Call .jar files like .exes with CF8

2009-05-04 Thread David McGuigan
I'm trying to execute a .jar file with some parameters from a cfc and then use the file it generates afterward. But, Google and I cannot seem to figure out how you execute .jars in CFML. This is an epic fail: cfexecute name = #expandPath( '/my.jar' )# arguments = -o etc outputFile = #expandPath(

The solution was providing a full path to the java.exe like so if anyone's curious: cfexecute name = x:\serverware\coldfusion8\...\java.exe arguments=-jar yourJar.jar [ options ] /cfexecute On Mon, May 4, 2009 at 1:24 PM, David McGuigan davidmcgui...@gmail.comwrote: I'm trying to execute

I actually think you're not supposed to use quotes at all with CSS url paths ( can anyone confirm/deny? ) So this would be what browsers would expect according to the CSS spec: form id=myfrm input type=button style=background-image:url(/ nav/bold.gif);width:25;height:23 / /form

I've always been curious as to how cfqueryparam works. Does anyone know if it just performs some scanning and filtering on the actual values of the parameters passed to it or whether it somehow signals to the RDBMS that the values are parameters to the query thereby treating an SQLI attack as an

if that would totally break because CF could be executing multiple queries in parallel through the same MySQL connection and the interwoven execution of all of these queries might make them overlap and overwrite each other's values. Is that about accurate? 2009/4/16 David McGuigan davidmcgui

Well from what I read today it seems like the performance is improved for reused prepared statements, which may not be how cfqueryparam is implemented. Prepared statements are stored and reused by name, passing in the values for the parameters. So if cfqueryparam is using prepared statements

Ah, thanks guys! What I didn't realize is that you can use unnamed / unstored prepared statements through the driver. That makes so much more sense now. So ColdFusion uses dynamically prepared statements which are implemented in the JDBC driver, which is a totally different ballgame from using

So my real issue was that I wanted to super dynamically assemble the SQL and then either execute it or do a variety of other things with it ( which I won't go into ). If you try to use cfqueryparam outside of a containing cfquery, ColdFusion breaks. So, cfsavecontent ...cfqueryparam...
