FB got lots more love and attention during its infant years, of course it was 
abandoned as a toddler.  CFB, not so much, though its not abandoned, only 
hanging out with step-parents.  You know Sublime has a CF plugin too for 
playing the syntax highlighting game.  Brackets does as well,

  Though I thought I saw Adam has left Brackets for Edge Animate or some such, 
might be telling if so.

That’s been my experience with it for the most part as well, Cameron. I used 
CF Builder 2 for some time at my last job and just found that there were too 
many “foibles” to want to invest in it when moving to my current job. I am 
back to using the free IDE that I started with many years ago that has a few 
problems, but it’s free.
 
That said, I’d love to see the product become more reliable and more 
reasonably priced as I’d consider using it again with those caveats.

Apologies if this was already suggested, but Eclipse in general can be a 
little bit hangy if you have a whole bunch of projects open. The more files 
you have open the more Eclipse has to crawl through when it's rebuilding your 
workspace. I'd check to make sure any projects you aren't currently using are 
closed. Also, I'd recommend against mapping to a giant central location on 
your drive to avoid having to use projects the way Eclipse intended. I think 
there is an option to close unrelated projects from the right click menu in 
Eclipse to cleanly close everything else.
 
Not sure this is your problem, but Building Workspace is what happens when 
it's crawling through everything. Sleeping probbaly means it's not actually 
crawling, but who knows.
 
Again, this is why I stopped using CFBuilder. I am 100% sure I could have 
followed advice of folks like Charlie and gotten CFBuilder to hum along 
without any trouble, but I personally don't feel like using an IDE should be 
that much work. Any technology I have to constantly fight just to use it goes 
into my trash bin pretty quickly now-a-days.

Re: [ACFUG Discuss] ColdFusion Builder freezes abruptly

Thanks Charlie:

This is very useful. I should switch to the CF Express edition and see if those 
freezes stop.

Well, start by looking at the list of what features ARE only in the paid 
edition:

http://cfdocyard.blogspot.com/2011/05/coldfusion-builder-express-edition-free.html

How many of those do you (I mean, “you all”, rhetorically) use?

One may go down the list and say “well, only a few of the 14 listed paid-only 
features seem interesting to me”.

OK, but so many people using CFB never setup a server connection (or don’t get 
it working right), whether it’s a remote server or even just their local 
development server. Perhaps half the real benefits of CFB (over other editors) 
are related to its getting info from the CF server, whether about code insight 
to access CFC methods and db tables/cols, as well as files that are accessible 
only using admin mappings, and so on. 

Then many other features are only really helpful if they can have access to all 
files on the server, not just necessarily those in a specific project, like the 
code hyperlinking (where you ctrl-hover over a file and it opens, which only 
works for files in the current directory or web-relative paths if you don’t 
have a server connection), the refactoring and quick-fix features, searching 
files on the server, the log viewing (viewing logs on the server within the 
IDE, using the Tail View), and more. 

Then there’s also the step debugger (but I know some will never use one, or 
many struggle to get it to work, because again it requires connection to the 
server, even if that’s “local”).

There are more, but you asked for “some”. Since you asked, Scott, are any of 
those things that you feel you have missed, or that others you see using it may 
have? :-)

RE: [ACFUG Discuss] ColdFusion Builder freezes abruptly

2013-09-03 Thread Charlie Arehart
Worth a try.

but note also: if you just do a “switch workspace” (in the menu) you may find 
the freezes stop, too. Of course, that gives you a new blank workspace. You 
need to re-import projects and other stuff. But sometimes that sort of reset 
fixes something. Note that you can always switch back to your previous 
workspace, to either review what had been set there, or just to go back if 
setting up  a new one is too painful.

Re: [ACFUG Discuss] ColdFusion Builder freezes abruptly

2013-08-23 Thread Chris
Thanks Cameron:

CF Builder freezes a lot. Flash Builder does not, though, both are Eclipse 
IDEs. I use them mainly because of code hinting, syntax highlighting and 
ability to detect errors as I type. There is only one project in CF Builder so 
I am wondering why does it have to crawl.

I appreciate your advice.

but it's free.

That said, I'd love to see the product become more reliable and more reasonably 
priced as I'd consider using it again with those caveats.

Apologies if this was already suggested, but Eclipse in general can be a little 
bit hangy if you have a whole bunch of projects open. The more files you have 
open the more Eclipse has to crawl through when it's rebuilding your workspace. 
I'd check to make sure any projects you aren't currently using are closed. 
Also, I'd recommend against mapping to a giant central location on your drive 
to avoid having to use projects the way Eclipse intended. I think there is an 
option to close unrelated projects from the right click menu in Eclipse to 
cleanly close everything else.

Not sure this is your problem, but Building Workspace is what happens when 
it's crawling through everything. Sleeping probbaly means it's not actually 
crawling, but who knows.

Again, this is why I stopped using CFBuilder. I am 100% sure I could have 
followed advice of folks like Charlie and gotten CFBuilder to hum along without 
any trouble, but I personally don't feel like using an IDE should be that much 
work. Any technology I have to constantly fight just to use it goes into my 
trash bin pretty quickly now-a-days.

Re: [ACFUG Discuss] ColdFusion Builder freezes abruptly

2013-08-15 Thread Chris
My ColdFusion Builder 2 has decided to be finicky again. From the heap monitor 
the memory used is 250M of 358M. 

In the progress view( windowshow viewothergeneralprogress), I see a message 
like Building Workspace(Sleeping), then another line which is Refresh 
Content(Sleeping) 

What could it mean?

Below is the error message, I get, when I try to close it using Task Manager

Chris, there could be any number of explanations, but one is that you may be 
running out of memory (within the heap of CFB). 

You can try to find out if that’s possibly an issue by turning on the “heap 
monitor” within cfb (an available feature under windowpreferencesgeneral), to 
see if perhaps you are running high on use of heap. And if so, you can do a 
Garbage Collection to see if the use of heap drops much. If not, that could be 
the problem. 

One thing to note: even if it is not showing high use of memory now, it may be 
using more after a period of time, when things go wrong. So keep an eye on it.

If that’s the issue, you can increase the heap use, via the XMX element in the 
java args, in the cfbuilder.ini in the CFBuilder directory, as discussed more 
at:

http://cfmumbojumbo.com/cf/index.cfm/coding/increase-cfbuilder-performance/

Let us know if that helps.

Chris-

Try what's Charlie described and see if it helps. If it doesn't...

I've found that any Eclipse based IDE is super memory hungry. Flex Builder was 
the same. If you can't get CFBuilder working to your satisfaction, you might 
also take a look at Sublime Text 2, which I started using exclusively about a 
year ago. It uses way less memory, is very snappy, and has CFML extensions 
available.

http://www.sublimetext.com/


I'd gotten to the point that I had to give CFBuilder/Eclipse about a third of 
my whole machine's memory for it to run and it still paused all the time for 
garbage collection. Sublime Text is crazy awesome compared to CFBuilder in that 
regard.

I appreciate your assistance and time.

Thanks for your kind regards, Chris. And isn’t it funny how troubling software 
can sometimes be like a petulant child: just when you starting watch it, it 
tends not to act up. :-) 

But patience, grasshopper. Yep, let’s see how it goes over time. Also, turn on 
the progress view (windowpreferencesgeneralprogress), to view background 
communications between CFB and CF (if you have connected any projects to a 
server). That too can be insightful, and perhaps your issues are only under 
certain forms of communications between the two.

As for other plugins, I would not immediately suspect that myself, no. I mean, 
aren’t those the ones that are built-into CFB? Everyone would be using them, 
and I promise not everybody has problems with CFB being resource hungry. As 
always, there is some explanation. You just need to find it. Hope the above 
(and below) will help.

Charlie,

Thanks for your advice.

I turned on the heap monitor and it has not crashed since then. Heap size is 
139M of total: 248M max: 495M mark:none . On doing garbage collection it 
drops to 64M of 248M 
If CF builder freezes again due to excess memory usage, I will increase the 
heap size.

But, under Window-preferences-general-Startup and shutdown I see all plugins 
in that window are activated at start-up

Coldfusion SQL Plugin
Appcode generation plug-in
...
...

Aptana scripting
Automatic updates scheduler

Could the fact that so many plug-ins are activated be causing CF builder to 
freeze? Also, I use Flash Builder 4.5(but that does not freeze often) lot of 
times along with CF builder. I understand some people have commented that 
Eclipse based IDEs are resource hungry even though my system was 8GB RAM

I appreciate your prompt response and time.

I wanted to echo Cameron's email.. I experienced similar. I wanted to also 
share another alternative that I have switched to: intellij IDEA. 
Multi-language support, but understands CF. Has a fast extended find and the 
ability to export search results. Also understands source control out of the 
box. It is commercial with a price tag, but well worth it. Trial dl at: 
www.jetbrains.com/idea

RE: [ACFUG Discuss] ColdFusion Builder freezes abruptly

2013-08-07 Thread Charlie Arehart
Chris, there could be any number of explanations, but one is that you may be
running out of memory (within the heap of CFB). 

You can try to find out if that's possibly an issue by turning on the heap
monitor within cfb (an available feature under windowpreferencesgeneral),
to see if perhaps you are running high on use of heap. And if so, you can do
a Garbage Collection to see if the use of heap drops much. If not, that
could be the problem. 

One thing to note: even if it is not showing high use of memory now, it may
be using more after a period of time, when things go wrong. So keep an eye
on it.

If that's the issue, you can increase the heap use, via the XMX element in
the java args, in the cfbuilder.ini in the CFBuilder directory, as discussed
more at:

http://cfmumbojumbo.com/cf/index.cfm/coding/increase-cfbuilder-performance/

Let us know if that helps.

This has happened few times in a week. ColdFusion Builder freezes before I
can save my changes. I have to forcibly close it due to which I lose my
changes.

Below is the error message.

I am using ColdFusion Builder 2, Version: 2.0.1, Build: 282422 on a Windows
7 Professional(64bit). My system has the required Windows updates.

What could be causing this and how can I fix it?

Thanks
