are supposed to get back.  Look
through the output of your object dump.  You will see various methods
you can access on it.  Use these methods to access the data inside the
object.

Something like:
cfdump var=#PropertyDesc.toString()#

You may need to go through a few layers of this, depending on how
complex the returned object is.

I've got a good grasp of the other terns like Factory, Bean, DAO, Gateway.
I'm also curious as to what a TO class is, I've never written one, is that
even a class? Or a bean? Are classes and beans the same thing? :-D

 

I'd also be keen to learn about any other types of elements I'm likely to
stumble across, I just made the mistake of reading some documentation on AOP
:-o now my brain really is fried ;-)

 

I know that OOP development within CF isn't particularly well documented, in
as much that I can't go and buy a book from Amazon on the local WHSmith, but
I'd be interested to take any recommendations on more general perhaps java
based OOP, MVC and AOP related books that would be worth me reading.

 

Thanks guys,

 

Rob

 You're right, as long as a person can install into their My Documents

 anything, not just Eclipse.  If that is going to stop them from
 allowing Eclipse, then they can't allow ANYTHING, because you can

Error invoking CFC for gateway myGateway: String index out of range: -1

 
Anyone have any experience with this error?
 
The cfc is essentially empty at this point. It's an initiator gateway
and all I have (after removing things trying to debug) is just an
onIncomingMessage() function that doesn't do anything.
 
I've restarted the gateway after each code change, but the error stays
the same.
 
Ideas?

Subject: CFCHART not displayed in IE with CFMX 7.0.2 (but works in Firefox)

Hello,

I'm having a problem getting cfchart working with Coldfusion MX 7.0.2 on an 
Apache 1.3 Windows server.  All charts display PERFECTLY in Firefox, however in 
Internet Explorer (v6 and above) the charts are not displayed.  These charts 
all worked fine in IE before I made the switch to 7.0.2 so I know that it has 
something to do with the new version.

I researched the internet for possible solutions and found others who have been 
experiencing this same problem, but none of the suggested solutions have helped 
me.

Here is what I know so far:
-My charts (.swf's) are created and stored properly in [cfroot]\charting\cache
-When a call to my cfchart is made, an HTTP request is made for two things:
--/CFIDE/scripts/CF_RunActiveContent.js (the file is found)
--/CFIDE/GraphData.cfm (this file doesn't exist to my knowledge)
-I have a coldfusion mapping for /CFIDE which points to C:\Apache\htdocs\CFIDE\
-I have an Apache alias created for /CFIDE which also points to 
C:\Apache\htdocs\CFIDE (this ensures that CF_RunActiveContent.js can be found)
-C:\[cfroot]\wwwroot\WEB-INF\web.xml has two servlet mappings for GraphServlet 
which points to /CFIDE/GraphData and /CFIDE/GraphData.cfm (still this 
GraphData.cfm file doesn't seem to exist yet still a mapping for it)
-C:\[cfoot]\lib\neo-graphing.xml also has servlet mapping for 
/CFIDE/GraphData.cfm


I've applied the coldfusion mx 7.0.2 cumulative hot fix 1 and this didn't solve 
my problem.  I've also tried created a 0 length GraphData.cfm file in my /CFIDE 
directory and that didn't work either.  I heard that all that had to be done 
was to make sure to have an alias for /CFIDE but I've done that already.  I'm 
not sure what else I can try.  Any help is much appreciated.

*Note: During the course of posting this I found several other posts a few 
months back on this topic, but none had solutions to work for me.  I will post 
again in hopes that someone now has a proper fix for this.

Thanks,
-Shawn

Re: Model-Glue Form Validation

2007-03-21 Thread Tom McNeer
Hi Rob,
I don't there's anything at all wrong with the way you're handling things
now. Depending on how simple/complex your application will be, you might
want to extract some functionality to encapsulate it. For instance, if
you're using your validation CFC, you're creating an instance and passing it
the form values. You might want to consider placing the email functionality
into a CFC that represents an email service, which is instantiated and a
method called. You could then build functions in the email service that
could let you handle emails for a variety of purposes, in a more generic
way.

Also, you might want to instantiate such CFCs into the application scope.
ColdSpring, with Model-Glue, can instantiate and inject these CFCs into any
of your MG objects that need them.


Now, whilst this works for me, I'm always looking to adopt the 'best
 practice' type methods, so I'm keen to learn a little more about how
 exactly
 I could implement your bean method.


Well, beans are their own topic. You should do a Google search and learn
more about them, since they're a very basic form of object, just a bunch of
getters and setters for the values they need to deal with (getName(),
setName(), getAddress(), setAddress()). Unfortunately, I don't have any
specific references to give you.

I believe the Model-Glue documentation will explain how the framework uses
event beans.

Also, you might want to consider joining the Model-Glue mailing list on
Topica. It'll get you MG-related answers much more quickly, and from folks
who know a lot more about MG and object-oriented programming than I.

Actually that is probably just what you are supposed to get back.  Look
through the output of your object dump.  You will see various methods
you can access on it.  Use these methods to access the data inside the
object.

Something like:
cfdump var=#PropertyDesc.toString()#

You may need to go through a few layers of this, depending on how
complex the returned object is.

RE: A quick referance guide to OOP MVC

2007-03-21 Thread Richard Kroll
 I'm looking for someone to give me a rough rundown of some of the OOP
 terms
 that I keep seeing thrown around and yet still baffle me. I've got some
 elements of my application that I've been handed by other people, and they
 refer to them as 'Facades' or 'Utilities' or 'Services' what are the
 definitions of those? And how should they be applied within an
 application.

Facades:

A Façade is intended to keep your code from knowing how something is managed.  
In web based OO, you often need to persist a user object across the life of the 
session.  You would not want session references sprinkled throughout your code, 
so you create a UserFacade.  Your application asks the façade for a user, and 
the façade manages persistence of the user object in the session scope.

Services:

Services are often referenced as part of a SoA (Service oriented architecture). 
 The easiest way I can describe them is using an analogy ;) 

Think of the process of going to the bank.  You walk up to a teller, hand 
him/her your account number and tell them what you want to do.  For example, I 
tell the teller my account number is 101 and I wish to deposit 500 into my 
checking account.  The teller hands me a receipt and tells me the money has 
been deposited.  

You have no knowledge of exactly what the teller DID, you just know that the 
money was deposited.  The teller performed a service to you.  The teller can 
perform many other services like withdraw money, transfer money.  Other 
services offered in the bank are home loans, but they are offered by a 
DIFFERENT person (think object here).

So the idea is that each object has a set of services that it offers.  Those 
services might depend on a number of different objects in your business model, 
but the service hides the inner workings and just exposes the facts that it 
needs to perform the service.  The tellerService might depend on an 
authentication object to verify that I have an account, an account object to 
deposit the money, etc.  The method call 
tellerService.depositMoney(accountNumber, amount) is all the rest of the 
application has to see, and simply depends on the return (like a receipt) to 
know that the deposit was successful, so you hide many of the dependencies.  
This makes for a stronger application.

Transfer Objects (TOs):
Transfer objects are simply objects that contain only data.  They expose this 
data as properties.  See 
http://java.sun.com/blueprints/corej2eepatterns/Patterns/TransferObject.html 
for a full explanation.


 I'd be interested to take any recommendations on more general perhaps java
 based OOP, MVC and AOP related books that would be worth me reading.

Many of the things you are reading / hearing are in reference to Design 
Patterns (gateways = table gateway pattern, DAO = Data Access Object Pattern, 
etc).  It might make things clearer if you look into the GoF (Gang Of Four) and 
their book Design Patterns: Elements of Reusable Object-Oriented Software.  I 
highly recommend Head First Design Patterns 
(http://www.amazon.com/Head-First-Design-Patterns/dp/0596007124), it's in Java 
but relatively easy to follow and an amazing explanation of many different 
patterns.

Thanks for that Tom, it makes more sense now.

But what's this with TO's being an object only containing properties? I
thought that was a bean? So for instants I'd have a bean that containing
only getters and setters, nothing more, is that a TO, or is a TO more like
an active record that represents a row of table data?

Renaming a query column?

2007-03-21 Thread Pete Ruckelshaus
Hi all,

I'm working on a webmail interface that supports both POP (suing
CFPOP) and IMAP (using Rick Root's imap.cfc).

I'd like to use a single set of interface components, but the column
names returned by cfpop and imap.cfc don't completely mesh up (i.e.
cfpop queryname.attachments and imap.cfc's queryname.attach...of
course, imap.cfc doesn't return anything from that column anyway, but
I'll tackle that later)

Is there a simple way to rename a column name in a query result set,
apart from setting aliases in a QoQ or using queryAddColumn()?  It
seems like there should be a simpler way to rename a column in a query
result set.

Thanks,

Pete

Yeah, I could certainly make changes to imap.cfc, but my real hope was
to NOT do that so that when changes are made to imap.cfc by Rick or
whomever else is working on it, I could just grab the updated cfc and
run with it.

The dreaded question of intellectual property

2007-03-21 Thread Peter Tilbrook
Have had an issue for an unyet finished project (despite working my arse off on 
it) where the client wants full ownership of the resultant code.

I am very unhappy about this for several reasons:

1. Their remuneration is pathetic (AUD$21 per hour compared to my usual rate of 
$65+) - I got close to that much slave labour trawling through 8,000 boxes of 
dusty file boxes.

2. This will be a major business tool - total automation via ColdFusion, SQL 
Server, EFTPOS, email, Credit Card processing and pure Adobe Acrobat paperless 
output, most of their business processes, with import/export between notebook 
databases and the main system, and SMS integration.

3. Our host is useless and despite many attempts to get answers they still do 
not have secure SSL. I have started looking for a new home for them 
surreptitiously.

4. They do not own licenses for either ColdFusion or SQL Server - ouch for them?

5. There are a LOT of other businesses that would be interested in what I am 
creating. So why would I sell so cheaply (or at all).

Re: The dreaded question of intellectual property

2007-03-21 Thread Mik Muller
Have you signed a contract stating thus? 

I've worked on other projects for people who want the same consideration and I 
just tell them that in order to save time, the code I write for them will have 
pieces of other projects I have worked on, and will have code snippets and 
utilities taken from online resources, so the project -- as a whole -- isn't 
competely distinct. As such I let them know that while I won't just copy and 
paste wholesale to a new application (and certainly not a competitor) I may 
wind up using pieces of what I wrote for other new projects including my own, 
and they're usually ok with that.

Otherwise I insist that everything, and I mean everything, must be written from 
scratch and they pay a premium for it. They can't expect me to reuse old code 
and then divorce myself from the resulting code.

Re: WSDL Confusion

2007-03-21 Thread CF Newbie
Actually that is probably just what you are supposed to get back.  Look
through the output of your object dump.  You will see various methods
you can access on it.  Use these methods to access the data inside the
object.

No luck. I try dumping the method that's there, just like you pointed out and I 
get nothing... well, that's not exactly true, I get something like the 
following:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

That's what I get when I do a dump of cfdump var=#PropertyDesc.toString()#

Any ideas going forward? Things I can try, stuff I can do? Do I contact the 
vendor that's providing the web service? Or is this just bad coding on my end? 
There's a getSocketConnectionStatus that's supposed to return a boolean value, 
but whenever I cfdump OR cfoutput the variable I get back (isSocket) I just get 
the word ONLINE. I'm assuming that's someone's definition of a boolean, but 
it's not giving me an error, so the webservice IS there, and it's talking to 
me. My username and password and COID (a unique company ID) are all being 
passed okay with no error message being returned. What would you do next?

Usually what I do, is sell a copy of the license, not ownership unless
it is something that is ONLY GEARED towards their

That way I can re-sell the work if needed(wanted) without repercussions.

How do I display a message if update was successful?

2007-03-21 Thread John
Hi,

I'd like to display a message if an update was successful. I'm not sure how
to approach this being new to CF.

I have an UpdateDate column in my table, which is populated by
#DateFormat(Now(),mm/dd/)# #TimeFormat(Now())# on submission of my
form.

my flow: form  action page  updated form

Seems like I should write a cfif that checks to see if UpdateDate was
updated in the last second of so, but I'm not sure how to do this.

Any other ideas are welcome.

Thanks for your help

2007-03-21 Thread Vince Collins (NHJobs.com)
I agree with hof.kenfused...

Just be careful that your contract clause doesn't state specifically 
that they own the full rights to all work done by you and that selling 
what you wrote doesn't break any non-compete language you may or may not 
have agreed to in the contract.  Standard boilerplate contracts 
generally include such things I suspect as mine does for one of my 
current clients.

Your price for your work seems cheap and is probably obvious to your 
employer however they may not care about you slaving for that wage if 
they have it in writing that they own all source code exclusively.

Best of luck!

If your SQL update query doesn't return an error, that indicates your update
was successful. You don't really need to do anything more to ascertain this.
So, assuming that you're redirecting the user to the form, simply set a
variable in the action page that can be accessed when the form page
executes.

Not sure what database you're using. 

Mssql has @@rowcount which returns the number of rows affected by the last 
statement. You could return the @@rowcount and use that value in your cfif. 
Most databases have something similar.

cfquery name=UpdateRecord ..
   UPDATE TheTable
   SET   Blah = 'blah'
   WHERE id = 3

   SELECT @@RowCount AS RowsUpdated
/cfquery

cfif UpdateRecord.RowsUpdated gt 0
   something was updated
cfelse
   nothing was updated
/cfif

* Interview Hal Helms on OO Programming with CFCs
by Clark Valberg. First published in Fusion Authority at
http://www.fusionauthority.com/Community/4670-Hal-Helms-on-OO-Programming-with-CFCs.htm

Hal Helms is regarded by many as the patriarch of the ColdFusion MVC 
movement. His upcoming CFUNITED
2007 talk, OO Programming with CFCs, promises to be an exploration of 
OO techniques and thinking
from one of the foremost experts on the subject. Today I sat down with 
Hal to find out a bit more.

Clark Valberg:  Hey Hal, thanks for joining me today.

Hal Helms:  My pleasure, Clark.

CV: So I want to chat with you a bit about your upcoming talk at 
CFUNITED 2007, OO Programming
with CFCs.

HH: Ahh, yes.. one of my favorite topics on which to pontificate. What 
would you like to know?

CV: Well, by the sound of it, it appears to be a beginner's topic. Is 
that right?

HH: No, I wouldn't say so, Clark. You can use CFCs to wrap some 
functionality, but that's a long
way from doing good OO programming.

CV: So would you say there are degrees of OO?

HH: Yes. And from my experience, the more you learn, the richer your 
designs become and the more
robust your code. But there's a long stretch between learning the basics 
of classes and methods and
real OO mastery.

CV: So, should all ColdFusion applications be written in an OO style? 
That seems to be the word
on the street.

HH: I wouldn't say that either. For simpler applications, which we all 
build a fair number of,
procedural programming works just fine. OO can really be a hindrance in 
those cases.

CV: Hindrance? How so?

HH: There's a level of complexity for doing OO apps and if all your 
client needs is simple grab
stuff from a database and display/massage it, writing a bunch of 
classes provides little benefit,
but significant cost.

CV: Ok, that makes sense. So let's say our company starts developing 
all new applications in a
strict OO style. What happens with our procedural developers? Do they 
become our new parking
attendants?

HH: Hopefully not! If your company starts doing OO development, there's 
still plenty of space for
those procedural developers to help out as they acquire OO skills.

CV: So how long do you think it should take for proficient procedural 
developers to get the hang of OO?

HH: When I was doing Smalltalk, we used to say it took a good six 
months, sometimes a year, for a
procedural programmer to change the mindset and learn the skills. One of 
the biggest hindrances is
the illusion of knowledge. I must be an OO programmer because I'm 
writing classes and instantiating
objects.

CV: What about Design Patterns, Hal? Where do they fit in?

HH: Design patterns show us new ways of thinking about old problems. 
They can be very useful, not
when they're slavishly copied, but rather as inspiration.

CV: I read a book about some gang of dudes and in it were tons of

True but I doubt his update statement would ever do that... Ever. 

I would presume that it will be a case of update or error as Dave noted and
without possibly using your own messages in SQL, it will do the trick.

 business processes, with import/export between notebook 
 databases and the main system, and SMS integration.
 
 3. Our host is useless and despite many attempts to get 
 answers they still do not have secure SSL. I have started 
 looking for a new home for them surreptitiously.

 interested in what I am creating. So why would I sell so 
 cheaply (or at all).

Did your contract specify that they would receive full ownership of the
resultant code? What exactly did it specify? Everything else is irrelevant.

Is this up to date for 7.0.2?  I does not read like it is.

I am getting into Apollo and would like to connect my Apollo app to
Flash/Flex Remoting on my CF server.  I hear it is faster then soap.

RE: A quick referance guide to OOP MVC

2007-03-21 Thread Richard Kroll
 But what's this with TO's being an object only containing properties?
I
 thought that was a bean? So for instants I'd have a bean that
containing
 only getters and setters, nothing more, is that a TO, or is a TO more
like
 an active record that represents a row of table data?

Rob, 

It's just a really lightweight version of an object that can be passed
around.  It can also be used in the memento pattern (using a TO to
populate a bean). For example:


cfcomponent displayname=userTO
cfscript
THIS.id = 0;
THIS.firstname = '';
THIS.lastname = '';
THIS.password = '';
THIS.emailaddress = '';
/cfscript
/cfcomponent

This TO would then be handed to another object, for example a DAO:

cffunction name=Save
cfargument name=to type=path.to.TO /
cfset var qSave =  /
cfquery name=qSave datasource=#getDSN()#
UPDATE users
SET id = #arguments.TO.id# 
,name = '#arguments.TO.name#'
!--- etc... ---
!--- and use CFQUERYPARAM! ---
/cfquery
/cffunction

RFC: Open Source CF-based webmail client

2007-03-21 Thread Pete Ruckelshaus
There has been some discussion here recently about the lack of a good
CF-based webmail client.  I have been working on the basics of one
over the past several weeks using cfmail/cfpop (for POP accounts) and
imap.cfc, which I believe Rick Root has been refining from the version
found on SourceForge.

While I'm generally happy with the direction that my project is going,
I'm more of a CF guy than a design  front end guy and feel that this
client could use some Web 2.0 POP (sorry, pun intended) as well as
someone with some much heavier Java Mail experience than I have.

Would there be any interest in this?  I would be willing to present
what I have put together already as the foundation for this project.
It's neighter beautiful or mature, but it's a start.  I can set up a
SVN repository on my home server that would be accessible to anyone
working on the project, and then once it is at a reasonably mature
state, we can open it up under some open source license.

I would say that, for starters, we would need the following players (a
single individual can fill more than one role, if they have the
skills):

* CF developer(s) (of course)
* Developer with extensive Java Mail experience (for the IMAP piece)
* Front-end developer with cross-browser, cross-platform AJAX experience
* Flash/ActionScript developer (for a Flash forms version)
* UI/UX designer
* PM/big picture person

I can easily foresee some level of database development needed, but it
wouldn't be anything extensive.

If anyone has a sincere interest in participating in this project,
please email me at pruckelshaus at gmaildotcom and I'll act as
organizer until this thing achieves some level of critical mass.

Re: How do I display a message if update was successful?

Dave Watts wrote:
 Well...it indicates that there wasn't an error.  It doesn't 
 actually indicate that anything was updated. UPDATE sometable 
 SET somecolumn = 'somevalue' WHERE 1=0 won't throw an

 If you run a query that filters out all rows, it would still be successful,
 which is what the original poster asked.

Right, I just wanted to point out that the lack of an error does not 
mean that anything was updated.  I know you understand this, but I'm 
just afraid that others who are new to SQL may take your statement at 
face value.  I've run into cases where people were running updates on a 
table where the record they were attempting to update did not exist.  No 
error, but also no update.

Many people who tested ColdFire ran into an issue with complex sites
(sites using Model-Glue for example). This bug even made it impossible
to change pages while ColdFire was being used.

Today that bug should be completely fixed. Please download the latest

I'd definately be interested in being involved on some level.  I built
that little CFOpenMail thing just with the idea of using it to test my
enhancements/improvements/bugfixes to the original imap.cfc, but I think
this should definately be a group effort.

Count me in.

return variable error

2007-03-21 Thread Scott Stewart
Hey all, 

 

I’ve got a component that runs a query. The query returns a bunch of HTML in
a MS Access memo field.

When I invoke the query I set a return variable called bodyStruct. I can
dump this variable and see the contents

 

cfset BodyObj=CreateObject(component,webControl)

cfinvoke component=#BodyObj# method=getBody
returnvariable=bodyStruct

 

 

When I try to use it in a cfoutput I get the following error

 

“



Complex object types cannot be converted to simple values. 

 

The expression has requested a variable or an intermediate expression result
as a simple value, however, the result cannot be converted to a simple
value. Simple values are strings, numbers, boolean values, and date/time
values. Queries, arrays, and COM objects are examples of complex values. 

The most likely cause of the error is that you are trying to use a complex
value as a simple one. For example, you might be trying to use a query
variable in a CFIF tag. This was possible in ColdFusion 2.0 but creates an
error in later versions.

”

 

Any ideas n how to output this sucker?

 

Thanks

Wow! I've been pushing like crazy the next release of Transfer
finished before I fly out for webDU, and I actually made it.  I leave
this afternoon for Sydney at 4:00pm, so I'm cutting it fine.

This release has 2 great new features, the afterNewEvent and Transfer
Query Language, as well as several critical bug fixes, not to mention
a greatly expanded documentation, including a new Overview and FAQ.

I need to go and pack so I can catch my flight to webDU, but a full

Sounds like you are not returning a string from your method getBody - make

Subject: return variable error


 Hey all,



 I've got a component that runs a query. The query returns a bunch of HTML 
 in
 a MS Access memo field.

 When I invoke the query I set a return variable called bodyStruct. I can
 dump this variable and see the contents



 cfset BodyObj=CreateObject(component,webControl)

 cfinvoke component=#BodyObj# method=getBody
 returnvariable=bodyStruct





 When I try to use it in a cfoutput I get the following error



 



 Complex object types cannot be converted to simple values.



 The expression has requested a variable or an intermediate expression 
 result
 as a simple value, however, the result cannot be converted to a simple
 value. Simple values are strings, numbers, boolean values, and date/time
 values. Queries, arrays, and COM objects are examples of complex values.

 The most likely cause of the error is that you are trying to use a complex
 value as a simple one. For example, you might be trying to use a query
 variable in a CFIF tag. This was possible in ColdFusion 2.0 but creates 
 an
 error in later versions.

 



 Any ideas n how to output this sucker?



 Thanks

Re: return variable error

2007-03-21 Thread Christopher Jordan
sas,

Use cfdump var=#bodyStruct#. This has the in-built capability to 
output complex variables (arrays, structures, objects, functions, etc.) 
cfoutput is only for simple strings, numbers, etc.

Hope that helps,
Chris

 cfquery datasource=#request.dsn# name=qGetBodyContent
 SELECT bodyText_content
 FROM tbl_bodyText
 WHERE FK_page_id = #page_id#
 /cfquery

 cfreturn qGetBodyContent
 /cffunction

Looks like if you want to return a string of html, you want to do:
cfreturn '#qGetBodyContent.bodyText_content#' /

You could leave your returntype any or change it to string - changing it 
to string would be best practice since that is what you are actually 
trying to do - return a string of html from your method.

if you're returning a structure, you'll need to reference the keys
within the structure (e.g.
cfoutput#bodyStruct.keyNameHere#/cfoutput.

you can't just cfoutput#bodyStruct#/cfoutput because (like an
array or a query) it's a complex object.

Scott,

Did CFDump not work for you, or are you looking for a way to output the 
data to screen for display in the app? I guess I'm confused by all this 
talk of strings when what I thought you wanted to do was dump the 
results of the query to the screen presumably just to see what got returned.

Otherwise, why aren't you looping over your result set to output the 
data to the screen? I must be missing something...

I have this line of code:

cfgridcolumn name=TotalMoneySpent header=Total $ Spent On Election
numberformat=$__.__

The problem is that I am not getting the properly formatted number. My
column just shows someting like 22369.22 rather than @22369.22. In the
table, the data is entered as 22369.22 and the field is a type of Money.

Thanks,

 Hey all, 

  

 I've got a component that runs a query. The query returns a bunch of HTML
 in
 a MS Access memo field.

 When I invoke the query I set a return variable called bodyStruct. I can
 dump this variable and see the contents

  

 cfset BodyObj=CreateObject(component,webControl)

 cfinvoke component=#BodyObj# method=getBody
 returnvariable=bodyStruct

  

  

 When I try to use it in a cfoutput I get the following error

  

 



 Complex object types cannot be converted to simple values. 

   

 The expression has requested a variable or an intermediate expression
 result
 as a simple value, however, the result cannot be converted to a simple
 value. Simple values are strings, numbers, boolean values, and date/time
 values. Queries, arrays, and COM objects are examples of complex values. 

 The most likely cause of the error is that you are trying to use a complex
 value as a simple one. For example, you might be trying to use a query
 variable in a CFIF tag. This was possible in ColdFusion 2.0 but creates
 an
 error in later versions.

 

  

 Any ideas n how to output this sucker?

  

 Thanks

Re: Numberformat not working

2007-03-21 Thread Peter Boughton
Try setting type to currency.

ie:
cfgridcolumn name=TotalMoneySpent header=Total $ Spent On Election 
numberformat=$__.__ type=currency

I have this line of code:

cfgridcolumn name=TotalMoneySpent header=Total $ Spent On Election
numberformat=$__.__

The problem is that I am not getting the properly formatted number. My
column just shows someting like 22369.22 rather than @22369.22. In the
table, the data is entered as 22369.22 and the field is a type of Money.

Thanks,
