Re: [cfaussie] Are there any mid-snr CF devs left in Australia
I have written a lot of complex systems in ColdFusion in my time but for the last few years I have been working with just Java. Still love ColdFusion best though.

Re: [cfaussie] Cold Fusion with SQL and Geo Spatial Mapping Geo Fence Functionality
I am not sure what the Geo Fence table actually is but either way to find if a location is inside or outside your fence it is simple if you have a closed polygon.

Re: [cfaussie] Cold Fusion with SQL and Geo Spatial Mapping Geo Fence Functionality
Ah, I took my own advise as to what a GeoFence is. It is a virtual boundary. Makes more sense now. I thought you might have been mapping real boundaries. Either way. I have some code I wrote in C years ago somewhere that does a point-in-polygon check. It was easy. The main trick is to shift the coordinates so are all positive numbers. It probably doesn't matter for longitude as you would have 0-360 but shift any latitude numbers up if any are negative. Then you can easily extrapolate if either the x or y axis are crossed a positive or negative number of times. It also handles geographic donuts if you have any. Another option might be to move your data into PostgreSQL with PostGIS extensions. Then you have all the geospatial tools you need .

So now I just keep those lines in my clipboard manager for whenever I need them. I suppose the real questions is; Does it matter if you use the whole JDK for getting jmap to work or not? Does using the JDK libraries simply allow the jmap application to use appropriate libraries for it to run - or does it effect the way it binds itself to the running process too - so that it does matter that it does not match the JVM. Could you not upgrade the JVM / JDK to be the same version?

Once you start wanting anything simple out of CF charts you need to use the chart builder. With that tool you can do an amazing amount of layout work.

Re: [cfaussie] CF 9 Microsoft Exchange
I had a similar problem to this and decided that it made more sense to have 1 email and forward all emails that met a certain criteria to the real email account.

Re: [cfaussie] Optimising SQL Tables Searches
I would probably change the query to read
select {whatever the real columns that you want to select}
from members
where club_id in (select club_id from session)
Then add indexes to the club_id in both tables and see how that goes
Cheers,

The SQL tables I am working with were not created with indexes given the

Now however some of the tables have 5,000+ records and some have well over
30,000 records contained with them and as a result the applications are
starting to slow down when they the pages load.
One example is a members table that now has over 5,000 records.
The columns within the table include
id
member name
member phone
date joined
club_id
Each time the membership page loads the members table runs the following
query in order to display all the members
select *
from members
where club_id like 'session.club_id'
This allows the membership page to then list all the members details who
are in the same club as the person who is logged in. Generally the search
results of any given club range from 100-500 members, in other words.
When I run the query in sql manager studio it takes around 9 seconds to
display the search results of a given club.
When I create an index based on club_id and then re run the query in sql
manager studio it still takes 9 seconds
Any comments assistance on how to improve the performance of my sql queries
given the scenario outlined above would be greatly appreciated

Re: [cfaussie] Migrate CF from CF 5 to CF9
I would jump straight to 9 too. Since the code was written in 5 it probably would be a quicker process to go to 9 and a smoother transition too. Setting up data sources and custom tags shouldn't be a problem. If you go through all the levels then it would be more labour intensive with no visible benefits. Run the code through the code checker. It will help heaps and make sure your testing thorough. I have migrated apps before if you (as I am sure most of us have) if you want some help.

We currently have a lot of duplication of business logic in some Java Web apps, a CF public website and some legacy fat clients. Ideally we want to move to an architecture where our desktop clients and web apps to share the same back end codebase (likely to be Java). Is it feasible that the public website (CF) could make all its data accesses via the Java stuff exposed as Web Services ? Or would this suck performance wise? The CF server and web services would be hosted in the same data center. All the samples with web services seem to be getting a stock price or a weather forecast. I guess what I want to know is, is it scalable to something bigger than that? Obviously deploying the Java code within the CF server instance and accessing it via cfobject is an option too, however I think the goal is to have all the clients (be they CF, Flex, Java, whatever) talking to a shared set of services if this is feasible?

[cfaussie] Re: Security Of Customer Bank Account Details
I would say that a property management company should be able to afford their own server so at least they are not sharing with others. Also, you are probably going to be running in SSL which means you need your own certificate and IP address. It is strange how everyone says not to store the information unless you have some very safe manner. And I do agree. But ironic how, as a company, I am willing to have my account details out there for any of my clients who must store them on God knows what system. I have seen so many invoices with BSB and Account number emailed to me and credit card details handed out over the phone it makes me wonder. Probably doesn't help much but I just see the irony of it. How individuals can be so protective, and rightly so, but yet willing to give out information at the same time. 2009/5/24 Steve Onnis st...@cfcentral.com.au that sort of information should not be stored on a shared server like that and should be heavily protected on the network, and really shouldnt even be accessible from the internet like a shared server would be. -- *From:* cfaussie@googlegroups.com [mailto:cfaus...@googlegroups.com] *On Behalf Of *SAMARIS *Sent:* Sunday, 24 May 2009 3:08 PM *To:* cfaussie@googlegroups.com *Subject:* [cfaussie] Re: Security Of Customer Bank Account Details Can you please expand on your comment steve.

[cfaussie] Re: Protecting Programmers Code and IP Located On Clients Server
The other reason that I would not be too worried about the SQL being visible is that they can always examine the database structure anyway and garnish information from that. Without the application then it probably won't help much. Cheers, Simon 2009/5/14 charlie arehart charlie_li...@carehart.org Well, the SQL statements aren't turned into anything other than the text that they are. It's the CF tags and functions that are transformed into calls and references to underlying java objects. So you can't achieve perfect obfuscation, no. I should add that some may note that there are tools that can further obfuscate java code, too, but I'm pretty sure they work from java source, and we don't get the intermediate Java source. (Well, there was an option for that in CF 6, but it was removed in 6.1--http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/191/tn_19191.html.) So this seems the closest you'll get to protecting your code. Is the fact that someone on the server can see the SQL in a CFML page a really significant security concern?

Also, the URL needs to be different than usual. Eg.

[cfaussie] Re: My charts dont come out
Hi Mark,
If you have an apache mapping for CFIDE then you should be ok. You say the
images are being generated in your cache which means the cfcharts is ok. The
next problem is where does apache think the URL is pointing to. Do you have
virtual hosts? That could affect things. Also, you might want to check that
the charts are being generated to {coldfusion home}/charting/cache but your
url points to a sub directory images.
The only thing the maping for CFIDE does is provide a path to the Javascript
and the cfm template for displaying them. It could be that cause you are
running under SSL that Apache does not know how to find the cfm template.
Cheers,
Simon

Hi Simon, We use apache.
My charts are coming out in the cache.
I dont really have a multihomed setup, just servers that share a
fileserver.
Since my charts are very simple I want to go for the most easily maintained
option.
Currently we get to the cfAdmin through a subdomain so I wonder if I need
httpd.conf to include mappings to CFIDE/scripts and CFIDE/images?

I can think of 2 things.
1. That since you are using https (SSL) you might not have your mappings or
virtual host setup for that. Probably you only have them for http (clear).
This would be in IIS not Coldfusion. If this is a shared hosting situation
then you will need your mwn IP address as you cannot virtual host with SSL.
Not that I am aware of anyway.
2. In the CF administrator their is a mapping (Disk Cache Location) for
where charts are placed. This needs to match the URL.
Another option is to bypass the CF charting and ue the API directly. If
you search google there are some examples on how it's done.

It could very well be true for unicode text which would align with your discovery but I would say that if there was numeric data it would be stored more efficiently as binary than as text which would occur when you parsed the xml. 4 bytes for a large float where as the text equivilent could be 8 or more (in fact 16 since it would probbly use 2 bytes per character).

Different numbers for each contest. and you have to enter something in the SMS like the answer for example. Also, the originating phone number is part of the request so they then know the mobile of the person that sent it and the answer.

You cant put a link in it for people to click on as an SMS is text only. Some phones highlight numbers and that sort of thing but that's a software thing so I wouldn't depend on it. You can add a link in there but it wont be clickable. Another option is to use a 1300 number and see if it will include any other numbers after the number and still forward the message on properly. That's how they do things like 1300 STEVE ONNIS. There are too many numbers for a phone number but the service only recognises the numbers related to the phone number and connects you anyway. Maybe if you have the 1300 number push the sms to a mobile number you can include other values in the reply number. So if your reply number is 1300123123, then you could do something like 13001231239456 so 9 could be the userid and then 456 would be the jobid. When the SMS gateway gets the message with the FROM number being the 1300 number you can process the message with the message contents and the FROM number values. Just a suggestion but maybe something to look into. Steve -- Cheers Simon Haddon Woman loves feeling danger and speed. That is why woman wants man.

Hi, We don't use any web connection from the mobile. As long as they can send an SMS then they are right. The email part of it is so that the consultants with email can send an SMS via their email which gets picked up and then ships it off as SMS via ValusSMS. Once we have 3000+ calls/month then we will probably go back to Mobile365. The SMS providers only accept GET and the post back via GET as well. Not much of an option there as that is how they all appear to accept it unless they provide an SMPP gateway.

[cfaussie] Re: CF SMS Gateway
I have just send an SMS to my phone via an email. It was in html and it came across as plain text with the embedded URL placed at the end. I also put the same URL in as plain text and it turned it into a url I can click on. The only problem I see with this approach is that you would need internet access and web enabled phone which is not really a big deal now as most phones have that. It would be very easy to have a list of a few URLs that give the different options so that they click on a URL and that is it. Then you could have whatever you wanted. Maybe not as elegent as using just SMS and it would cost more to use as the client of the phone would be making internet calls which is lots more than a plain SMS. The only time we have to respond to a request is when a client requests information. In that case it is easy. But the other way? Can't see another option besides the URL idea or enterig the job number in the SMS. Mind you, since you know who the message came from you can check that the number entered is one on their list and iff not return an error telling them that it is incorrect. Maybe even give them a list of current jobs they are doing to help them? Up to you .

You can details at http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/docs/howto/coldfusion but you might need to ask me for the latest version depending on which version of mapscript you want. There is a demo included. Once you have it installed you can create maps till your hearts content. You will probably need to read up on how to creae a mapfile but they are reasonable easy. And you can use something lile QuantumGIS to help you there as it can create map files from layers you have loaded.

Hi Mark, I can't say I have had that problem but I would suggest the following. 1. Stop coldfusion before renaming any files 2. Take a copy of neo-query.bak (to a different directory). 3. then copy it to neo-query.xml 4. restart coldfusion. The reason for stopping CF is that the neo files get overridden each time the server is stopped. If you don't do that first then you will loose your copy. and have it replaced with whatever is in memory at the time. ie: Whatever you see in the CF administrator. Hope that helps a little.

[cfaussie] Re: [OT] Authentication with JavaScript/AJAX
I would suggest a server generated temp key which then gets pumped to the client and is part of each request. Then the only thing you need to do is make sure that the initial request is from an authentic source. This part may be harder if relying on cookies but if only temp keys are used then might not be such an issue.

[cfaussie] Re: cfinclude and parent document variables
Sounds very strange. Things I note is that that you would normally get a coldfusion exception not a null pointer exception which is more at teh java level. The only times I have seen this occur is when 1. threading an application and a variable has been garbaged collected but the other thread thinks it still exists 2. ColFusion needs a restart cause it an old flaky 6.0 version and it has lost the plot 3. The application name is changed 4. templates get called out of order cause some didn't reaslise that template x relied on template y, etc. Maybe that gives some where to start anyway.

[cfaussie] Re: Connect To Remote CF Server Admin API from AIR Application
The only think I can think off would be to write a web service that sits on each server and talks to the admin api. Then you would just need to make web service calls from AIR. You would just want ot make sure that the services a very well protected. Cheers, Simon 2008/5/20 Owen West [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hi all, Hoping somebody can help me out. We have several clustered CF8 instances here at work and I want to develop an AIR application whereby our developers can connect to a CF Cluster name from the AIR app, enter CF DSN details, Mappings, etc and have these settings created automaticallly at the click of a button on each CF instance in the cluster. This will greatly simplify our deployment as currently we need to log in to each instance separately using the CF administrator URL, create all required elements, making sure we get all the settings right, and repeat for each cf server. My main problem at the moment is that I am having difficulty in getting the AIR application to connect to a remote ColdFusion server's Admin API cfcs. I can connect to my local development server's admin api, but not my remote testing server. It is certainly possible that I have missed something really obvious, however I cannot seem to figure out how to do this. All the examples I have seen show using cfml code such as adminObj = createObject(component, cfide.adminapi.administratorhttp://appdevcf.cfide.adminapi.administrator ); However, this only connects to the local CF server. How can I point this at a remote ColdFusion server's admin api? As I said, maybe I'm missing something really obvious - if so please point me in the right direction!

Yes. You can bypass the limitations with the XML and a little Java. Or you can bypass by using all Java. In the Webcharts3D designer you can cut / paste / modify the generated Java to use or you can use the XML and hook directly into the charts engine.

[cfaussie] Re: CFCHART question
Hi, This is how we use webcharts. 1. We save the project (WCP file) in a folder accessible by the CF server. We use to save just WC3D style sheet but realised that we could just grab that from the WCP file at run time and saving one project file is easier to maintain than 2 files for each chart. 2. Create the XML Style from the WCP project. Could have parsed the document into XML then then grabbed the frameChart element but this appeared to be simplier and quicker.

[cfaussie] Re: CFCHART question
You should have 2 main elements under project. The 1st is frameChart and 2nd is model. In fact that is in CF7 which uses Webcharts 5.0 I just noticed that in CF8 they have moved to webcharts 5.1 which doesn't have the frameChart element any more. Try something like the following. You might need to adjust it somewhat but you want everything that makes up the contents of the style elements cfset iStart = findNoCase(style,sChartStyle) cfset iEnd = findNoCase(/style,sChartStyle) cfsavecontent variable=chartStyle cfoutput?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8? #mid(sChartStyle,iStart+7,iEnd-iStart)# /cfoutput /cfsavecontent On 18/01/2008, Raymond Camden [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I'm having issues duplicating this.

[cfaussie] Re: Cookie over SSL - vulnerability
Hi Taco, Your probably right about receiving the response back but, then again, once a tcp/ip connection is open then the ip address means nothing as a packet response on the same connection would not be effected by duplicate ip addresses. As for changing your IP address. Yes, you just set it in your network setting and maybe even tunneled through someone elses machine. This is all theory to me as I am no tin the habit of doing this sort of thing myself. The main thing to remember is that tcp/ip is not secure and can be intercepted in many ways if required. All tcp does is provide a reliable network over ip. Another method would be to use telnet even and send your own custom cgi parameters or write modify your own version of a browser to send the cgi parameters that you want. Wouldn't even need to modify your own IP address that way. I am sure there are plenty more examples that ppl in that field could give. When things are transmitted in clear text then you have to assume acceptance of a certain level of risk. The questions are probably along the lines of. How valuable is the persons data to someone else, how tempting is your server for hackers for other reasons (ie, other web sites).

Look at the worse case scenario and work back from there. You really need to do a risk assessment against the type of transactions you want to perform in non-secure mode. If you are willing to let most of the traffic go via clear text then it probably isn't that important that someone will try to masquerade as another person. Under no circumstances should you have anything that hints towards username or password stored in the cookie if you decide to take that route. If all you are interested in doing is stopping the Securescan message then just don't set a cookie when in SSL and leave it till after.

We've just had our site scanned by ScanAlert (if interested, read more http://australiansearchengine.wordpress.com/2008/01/14/a-secure-search-engine-in-coldfusion/ ) and a couple of low alerts came up. One of them being about cookies, see below. * Missing Secure Attribute in an Encrypted Session (SSL) Cookie * The application sets a cookie over a secure channel without using the secure attribute. RFC states that if the cookie does not have the secure attribute assigned to it, then the cookie can be passed to the server by the client over non-secure channels (http). Using this attack, an attacker may be able to intercept this cookie, over the non-secure channel, and use it for a session hijacking attack. My question is; even if we would set the cookie over a secure channel, we would not put SSL over our whole site, because it would take up to much processing power. This would mean that once the user goes from SSL to normal HTTP, the cookie would be passed over a non-secure channel again. Am I missing something?

[cfaussie] Re: Strange FIX() behaviour
Floating point maths is a pain in any language as there are limitations to representing floating points in todays CPU designs. The problem is that floats don't fit nicely into 32 or 64 bit systems and floats are represented as approximations. I had this problem last year in calculating rainfall percentiles and wondered why the results where never exactly the same. Near enough is good enough it appears. Having said that IBM did do something in their hardware to minimize the problem back in 1968. I don't know of Intel or AMD used the same nearest number technique. If you need to be 100% accurate with your cents then I would remove an decimals by treating your cents as whole numbers separate to your dollars , and possibly store as complete cents units. ie: (9 * 100) + 95 would be fine. You could tokenize the dollars and cents to split it up prior to turning it into a pure cents value. I guess most banks have used the slight rounding errors to their advantage.

[cfaussie] Re: isDefined() bad?
I agree. I am currently the lead developer and architect for a rather large project with structures as complex as you have, Grant. I have been very strict with ensuring that the structures are initialised properly with sane default values as it saves a lot of heartache in the long run. I understand where you are comming from but all I can say is don't be lazy cause it will bite you on the arse later I do have some exceptions when a CFC is being loaded into the session scope to persist it along with the session data it relates to (I said that bit so Peter doesn't ask me why I don't just shove it in the application scope) then I do use isDefined and isSimpleValue to see if the CFC needs to be created and initialised. For anyone that is interested, we have a 30 Gig database and 70 Gigs of files to process in our application. Performance is a huge issue. Having said that we have been able to tune the database (Postgresql) so we can sub second response from tables with 150 million rows in them.

[cfaussie] Re: isDefined() bad?
Hi Grant, The choice is really down to your programming style. I have come from a C / Pascal / PLSQL / Java background and have learned to be very dogmatic and methodical with my programming style. As a team leader I insist that all variables are either declared at the start of a template or to use cfparam if expected and that logical default are set. I find the best part of this approach is that all variables are defined in 1 place and it helps with referencing which variables should exist and what their default values should be. I also find that it reduces the number of variables being used as you have a reference point at the top of the template to check for what is available an why it exists. I am the same in CFCs where I expect that all arguments are defined and either set to required or defaulted with a logical default value. I also expect that all local variables are defined (which is even more important in methods as local variables. Still, having said that.

I can't agree with the statement goes without saying as too often I have to say it. I have seen so many bad implementations of CFC that clobber variables left right and centre that it really annoys me and , disappointingly it is allowed in the language. I have taken over projects that I have cringed a the code because of really bad practises and some really dumb thing being done in CFCs so I tend to be of the opinion that it is always better to repeat it .

Hi, I did this in an excel spreadsheet years ago. Initially followed the instructions on the ATO website but found they were slightly wrong. So after a little mucking around and validations against known ABN's I came up with a formula that works. (Which is only slightly different to what the ATO said anyway). Rather than explaining it here I would say just look at the spreadsheet. The top 1/2 shows how to generate an ABN from an ACN and the 2nd 1/2 validates an ABN. The only things that I ask is that you create a CFC that is open source and credits me with doing the initial ground work. Oh and make the CFC available to everyone as I am sure there are ppl out there with the same problems. The other good thing is that it would be easy to implelement into Javascript too.

Confusion set in after a long weekend Cheers, Simon On 09/04/07, Rod Higgins [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Why bother making a comment like that when it adds no value whatsoever to the discussion?

[cfaussie] Re: validating an ABN
I can say that my method which follows the ATO rules except for their one mistake (which they have probably corrected by now) is correct and was used to assist the ACT Government during the changeover from ACN to ABN. It is not happhazard . It has been verified as correct Cheers, Simon On 09/04/07, Mark Stanton [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Guys I'm not commenting on any specific code or spreadsheet - I'm talking about how you are approaching the problem. On the one hand you have a method that will give you a yes or no answer that is guaranteed to be correct. On the other hand you roll your own approach that will at best give you something along the lines of I'm really not sure but that looks kinda right. Yes, there are some cases where a web service or HTTP GET are not applicable, but unless you have specific reasons that stops you, the ABR web service is the better choice. -- Mark Stanton Gruden Pty Ltd http://www.gruden.com -- Cheers Simon Haddon --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups cfaussie group.

[cfaussie] Re: validating an ABN
That is one thing that the web service can do that standard validations can't do. I was trying to help with the original request made by Stephen. The web service has the advantage of giving back other information too. Like company name, history, etc. Not all applications can call web services however. Sometimes there are wierd firwall rules in place. Especially in Government departments. I know that the web server that I deploy my latest application on cannot make http requests going out. Really sucks but is proving a major headache to change and will likely take years at our current rate of negotiations. Therefor the reason to have a CFC.

The only troube with building up a local cache is then you hae to keep the cache current. I would create a hybrid solution that did internal checking first. On 10/04/07, Mark Stanton [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi Stephen The web service is pretty damn fast (500ms for the round trip), but if you are worried about performance you could validate the format and/or build up a local cache of ABNs that have passed validation already. Cheers Mark On 4/10/07, Stephen M [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I'm thinking that the best idea would be to do both, first validate the number then submit to the web service. The web service will probably be slow at times, so you wouldn't want to waste time submitting a typo. My approach is to validate, ask the user to check that what they have entered is correct, then submit. regards, Stephen On Apr 9, 2:00 pm, Stephen M [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: So, has anyone got a Cold Fusion ABN validator they can throw me?

[cfaussie] Re: Java Output streams into CF vars
The Java 1.4 issue is not a problem cause when you run your code in development you are still running under the CF jvm which should be 1.4anyway. It doesn't matter what eclipse uses unless your creating java classes that you plan to compile under eclipse. Even then you can compile then with a different version of the jvm to the ide Cheers, Simon On 29/03/07, Haikal Saadh [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Actually, 100% of java objects will have a toString(), as java.lang.Object has toString(). Whether toString() does anything useful is an entirely different matter. Also bear in mind that primitives won't have toString(), which is why I asked if he was dealing with byte[] or a wrapper class. But then again, as I mentioned in my earlier email, it's a little moot for people using java 5, as it has autoboxing. CFers will still have to exercise caution, though, as JDK 1.4 does not have that feature.
