Re: cfc question...

[Mike Kear]

[A]   One of the good things about cfcs, and its also quite confusing
to the beginner, is that there are several ways to code most of the
things you want to do.

For example, to pass in variables to a method,  you can do it this way:


Or


(In the second case you have to make sure that the name of the
variable being passed in is exactty the same as the argument name at
the top of your method)

The first way of doing it, is less typing, but it requires that you
pass in the arguments in the exact order you have them listed in the
function of your cfc.

If you call the method like this:


then you have to make sure your method in the cfc is written so that
it doesnt fall over if there is no argument passed in.   Normally
you'd give the argument a default value like so:



So if you try to run the method without giving it an agentID, it'll
run using '333' as the value of agentID.

[B] passing in the DSN: if you put your dsn into the application
scope, as in   then your cfc will
work, by simply calling up a query as follows:


SELECT whatever, whatever2, whatever3, FROM tablename


That will work.  But it's considered bad practice, because it is
requiring your cfc to know about the application scope.  If you move
your site around or rebuild some of it ,   you might not have the
datasouce in the application scope any more.(yes i know, I konw -
these are things that hardly ever change, but trust me, this is
definitely good advice)

Instead, you should make sure that your CFC doesnt need to know about
anything in the whole world, apart from what you tell it.  This might
seem a bit esoteric when you're talking about just a datasource name,
but i have build cfcs with 60 or 70 variables they depend on.   Making
sure those puppies are all corralled and in a nice neat row when the
cfc is called is a bugger of a job if they're called from application
scope or request scope.  I found by using that method if i changed
anything in the request scope lots of things broke all around the
place.Instead, i now use a configuration cfc and pass that into
all the cfcs that need any configuration info (one day we'll talk
about how easy it is to let ColdSpring take care of all that for you!)
 and if i change any of the configuration structure, all i have to
make sure is the configuration cfc works correctly and everything else
will work.

So in short while it's not so vital now,  it will become vital one
day.  So just get into the habit of never requiring a cfc to know
anything about its environment.   You'll tell it what it needs to know
when it's instantiated.

So therefore,  if you have your datasource name stored in an
application. variable called application.dsn,  you'd instantiate the
cfc at the top of any page that uses it like this:



[C]  multiple uses of your CFCs.

You are having multiple subdomains arent you?  One for each of your
sales agents. This screams out to me that you're going to have a lot
of similar sites.   That means you're going to be having the same code
in multiple places.  It would be good to see if you cant have the cfcs
in a central place, and available to all the subdomains.That way
you're re-using the code.  That's a good thing becuase there's less
maintenance for you in the future, easier mainetnance,  more
reliability because you dont have dozens of copies of the same
queries, functions etc all over the place.If you can manage to put
your cfcs in a common folder, and available to all the subdomains
you'll make life a LOT easier for yourself in the long run.
Remember that getAgentName() is going to be the same for one agent as
another.   also getAgentCommission() or getAgentSalesAwardBonus()
methods are going to work the same for everyone.  If you have 30
agents to build sites for, you dont want to have 30 copies of those
cfcs scattered about.   What if you make a change to something and
amend 29 of the cfcs and forget one?   If they all share the same cfc,
then change it once and it's changed on all your subdomains.

So here's a site layout i suggest you try:

e:\inetpub\webroot\c21ar\components  (<-- stores al your components,
organised into subfolders if necessary.)
e:\inetpub\webroot\c21ar\components\agents
e:\inetpub\webroot\c21ar\components\admin
e:\inetpub\webroot\c21ar\components\listings
e:\inetpub\webroot\c21ar\components\utilities


e:\inetpub\webroot\c21ar\subdomain1
e:\inetpub\webroot\c21ar\subdomain2
e:\inetpub\webroot\c21ar\subdomain3
e:\inetpub\webroot\c21ar\subdomain4


WIthout playing around with it, I'm not sure exactly how this would
impact your instantiating your cfcs.  you might need to get a mapping
pointing to e:\inetpub\webroot\c21ar\components   It all depends if
your web server will treat the webroot in a page called in your
subdomain as   e:\inetpub\webroot\c21ar\subdomain1  or
e:\inetpub\webroot\c21ar  . But if your web server treats the web
root as e:\inetpub\webroot\c21ar, then no matter which subdomain a cfc
is called from, you'd call it like t

There are some problems with classloading, and some of it can be
addressed via code, but I think some of it is just inherent to the
nature of the beast.

I actually don't know what CF could do to alleviate the problems.
Some crazy servlet, maybe?  :-P

Re: Accessibility testing

Oh hell, I'm not thinking at all.

You could leverage the same libraries that parse things looking for
alt tags and whatnot in live code, in some type of ANT process, I bet!

I'm pretty sure something like jTidy or whatnot could get a good bit
of the no-human-mind-needed type stuff.

I think part of the problem is that you need a real person to assign
value to various bits and whatnot.  At least at some level.

That's about all I got.  *g*

Guess regression testing is all that's good for, tho.  And I don't

Maybe something like neuromancer or whatever, that captures and plays

Re: Looking for advice on permissions

[denstar]

You know, I've been struggling with this too.

Not really struggling, as, hell, you can code up something that will
work for one set of variables pretty easy, but making a general deal
that's flexible and whatnot?  Harder.

I'm leaning pretty heavy towards AOP and business object level permissions.

As in, "this person has these rights to these functions".  I'm not
sure about overhead, and you *really* want the condensed spring format
for doing AOP (I can't wait till that's officially in ColdSpring) but
it's the finest you can get.

I like to get as fine as possible, and then do a bunch of "global"
type deals so you don't always have to drop to that fine level of
detail (real PITA with hundreds of objects).
The nice thing is that you can get the function map right from the
live code, so part of what needs to be documented/stored is coming
from the same stuff that needs to use it, which is nice.  That "single
point of reference" deal.

Of course, now I"m wondering if I can do something like Hibernate does
for when you change the database model (it'll automatically try to
change the database to keep it in sync, if you so choose) when I
change functions around and whatnot.

The other thing I've done that was easy but not as portable, was to
use a framework to access the model, and then do all the authorization
on the framework events.
With MG this isn't too bad, and you can even crawl through stuff to
get the available event names from the code itself.
But it breaks down at that fine-grained control level.  You end up
with multiple events and duplication or complicated inheritance
schemes, etc..

I've been diddling with object-based AOP authorization POCs for a
while, but I'm not quite "there" yet.  Something's always not quite
flexible for case X, or case Y, or the syncing sucks, or some-such.

I'll holler if I find that magic bullet.  The all in one, nimble
fighter, long-range bomber deal.  It does happen, every once in a
while.

For what it's worth we see this all the time.

(Some) people can edit content or remove it from view (effectively "deleting
it"), but only a select very few people can actually delete content.

This is due, in our case, to SOX laws and accountability: you can't delete
any content (EVER!) unless that content has been fully reviewed by legal
first.  In practice this means that content is essentially never deleted
(although we sometimes delete content that never actually made it to the
public site for some reason).

In case it's not clear this also means that all content management must be
source controlled and we must be able to "show the content as it appeared
publically at any point in its lifetime".

The Law... it's a bitch.

Similarly we used to host agency sites for detached brokers.  It would be
(literally) criminal to allow one broker to edit the content of another's (a
competitor's) site.

I don't have any real suggestions... just commiserating that these
situations do exist.  ;^)

(WEB-INF/classes/mobi/mtld/da/Api.class).

I seem to recall you had a jar file, though. If so, you can put it in
WEB-INF/lib. Assuming it contains the package structure listed above, that
should be all you need to do.

In either case, after adding your Java file to the appropriate directory,
restart CF.

You're right about that, I think. I rarely see them used. Are you running 8,
or 8.0.1? If the latter, you should report it as a bug.

> For the adventurous/non believers get a jar decompiler ...

I recommend that you avoid posting the results of decompiling commercial
closed-source products to a public list.

Re: Looking for advice on permissions

[Mike Kear]

Thanks for your suggestions Claude.   Perhaps i should give you a bit
more background to this project.   Just to clarify, the scenario is
about the opposite to the one you are puzzled by.   I see the
circumstances where we might want to allow someone to edit content,
but for safety's sake not delete it or add new content.

Also i have a current need at a radio station to allow the sports
people to work on the sports part of the site, but not touch the
programming pages.  We want to let the people working on one radio
show to be able to update their page - add, edit and delete content,
but only from their page.I dont want to let them accidentally (or
deliberately - egos are huge at a radio station!) interfere with any
other show's content.

Another client is a professional association and has the same CMS.
They have lots of user groups, related to the different branches of
the profession.   Most of the content on that site is only visible to
people who are logged in.  There's a basic .site visible to the wide
world,  but most of the "meat" is only visible to people who are
logged in.  We also want to make some content visible only to
people who are logged in AND who are members of a user group -
Usergroup executive meeting minutes for example, or policy white
papers.

Thats why i wanted to set up the permissions to be able to assign read
as well as add/edit/delete rights.

I'm doing it at the moment but its clumsy and a real kludge, and if
anyone comes up with a new scenario that i need to account for, it
will probably hurt my brain figuring it out.  So since i'm working on
the next version of the CMS now, i'd like to incorporate a better
permissions scheme if i can find one.If i can't, i'll make do with
what i have.

Hence my original question.

GROUP BY should only be used if you're selecting non-aggregates along with
your aggregate.

Well, is the paid field a character field or a number field in the DB?

and just FYI, you can always go #querryName.Recordcount# to get a

I am using a select count() query to get the number of people directly 
sponsored by a person... this works fine, the problem is that I only want to 
have the query count people that meet a certain qualification.  There has to be 
a simple way to do this, my query pretty much looks like this:

Re: JNDI, Coldfusion and the AdminAPI

[Kenton Gray]

Good and very bad news,

TERRIBLY BAD NEWS:

I am 99% sure coldfusion 8 has as massive JNDI bug, which makes me think no-one 
is using this feature. Any statement that uses query parameters with JNDI will 
fail with a ClassCastException. For the adventurous/non believers get a jar 
decompiler (Jar Inspector on OS X is fantastic!), and check out 
coldfusion.sql.Executive original line number 1122, pasted at the bottom of 
this message for easy reference.

This has to do with the cfquery changes that occurred in CF8 (which have also 
caused me plenty of other issues: 
http://cfsearching.blogspot.com/2008/02/coldfusion-8-query-results-are.html)  

This is a straight up screwup if you ask me. If  the connection is a 
JRunConnectionHandle then supportsGeneratedKeys is set to false. If 
supportsGeneratedKeys is true then they brilliantly cast it to a 
JRunConnectionHandle. In the case of using JNDI & c3p0/jtds my connection class 
is NewProxyConnection. Below is the stack trace:

java.lang.ClassCastException: com.mchange.v2.c3p0.impl.NewProxyConnection
at coldfusion.sql.Executive.executeQuery(Executive.java:1122)
at coldfusion.sql.Executive.executeQuery(Executive.java:1008)
at coldfusion.sql.Executive.executeQuery(Executive.java:939)
at coldfusion.sql.SqlImpl.execute(SqlImpl.java:325)
at coldfusion.tagext.sql.QueryTag.executeQuery(QueryTag.java:831)
at coldfusion.tagext.sql.QueryTag.doEndTag(QueryTag.java:521)
at cftest2ecfm692724730.runPage([...]test.cfm:3) 

I would think anyone using JNDI with CF8 would have the same issue, simply do a 
cfquery with a cfqueryparam and you should get a similiar error (as long as 
your jdbc driver supports generatedkeys).

I've been through about a few billion different possibilities and I think I've 
hit a dead-end. If anyone wiser than myself has any suggestions please let me 
know. Also for what it is worth (which for me is nothing) this works FINE with 
Coldfusion 7. Anyone know a developer at Adobe? I'll even fix the code for them!

MEAGER GOOD NEWS:

Now for the small (and worthless) piece of good news is here is how you 
(completely unsupported style) dynamically create a JNDI datasource in CF8:


jndiName = "jndipath";
dsnName = "datasourcename";
dsDef = createObject('java','coldfusion.sql.DataSourceDef');
dsService = 
createObject('java','coldfusion.server.ServiceFactory').getDataSourceService();
configMap = dsService.getDatasources();
extraParameters = 
{sendStringParametersAsUnicode=false,port='',jndiName=jndiName,supportLinks=true};
dsnMap = 
{name=dsnName,password='',driver='jndi',url=jndiName,class="",type="jndi",urlmap=extraParameters,timeout=1200.0,interval=420,type="J2EE",disable=false,disable_blob=true,disable_clob=true,select=true,blob_buffer=64000,buffer=64000,storedproc=true};
fullMap = {};
fullMap[dsnName] = dsnMap;
configMap.putAll(fullMap);


I don't know why anyone would ever use this now but have fun if you do! 
(hopefully you'll have a better experience than i did.

So all in all a real huge waste of time, unless one of you really friendly and 
helpful house of fusion guys can help me out. I'd gladly buy anyone who can 
tell me what I'm doing wrong a few cases of beer (or any reasonable 
compensation!)

Re: mysqldump question

[denstar]

The dread .frm error!

I get it from time to time, but I cannot recall what causes it.
Foreign key constraints?  Some tables being innoDB and others being
MyISAM?

Something makes me lean towards foreign key constraints, try turning
off the constraint checking when loading the dump, perhaps.

RE: SOLUTION: JVM Tuning and s... I'm Back

[Brad Wood]

Thanks for the note about 8.0.1.

Did you ever try my suggestion about not creating as many threads, but
instead creating 10 threads to do 130 reports apiece.

I think it might get rid of some of your overhead.

At least partially.

After getting appropriate approval from the powers-that-be I upgraded 
the ColdFusion server from 8.0.0 to 8.0.1.  This seems to have solved 
the threads never closing problem even though I saw nothing about

This process still fills the memory and brings the server to its knees

Thanks, Jason!  I'll work on this approach.
Seems much simpler to work with once the function

Here's a question:  Would I include argument variables
in a call like this?



I assume the parenthesis are empty because no arguments
are involved?

However, if I wanted to get a particular agent's info:


if using a url, or

if using a form variable to id the agent.
Correct?

RE: cfc question...

[Rick Faircloth]

Thanks, Jason!  I'll work on this approach.
Seems much simpler to work with once the function
is instantiated in memory.

Here's a question:  Would I include argument variables
in a call like this?



I assume the parenthesis are empty because no arguments
are involved?

However, if I wanted to get a particular agent's info:


if using a url, or

if using a form variable to id the agent.
Correct?

Cold Fusion Cookies

[Cody W.]

 Hello,

I am currently working on a small application that uses CFcookies to let
people into this particular microsite. If the cookie does not exist the
application forces them to the register page. My problem comes when trying
to create the Cookie.




It seems that no matter what I set the "expires" attribute to the cookie is
still set to session only and is deleted when the user leaves the page,
forcing them to re-register each time they visit.

I just need advice on how to have the cookie persist through browser
sessions. Any advice is appreciated. Thank you in advanced.

copy files with cfdirectory & cffile

[thomas v]

Hi,

I have couple of questions to ask:

1) I can specific copy one file from one folder to another one but I cannot 
copy all files from my 'dropoff' to my 'gal_o7'. What 's wrong with the code 
below? 
2) I am setting up an event gateway and my CFC will do the copying (I have no 
CFML). How do I dump out the cfdirectory list? 

Thanks

Here is my code:

Yuppers, that's pretty much the only reason a like them now.  Well,
and browsers seem to know what to do with them these days...  see how
far we've come!  :-)

Looks like iframes are still in HTML5... I'd thought they'd keep 'em,
with all that's going on with 'em, AJAX wise.

Sadly, iframes don't work the way framesets do in  tags.

Oh well.  You can really only push that dual-purpose type deal so far
anyways.  Might as well use a code generator and just bust out various
versions of the site...

Following up on your email below, we use verity in our application and it

Re: Binding a CFC

[Ethan Harris]

Here is the portion that I'm not sure about (below).  The method is actually 
quite long, but the vast majority is just using  to set variables within 
a  tag.  I've tested that portion, and I'm sure there's no bug there.  
I'm not so sure about this query:


rateQuery = QueryNew("Shippers,Rates");
newRows = QueryAddRow(rateQuery,2);
QuerySetCell(rateQuery, "Shippers", "FedEx",1);
QuerySetCell(rateQuery, "Rates", variables.fxprice,1);
QuerySetCell(rateQuery, "Shippers", "USPS",2);
QuerySetCell(rateQuery, "Rates", variables.pmprice,2);

mysqldump question

[Richard White]

hi

we are getting dumps of our mysql database on our server and then dropping the 
database on our local machine, re-creating the database with the command create 
database dbname, then when we try to import all data from the dump file it 
produces an error saying that a certain table (.frm) could not be created

does anyone know why this would happen

this used to work fine but is not starting to give us problems

thanks

You don't need FRAME for this, unless you have to deal with clients who have

RE: cfc question...

[Jason Durham]

You don't *have* to use cfinvoke.  I prefer not to.

Once you have instantiated (created an instance of it in memory) the
object like you wrote below... you can 'invoke' any of the methods by
calling them via the object instance name.









Agent Name = DB_FIELD_AGENT_NAME 


Soon you will find the answer to all of your questions regarding OOP or
CFCs will be "it depends".  What does your agentLibrary CFC do?  If your
agentLibrary CFC interacts with a database (as you have indicated), then
what you're doing is correct.  Set a variable to hold your DSN/DB
credentials, and reference that variable when instantiating any
components that have to access the DB.

Ok, let me see if I'm understanding this...



The part above goes in the calling page before the cfinvoke
statement, right?  If so, how does this work with the cfinvoke
statement?
Is "agentLibrary" above becoming the variable that will hold
all the data returned by the cfc function, "agent"?

And I've always defined my db's using

in my application.cfm file, so if I continue doing that, then
I guess the creation of the agentLibrary variable above would be:


or something?

Or would defining the variable 'dsn' in my application.cfm become
an obsolete practice in the 'cfc era'???

Also, in your code below, I don't see the variable 'agentLibrary' being
used
after creation (instantiation?)...so how does it fit into the cfc
functionality?

Ben Nadel has a good post about how the isemail function differs from

The main problem is - I need something that MATCHES what the CFMAIL tag 
will refuse/accept.

Seems plain wrong that isValid("email", request.email) and the CFMAIL 
tag don't match each other.

Thanks Steve, that really helped a lot!
However, I'm still having problems when creating a site that has the
documentRoot outside the webroot.
When I do that, I get the "403 Forbidden" error.
Any sugestions?
I'm running Vista... (sorry ;o)

This is my VirtualHost in the config file:

DocumentRoot "C:/Apache/htdocs"

Re: load issue and SQL Server

[Ryan Duckworth]

Oh... I forgot to mention that ColdFusion caches IP addresses.

During down time, you need to:
1. Stop the ColdFusion Service
2. run ipconfig /flushdns
3. run ipconfig /registerdns
4. run ping yourSQLServer and you should get back the new IP
5. Start the ColdFusion Service

Make sure that in the ColdFusion Administrator you are using the name
of the SQL Server and not the old IP address.

I think this will solve your problem.

Re: load issue and SQL Server

Does the web server have 1 or 2 network cards?  If only 1, it is
contending with all the web traffic.
2 GB nics in the web server and 1 GB nic in the SQL Server should
solve the problem.

The default isolation level is READ COMMITTED, so that looks normal.

When you find a thread in Fusion Reactor that is taking a really long
time, capture the stack trace and email it to me.

Hope this helps.

Re: Looking for advice on permissions

[Claude Schneegans]

IMHO, independant permissions for viewing, adding, editing, deleting 
elements
may be going too much into details and obviously adding to the complexity.

Having only one permission for each type of element should be enough.
- any one can view elements on the public site anyway, so no permission 
is needed;
- permission for adding elements, but not editing or deleting it in case 
of error is kind of weird;
- why any one could delete an element, but not just modify it is there 
is anything wrong with it?

My system uses a table for all CMS types of elements (less than 20 of them).
Each type has a two characters code.
Every user has a list of all types he can edit (ie: view, add, modify, 
delete);
This list is set in a session variable at login time.
In the admin module, the menu is generated according to the codes found 
in this permissions list.

As an extra security measure, the presence of the element code in the 
list is checked again
at the top of all editing modules (one line of code).

Setting perrmissions for users is just a matter of checking appropriates 
checkboxes in a form
and storing the list of permissions in the appropriate field for this user.

Now I agree that this appraoch is not database wise "normalized", but it 
is much more easy and efficient if you have
say less than 1000 different types of permisions.

RE: Automating Domain/Mailbox Setup

[Dawson, Michael]

I can't help with the first question, but I can help with the second.

Since you are using Exchange, I can also assume that you are using
Active Directory.

You can add a mailbox either when the account is created or after.  RUS
(Remote Update Services) is responsible for determining if an Active
Directory account should have a mailbox.  If so, then RUS creates the
mailbox.

The easiest way to create the mailbox, after an account is created, is
to set three attributes on the domain account:
mailNickname
homeMDB
mDBUseDefaults

mailNickname = The username of the email address, in most cases.

homeMDB = The location of the mailbox in Exchange.  You can use another
account's homeMDB value as a reference.

mDBUseDefaults = Set to TRUE to use the default warning limits on the
mailbox size.  If FALSE, there will be no limits, by default.

These attributes can be set via LDAP.  However, creating an Active
Directory account is a different matter.

Once you have set these three attributes, RUS will "notice" them and
create the mailbox in a few moments.  You will know it's done when the
account has a email address.

Hey guys. We are currently looking for some insight on how to automate
domain name setup (both sub-domain, and standalones). Its a service we
are building, not a hosting solution so ideally it will not involve
control panels, but be some type of CF script we can run to setup
domains in IIS and add host headers. Has anyone had to do something
similar?

We are also looking for a similar type of mailbox solution where
subscribers can create their own domain mailboxes via our CF App. I'm
aware CF8 can access exchange server from an access level, but I didn't
see any tags or functions that allow you to create accounts, just manage
existing ones. Any insight on either solution would be apperciated.

We are running our own colo, CF8 Enterprise, on a windows 2003 server.

Re: Jrun Memory Usage Problem: could fileexists() be the culprit?

Hi Sean, 

I have tested Performance of function fileexists(). This function is not not a 
bottleneck. Also in a directory it doesn't search inside other folders.

Following scenario i used to test this:
30 Vusers for 10 mins trying to hit some randomly generated filenames(some of 
them do not exist). I observed that young gen and average heap size was almost 
constant during the run and heap size comes down as young gen GC was called.

Integrating ColdFusion with Tuxedo

[Joseph Bugeja]

Dear ColdFusion Users,

 

We are in the process of migrating a legacy client-server system from VB to
ColdFusion. The current system uses Tuxedo middleware platform. I believe
that Tuxedo provides listener/handlers for remote clients (Java, CORBA, WS),
but I would like to check with you if you foresee any difficulties or
challenges that we might encounter in integrating ColdFusion with this
platform. 

 

Your help and experience is really appreciated.

 

Sincerely,

Joseph Bugeja.

Integrating ColdFusion with Tuxedo

[Joseph Bugeja]

Dear ColdFusion Users,

We are in the process of migrating a legacy client-server system from VB to 
ColdFusion. The current system uses Tuxedo middleware platform. I believe that 
Tuxedo provides listener/handlers for remote clients (Java, CORBA, WS), but I 
would like to check with you if you forsee any difficulties or challenges that 
we might encounter in integrating ColdFusion with this platform. 

Your help and experience is really appreciated.

Sincerely,
Joseph Bugeja.

I'm no regex guru either, but there are valid characters outside the ranges
listed above, such as single quotes and plus signs.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E-mail_address#RFC_Specification

> Is an email like [EMAIL PROTECTED] a valid one (4

Yes, that is a valid address. To the best of my knowledge, there is no
maximum depth for subdomains.

> Also, technically, are [EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED] 
> considered the same address or not? Will any mail server

According to RFC 2821, the local part of the address is case-sensitive. Most
mail servers I've worked with will treat it as case-insensitive, though.

Yeah, when a new TLD comes out, it'll fail.

If people can't type their email address (twice) correctly, maybe you can 
afford to forget about them.
It's not like you can really verify a syntically valid address is even 
deliverable anyway.

No, but if it's your site, why would that matter? You could use the CFINDEX
tag to index your site's database content directly, then serve URLs to the
appropriate scripts to show that database content.

In any case, though, I'd recommend instead that you use the Google Site
Search product. This is separate from Google's regular crawl of your site.

I would recommend that you avoid frames. Everything you mention can be
accomplished within a fairly simple DHTML interface.
