[transfer-dev] Oracle timestamp field
Hi! I'm using the last version of transfer (today), with coldbox (2.6.3), and with an Oracle 10g database. I use several tables that have a Modified TIMESTAMP field. This field gets updated with the current timestamp everytime a record is modified using a trigger in the database. The problem is that my model uses a Date field, and when a record is instantiated to the java object, I get a jdbc error saying the following: coldfusion.runtime.Cast$DateConversionException: The value class oracle.sql.TIMESTAMP could not be converted to a date. Any suggestions?

[transfer-dev] Re: Oracle timestamp field
Hi Mark, Thanks for your feedback. The Modified TIMESTAMP field is just a field of type TIMESTAMP, similar to a date field, that gets updated with the current time when the record is updated. I needed two fields DateCreated and DateModified than would store the creation and modification dates for every record. I've finally solved the issue using DATE fields, that also store the time, and don't have problems when cast to java Date objects. If anyone is interested, I'll post both triggers that insert the correct dates in both fields. Thanks for the help, Pedro.

[transfer-dev] Re: manytoone relationships in lists
Thanks to all for the answers. I have a couple of basic questions though... In the FAQs, in the question on the differences of oneToMany and ManyToOne relationships, it says that the objects in both sides of the relation are visible to each other. My problem is that when generating a LIST of objects (Orders) with a ManyToOne relationship (with Users), I cannot access any information on the ToOne part of the relationship. i.e. When I get a list of Orders, I cannot access any info of the related User objects... Is this correct? Is this the way it's supposed to work? I guess what I need to do is: in the method called to get the list (dspOrders), use a TQL to retrieve the fields I need using the transfer.ListByQuery method... right?

[transfer-dev] SOLVED: manytoone relationships in lists
Thanks again to everyone. I leave my last questions opened, but I solved the issue, and learnt a little more about transfer :P I solved it by using the transfer.listByQuery method instead of the default transfer.list. Taking the objects described before, this is the code: ... cfset var myQuery = getTransfer().createQuery(from sp.Order join sp.User) / cfset var orders = getTransfer().listByQuery(myQuery) / ... And then, in the view I have all properties from the Order (Name) and the User (Username) objects. Thanks all for the rapid response, and the good tips! CU!

I already had all I needed... and a little more. I was actually making the mistake described on this page: http://docs.transfer-orm.com/wiki/Same_foreign_key_for_a_manytoone_and_a_onetomany.cfm So I removed the m2o relation from my relations' objects, the PersonOrg mentioned in previous messages. To show the org info when showing a Person object (org name, acronym, etc), with its list (getPersonOrgArray) of related PersonOrg records (Role), I used the getParentOrg method available at the many end of the o2m relation Org-PersonOrg... works like a charm, and I think it loads faster also!

[transfer-dev] Re: manytomany... not quite
Hi Matt! Actually, trying to save the object PersonOrg still throws a duplicate column name error :( I thought that it was fixed because I configured a copy of the original object PersonOrgPlain in transfer.xml with no relation to Person or Org, and was saving this kind of object. What works better is the view of the Person page with the list of related Orgs and Projects. I guess there's no way of saving objects that are the end of a o2m relation, because they will always have an extra foreignKeyId field... I'd like to have all the relationship Object's data management within the same configuration, but I can live with duplicating the objects that deal with m2m relations for now... I'd like to find a more elegant solution, from the data model's design and coding perspective though. Any suggestions apart from overwriting the generated methods in the PersonOrg objects?

If I try cascadeDelete, all objects related to the organisations will be deleted PersonOrg and Country. I read in the documentation about removemanytoone... and I thought it was what I needed! I could remove the link between Country and Organisation before doing the cascadeDelete... right? Transfer responds with The method removemanytooneCountry was not found :( Am I missing something?

[transfer-dev] Modify (move) relationships

Is there an easy way to do this with transfer?

I'd like to move those relationships unchanged, just to move them from organisation A to organisation B. In SQL this would be trivial to do by just updating the organisation FK from organisation A, to organisation B in the org_person table. I'd like to avoid looping through the org_person structure to modify each org_person.OrgId from one organisation to the other, as I'd need to create the organisation objects. Can this be achieved in one shot? Something like: cfset org1persons = org1.getPersonsStruct() / cfset org2persons = org2.getPersonsStruct() / cfset StructAppend(org1persons, org2persons, true) / cfset org1.setPersons(org1persons) / TIA!

If you have nullable=false for a property and you set the property to an empty string, the corresponding column will be set to an empty string on save. When you read the column back, the property is populated with an empty string. Thanks again, it now makes sense. I had always taken them as some kind of validation... :P If you want to be able store both NULLs and empty strings in the same column... Actually, I want the field NOT to be null. I have already solved the issue just by not validating the object when the field is empty. But I have another problem which I'll post in another thread. Does that make sense?

[transfer-dev] Dirty read problem
I'm having an issue where a user edits an object that does not get validated, and then another user, in another computer, requests that object's data and receives the invalid data, with the isDirty flag set. It probably has to do with the cache, so just in case this is transfer cache configuration: objectCachedefaultcache scope type=instance / /defaultcache/objectCache And coldbox's (2.6.4) relevant configuration: Setting name=HandlerCaching value=true/ Setting name=EventCachingvalue=true/ Setting name=IOCObjectCachingvalue=true / Setting name=IOCFrameworkvalue=coldspring / TIA, Pedro. -- Before posting questions to the group please read: http://groups.google.com/group/transfer-dev/web/how-to-ask-support-questions-on-transfer Try out the new Transfer ORM Custom Google Search: http://www.google.com/cse/home?cx=002375903941309441958:2s7wbd5ocb8 You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups transfer-dev group.

[transfer-dev] Date precision Postgresql vs. Oracle
Hi there! I have 2 systems for development. Some of the software is the same in both (transfer 1.1, coldbox 2.6.4), but the database server is Oracle 10g in one, and postgresql 8.4 in the other. I'd like the dates to be shown with the time also. I have a transfer.list that shows a date and oddly enough, in the system with oracle the date is printed without the time, on the other system with postgres, the time is displayed by default. How can I make this consistent? Transfer seems to loose information on date fields with oracle. If I TimeFormat() the dates from oracle, I get 00:00:00 although the raw data in oracle contains the information needed. Any ideas?

Your question on jdbc Driver version was on the right track. I found a known problem with the jdbc drivers provided by adobe. Interesting discussion: http://www.justskins.com/forums/cfmx-and-oracle-10g-128214.html I'll see if I can convince IT to modify Coldfusion's bootup options. Another solution they point out in the discussion is to replace all date fields with timestamp fields, but I seem to remember transfer does not support timestamp.

[transfer-dev] No records returned: CF7 and oracle
Happy new year everyone! I left last year with a strange problem that probably has an easy solution which I fail to see. I'm using Coldbox, Coldspring, Transfer and Oracle 10g. I have stumbled upon a few driver issues, and this probably has something to do with it. First, the table: sessions, which just has the following fields: PersonId (CHAR 32), Token (CHAR 36). The use case is simple, a user wants to be authenticated and doesn't remember her password. She accesses a form where she enters her email address, the system checks that the email exists, generates a token using CreateUUID(), persists the session object to the database, and sends an email with a link containing the token just created. The link takes the user to a page where all the system has to do is search the database for the token, and generate a user session accordingly... pretty simple. Second, transfer.xml: object name=Session table=USER_SESSIONS id name=PersonId column=PERSON_ID type=string generate=false / property name=SessionToken type=string nullable=false column=TOKEN / /object Amazingly, the record is never found. I have tried many transfer methods, all unsuccessfully, among others: - readByProperty: SessionToken, and the generated token. - readByPropertyMap: the map consists of a struct with a SessionToken key, and the token as its value. - listByQuery: the query is simple FROM ...Session WHERE ...Session.SessionToken=:sessionToken - Change the TOKEN field to varchar2. The first two return a new object, and the third returns an empty query. I also cfdump the whole table, to check that the record exists, and the sql sent to oracle, and all look just fine... as they do in many other parts of the application. If I run the query generated directly in SQLDeveloper, it works fine. I have also tried the same code using postgresql instead of Oracle, and it works!! Sorry for the long post. What else could I try to debug this? Any ideas?

[transfer-dev] Re: No records returned: CF7 and oracle
This is getting weirder and weirder. I modified the table and transfer config changing the field name to session_token, instead of token. No luck, same results. I then tried to see the sql being sent to oracle when using listByProperty, and readByProperty. To do this I modified transfer configuration to point to the wrong table and provoke a table or view does not exist error that shows the sql that failed. - For the readByProperty method, the query is: select PERSON_ID from NW_SESSIONS where SESSION_TOKEN = (param 1) - For the listByProperty method, the query is: select SESSION_TOKEN as SessionToken, PERSON_ID as PersonId from NW_SESSIONS where SESSION_TOKEN = (param 1) The param 1 in both cases is just fine: (param 1) = [type='IN', class='java.lang.String', value='4B85F89A-D1AF- E4E2-13148E6984C1271F', sqltype='cf_sql_varchar'] If I run both queries directly, they both work as expected, both return 1 row, on the other hand if transfer runs them, they return no rows... WTF? I am at a loss here, I don't know what else to try. This doesn't make any sense!! Pedro.

[transfer-dev] Re: No records returned: CF7 and oracle SOLVED
I found it!!! The problem was that the token field was defined as CHAR 36, and the token generated was 35 characters long. The token was being stored with an space at the end. What I still don't understand is why when transfer runs the query select PERSON_ID from NW_SESSIONS where SESSION_TOKEN = (param 1), and param1 is 35 characters long, it returns no rows, but when I run the query directly in SQL Developer select PERSON_ID from NW_SESSIONS where SESSION_TOKEN = '4B85F89A-D1AF-E4E2-13148E6984C1271F';, it returns one row...

Hi all,
First thing, the system: Coldfusion MX7, Oracle 10g, transfer 1.1. I
need searches not to be case sensitive. I've tried to walk around this
issue with different approaches, but each had its problems:
- Changing the NLS settings in oracle. The problem: the data model
needs too many extra indices. Also, it turns out that setting the
session parameters to oracle's jdbc connection can have unexpected
results.
- Creating views in oracle with extra lower(columns) and extra
properties in their respective transfer objects. The problem: the data
model gets messy soon.
I thought that it may be easier using transfer to solve the issue. The
idea is that, when translating from TQL to SQL using the LIKE
function, the column could be translated to 'LOWER(column_name)',
instead of just 'column_name', and searching for lcase('%query%'),
instead of just '%query%'.
I've had a look at transfer's source code, as well as ANTLR and a hint
as to where to look would be greatly appreciated... or any other ideas
for that matter. Could I modify conditionBasicClause and the like
OPERATOR in the Tql.g file? I guess I probably should modify the SQL
part, not the TQL part...
Thanks in advance,
Pedro.

[transfer-dev] Re: Transfer/MySQL saving 0 as NULL in int field
Hi Brian, What you need to do is to set an integer value that represents the null value in coldfusion. You can do this by setting the nullvalue attribute in your property. In your case: property name=milliseconds type=numeric nullable=true nullvalue=- / This tells transfer that it should insert a null value in the database if and only if the property's value is -. The default nullvalue for integers is 0, and that's why transfer inserts a null in the database when you have 0 milliseconds. You need to have nullable set to true in order for nullvalue to have any effect. Does you milliseconds property need to have nulls? You may be interested in the following documentation also: http://docs.transfer-orm.com/wiki/Default_Property_Values.cfm http://docs.transfer-orm.com/wiki/Custom_Methods.cfm HTH, Pedro.

[transfer-dev] Non case sensitive searches, revisited
Last April I offered my time to solve this issue but, unfortunately didn't receive any responses. The time has come for me to solve this issue once and for all. I'd really appreciate any feedback. The problem: Transfer does not support functions, so it's not possible to do non case sensitive searches using functions like LCASE. Initially I solved the issue by creating views in the DB server with a LCASE version of the columns I needed to search, and adding new objects in Transfer. The problem of this approach is that it soon gets very messy: you need to have duplicate versions of the same objects in Transfer; you need to create extra views in the DB; if you decide to search in another column, you need add more code; and most important, the DB indices are not used as the query that the server receives does not include LCASE. (If someone needs more details on this, please let me know) The proposed solution: Ideally, I'd like to add support for SQL functions to Transfer, but I'm afraid it's too big of a problem for me. The second, simpler option is to modify Transfer's behaviour when it deals with the LIKE function. After checking Transfer and ANTLR source code, the easiest path seems to be to modify the TQLSQL translation of the LIKE operator from the current translation: property LIKE expr - column LIKE expr to property LIKE expr - LCASE(column) LIKE LCASE(expr) This way, the DB server knows it should use the LCASE index. Any ideas? comments?
