CFBuilder Future

There is a discussion in the ColdFusion forum that has a CFBuilder thread: https://forums.adobe.com/thread/2342940I'll try cutting and pasting the relevant info here:raksh naresh, I decided to force myself to use CFBuilder more to be able to provide you with additional feedback. A few things I did not realize CFBuilder did I found I like, but I still have quite a few issues. In no particular order:Global searching within a project is a pain starting with the fact that you can only expand one module at a time. It finds all the occurrences but I have not found a way to scan through all the hits for a specific pattern I'm looking for - I have to expand one module at a time just to see the match.The parenthesis and bracket helpers are great for typing code from scratch, but in my work I do quite a bit of cut & paste and adding a parenthesis to existing blocks is more keystrokes than the one-character the helper is saving.Same for single and double quotes.Selecting a block to indent or

IsValid and cfparam acceppting lists of values instead of values?

Hello,I've noticed that cfparam and IsValid accepts a list of integers as a valid value when type="integer" is specified. Is this a bug, or the expected behavior?Example:I have a code like this on my pages to check the values passed,<cftry>    <cfparam name="url.n" default="1" type="integer"><cfcatch>    <cflocation url="error.cfm" addtoken="no"></cfcatch></cftry>And also tried:<cfif NOT IsDefined("url.n") OR NOT IsValid("integer",url.n)><cflocation url="error.cfm" addtoken="no"></cfif>In both cases, if I pass an url value like n=4 or n=string, it works as expected. With n=4, n passes the check, and the rest of the page is executed. With n=string, a string is detected and a redirection to error.cfm is called.But, if I pass an url value like n=4,14 then n passes the checks and the rest of the page is executed...  ???Using CF 8.01 over CentOS.

ColdFusion 10 - Question about Solr schema settings in the Jetty multicore templates folder

I've recently been tasked with making some changes to one of our CFSEARCH functions (specifically, making it identify accented characters). Based on some unrelated work I've been doing with a standalone Solr setup, I figured out how to add filters to the schema.xml file in the collection folder so that those filters would be applied when I restarted Jetty. However, restarting Jetty rewrote my schema.xml file every time.Eventually I discovered the /jetty/multicore/template/conf folder. When I changed the schema.xml file there and restarted Jetty, that wrote my changes into the schema.xml files in each of my collections. Great! Problem solved! However, my question now is whether or not there's a way to override the template folder so I can have a different schema.xml file for each collection. Currently, I don't need to do this. I only have two collections, and they both need the same filters. But in the event I ever need to customize a schema without affecting others, is there a way to d

CF9.0.2 gets a startup error "Unable to initialize Client Storage service" using Java 1.7.0_151

We applied the APSB14-23_FIX, which contains the hf902-00007.jar, and appears to be the latest CF9.0.2 update from Adobe.The CF server runs with that update under Java 1.7.0_55, but when we try to repoint to using Java 1.7.0_151, we get the Client Storage error, and even though the server does start, any request fails due to lack of availability of client scope variables.Our Version: 9,0,2,282541 Server.log:"Information","main","08/28/17","08:41:52",,"Starting client..." "Error","main","08/28/17","08:41:53",,"Unable to initialize Client Storage service:java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError"My suspicion is that CF9 is not compatible with the java 155 release, but since it is in the '1.7. series, that ought not to be the case.Has anyone else seen this error, and were they able to resolve it?Thanks,Ian[Moved from the non-technical Lounge Forum to the specific Program forum...

Optional Parameters..

Hi, I have a simple function that searches for a user (see below). using cfscript. cf2016 QryGetUser = Queryexecute("SELECT tblUsers.ID,tblUsers.OrganisaztionID,tblUsers.Username,tblUsers.Password,tblUsers.AccessLevelFROM tblUserswhere tblUsers.Username=?", [username],{datasource="myds"});I want to have the “username” parameter in the WHERE optional.So traditionally I have:Wrapped the where clause in IF statements to check if a Parameter isdefined.e.g.Where 1=1ANDIf(isdefined(“parameter2”){AND field2=parameter2}So this works just fine but gets a little cumbersome and hard to read,however with optional parameters I figure I am going to have to build my SQLstatement dynamically in any case. I have several parts to this question:1 – Is there a cleaner solution apart from building the SQL string2 – Would it be bad practice to pass the whole built SQL string as aparameter to this function, the entire select statement being built outside ofthe function3- Depending on the above answers would

cfprogressbar cfc bind runs only once

I'm trying to test the first sample from here ColdFusion Help | Using the cfprogressbar tagwhere cfprogressbar ... bind="cfc:pbar.getProgessData()" and the backyard code in pb.cfcThere are plenty more similar samples out there to run cfprogressbar with cfc callback bind since CF9 or so but I get all the same results.I'm running it on ColdFusion 2016 Update 4 and it only runs once from 0% to 10%. Only one step. Tested with both IE and Chrome with F12 debugger.In the browser debugger I see pbar.cfc?method=getProgessData& ... calls every one second as it should but the response is always the same like {"MESSAGE":"10%","STATUS":0.1}How can fix it, any ideas, please?UPDATE: It works only via http://localhost or https://localhostStuck via http://127.0.0.1 or https://127.0.0.1 or direct public available IP address or any domain name to that computer

Oracle LISTAGG causing query to run S L O W

Hello, all,I've got a query that is giving me fits.I'm trying to bring some code that my boss recently wrote into the 21st century.  One section that he wrote, he is using three queries to get base information, looping through one of the queries and running a query within that loop.  I hate this.  Every time I see code that runs a query within a loop, it makes my teeth itch.  So, I'm trying to run a single query using LEFT OUTER JOIN.I've got it working, but for one thing.  I am trying to get our Oracle db to aggregate some data into a string using LISTAGG(), and that is causing this query to take 14 seconds to get the data (the way my boss wrote the code, it's almost instant.)  Of the two tables involved, one has ~2000 records, the other ~4000, and the query is retrieving 23.  If I take out the LISTAGG() portion, the query is almost instant.I was hoping to get the db to do more of the heavy lifting.  Is there anything faster than LISTAGG() for a

CFOBJECTCACHE - question for Adobe

Hello, all,I recently ran across CFOBJECTCACHE, which has a single attribute with a single option, action="clear".  This was introduced in CF5.I haven't used it, yet, but it looks like I might have a reason to, soon.  But I am wondering if Adobe (or even Lucee) is planning on modifying it so that one can clear a specific query (as opposed to all cached queries within an application)?  Seems to me that if one has a site/app that has many (say, 30 or more) cached queries that this could put a huge strain on the CF Server due to all queries being re-run after this tag is used.I know that this isn't a forum that is staffed by Adobe employees, but occasionally an Adobe employee does peruse, here.  What say you, Adobe?V/r,^ _ ^

ColdFusion Server hangs with use of cfspreadsheet

Hi,We are running an application on a hosted CF11 server that uses the cfspreadsheet tag for one of the pages.Until a few days ago that tag was working without any problems, but now any pages that are using cfspreadsheet don't return anything to the browser.The browser hangs until ~5 minutes later it shows a "the server did not return any page" error message (different message in different browsers). I get the same results when I run it with my xls testfile with 2 lines of data and ~20 columns, that ran many times without any problems, and still runs fine on my development server.I did not find anything online about this issue, but as far as I know CF is using the Apache POI library for the cfspreadsheet tag.The hosting company did restart the server for us but that did not fix the issue. My guess at the moment is that they have installed some security update on the Windows server that messed up how that POI library is used and now it just hangs when it is called by CF and CF doesn't c

Public and licensed APIs with ColdFusion API Manager

I am looking at the API manager to provide both public (as in free) and licensed (as in paid access) to our API's.  The difference is that the public API's would be throttled and the licensed accounts would have unlimited, or un-throttled, access. In setting up and testing a public API, I set the authentication type to none (since existing users of our API do not currently specify something akin to an api_key).  I can access the API through the API manager (localhost:9100/......) but it does not throttle.  I have even set the UNLIMITED SLA to 1 request/minute but I still get unlimited access to the API from a browser.  However, if I use an authentication type of apiKey, and add an api_key to a query, I get throttled access even using the UNLIMITED SLA which is set to 1 request/minute.  So I know the SLA and hence throttling, work.  However, I cannot find a way to throttle public API's (those with an authentication type of 'none'). To complicate matters, I
