CF8 bug - cfswitch/cfcase

I've come across a coldfusion bug with some existing code
after upgrading to coldfusion 8. I have 5 pages each with a set of
cfcase's inside a cfswitch. Right after upgrading to cf 8 they all
gave me the following error: Context validation error for the
cfcase tag.
The cfswitch tag has a duplicate cfcase tag for value {ts
'1900-01-04 00:00:00'}.
ColdFusion cannot determine the line of the template that
caused this error. This is often caused by an error in the
exception handling subsystem.
I started troubleshooting by commenting out certain cfcase
statements and found that in every case it was caused by a cfcase
that had a value of "5f" or "3f" or "22f" - always the one with "f"
in it. All I have to do to fix it and get my pages running again is
change that cfcase value to "5g" or basically anything other than
"f". Its really annoying because I have to run back through all my
code and change the mode variables which are passing the "f" values
around, but I was wondering if anyone had any clue how to fix this?
Thanks,
Davey

This works fine here:
<cfparam name="URL.test" default="1" type="any">
<cfswitch expression="#URL.test#">
<cfcase value="1">
<p>it was one</p>
</cfcase>
<cfcase value="2">
<p>it was two</p>
</cfcase>
<cfcase value="3f">
<p>it was 3f</p>
</cfcase>
</cfswitch>
<p><a
href="test.cfm?test=1">One</a></p>
<p><a
href="test.cfm?test=2">Two</a></p>
<p><a href="test.cfm?test=3f">Three
F</a></p>

CF8 with JBoss JNDI datasource

After installing and configuring a CF8 for J2EE running on
JBoss 4.2.2.GA with Java 6, I have created a JNDI datasource for
Oracle 10g in the oracle-ds.xml file. I have configured a CF8
datasource that uses the JNDI resource.
Any query that is NOT using cfqueryparam works quite well.
As soon as cfqueryparam is used, I get an "Error casting an
object of type org.jboss.resource.adapter.jdbc.WrappedConnection
cannot be cast to coldfusion.server.j2ee.sql.JRunConnectionHandle
to an incompatible type.".
The configuration and the exception is pretty much the same
as described in
Problem
description.
This is clearly a CF8 bug and I was wondering if there is any
known workaround for it.

In web.xml making the following entry:
<web-app>
<description>MySQL Test App</description>
<resource-ref>
<description>DB Connection</description>
<res-ref-name>jdbc/test</res-ref-name>
<res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type>
<res-auth>Container</res-auth>
</resource-ref>
</web-app>
Next, add a file jboss-web.xml under WEB-INF/ folder of the web-application. This file should contain entry as:
<jboss-web>
<resource-ref>
<description>DB Connection</description>
<res-ref-name>jdbc/test</res-ref-name>
<res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type>
<jndi-name>java:/jdbc/test</jndi-name>
<res-auth>Container</res-auth>
</resource-ref>
</jboss-web>
Next, in JBOSS_HOME/server/default/deploy folder make a xx-ds.xml file or else, a similiar file can be found in that same folder with the name hsqldb-ds.xml. Make following entries in that xml file:
<datasources>
<local-tx-datasource>
<jndi-name>/jdbc/test</jndi-name>
<type-mapping>MySQL</type-mapping>
<connection-url>jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/shopping_cart</connection-url>
<driver-class>com.mysql.jdbc.Driver</driver-class>
<user-name>root</user-name>
<password>root123</password>
<min-pool-size>1</min-pool-size>
<max-pool-size>5</max-pool-size>
</local-tx-datasource>
This should bind the jndi name.
In our client application, we need to look up as:
Context ctx = new InitialContext();
DataSource ds = (DataSource)ctx.lookup("java:/jdbc/test");
Connection conn = ds.getConnection();
This works perfectly.

Why setting var in CFFUNCTION causes error

As far as my knowledge goes, the BEST practise when setting
local variable inside a CFFUNCTION is to use the word "var" in
front of the variable name, for example: <CFSET var
myVariable="whatever">
I'm doing it now and all I get is an error message saying:
Error invoking CFC name_of_cfc:local variable myVariable on
line 60 must be grouped at the top of the function body!
I'm using CF8 and I need to use cfswitch within the
cffunction, so when I do <cfcase value="SomeValue"><cfset
var myVariable="TheValue"></cfcase> etc I got that error.
When I tested with just CFSET var MyVariable="TheVariable"
with no cfswitch/cfcase I still get that error
when I took out the word "var" from cfset, I have no error, I
put these variables directly after my cfarguments. Does anyone know
why this is happening to me?
I thought if I don't use the "var" word for my variable set
within cffunction there will be possibilities when later on setting
up another variables outside this function and if the name happen
to be the same, will override each other and causing disaster to my
application.
Please help!!

Yes, this is the best practice to make the variable local to
the
function. But you only need to use the var keyword once when
you define
the variable. And you must define the local variables with
the var
keyword at the very beginning of the function body. The only
content
allowed before this happens are the argument definitions,
i.e. the
<cfargument ...> tags.
If you have a variable that you don't need to use, you just
need to
define it with a default and|or dummy value in the beginning
of the
function. Then you can set it's value appropriately later in
the
function when it is required. This is often done with query
tag return
variables.
I.E.
<cffunction name="myQryFunction"...>
<cfargument name="someArgument"...>
<cfset var localQry = "">
<cfquery name="localQry"...>
SQL
</cfquery>
<cfreturn localQery>
</cffunction>
Because of this necessity to define all local variables at
the beginning
of the function, a lot of developers use a standard where
they define a
local structure. They can then just append new keys and
values to this
local structure throughout the function. Personally I don't
see much
advantage to doing this, but to each his|her own.
I.E.
<cffunction name="myQryFunction"...>
<cfargument name="someArgument"...>
<cfset var local = structNew()>
<cfset local.something = "FooBar">
<cfreturn local.something>
</cffunction>

For the mail app specifically, you can't. You can set font size for the system overall in accessiblity (Settings app > General > Accessibility > Large Text), but this will not impact some emails (such as those using graphics).

Dynamic forms using radio buttons, any ideas?

Hello;
I am writting a multi-form section in a web site. I have the
form built up to the point where it sends the email. I have some
issues I am trying to figure out and need some help. First let me
show how this is set up, then the questions:
The set up:
Page 1 personal info
<cfform action="PT2.cfm" method="post"
enctype="application/x-www-form-urlencoded" name="sponsorOrder"
enablecab="no">
all the form fields that need to be filled for contact info
here
<input type="reset" name="Reset" value="Reset">
<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Proceed to Step
2">
</cfform>
PAGE 2:
<cfform action="SENDMAIL.cfm" method="post"
enctype="application/x-www-form-urlencoded" name="sponsorOrder"
enablecab="no">
<input name="Fname" type="hidden"
value="<cfoutput>#form.Fname#</cfoutput>">

<input type="radio" name="sponsor" value="1">
<input type="radio" name="sponsor" value="2">

<input type="reset" name="Reset" value="Reset">
<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit">
</cfform>
SENDMAIL page:
<cfset subject = "Sponsorship Order">
<cfset email = "#form.email#">

<cfmail to="[email protected]"
cc="[email protected]"
from="#form.email#"
subject="Custom Order Request"
server="mail.myserver.com"
port=25
type="HTML">
<font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"
color="##000000" size="2">
<b>Collected information</b><br>
<b>Customer First Name:</b>
#form.Fname#<br>


<cfif "form.sponsor" = "1">
<b>Selection 1:</b> the info they get from
selection 1 here <br>
</cfif>
<cfif "form.sponsor" = "2">
<b>Selection 2:</b>The info that goes with
selection 2 goes here<br>
</cfif>

</cfmail>
<cfinclude template="thankyou.cfm">
THANK YOU PAGE:
Now on this page is where I get lost. I need to bring the
selection from the radio buttons over to here and serve up a button
according to the radio button selected back on page 2. Is this how
I do that? The same as I did in the sendmail?
<cfif "form.sponsor" = "1">
they get this button and info
</cfif>
<cfif "form.sponsor" = "2">
they get this button and info
</cfif>

Those are my questions, as well as this.
On page 2 I need to make it impossible to pass that page
without making a selection. How do I do that with radio buttons?
Can anyone help me?
Thank you.

hi phoenix!
ok, let's see...
your "thank you" page is cfincluded in the "sendmail" page,
so it will
have all the passed form vars available to it, which means
you do not
have to store the radio button selection in the session scope
or
anywhere else...
i think a cfswitch/cfcase construct to check for selected
radio button
will serve you better than lots of cfif/cfelseif/cfelse...
as for preventing submission of page2 without selecting a
radio button
first:
a) pre-select one
b) use client-side javascript to make sure one is selected
(use an
onsubmit event in the form tag or onclick event in the button
- you will
have to change the button type from submit to button, and
change its
name from submit to something else - there are possible
issues with
having a button named submit in your form if you are
suibmitting the
form through js...
c) you could also use server-side cfml to check that a radio
button is
selected but it requires a lot of extra code and changes to
your
forms/pages...

Cfajaxproxy

I am getting coldfusion 8 ERROR using cfajaxproxy:
"The path to the CFC must be specified as a full path, or as a relative path from the current template, without the use of mappings."
"The specified CFC vindexer_server_ver3 could not be found. "
at line 2, in template="C:\ColdFusion8\wwwroot\dei-ideas_org\wwwroot\chapter0-2\vindexer_client.cfm"
Any idea on how to fix this error?
Also, in another thread, someone mentioned turning on "extended error information". How do I turn this on?
FACTS:
I do NOT want to add a CFC mapping using coldfusion administrator because I am on a shared coldfusion hosting site (hostek.com).

I use jrun on my "ColdFusion Server Standard 8,0,1,195765" test server
In my test coldfusion server, I have "/dei-ideas_org" mapped to "C:\ColdFusion8\wwwroot\dei-ideas_org\wwwroot"

Attempting to sort recordset off our iseries

I have a problem that I would appreciate assistance with. I have successfuly created a recordset that pulls data off our iSeries. I have created a table from the recordset, but upon the review of the content of the table by meeting attendees it was suggested that all columns of the table be sortable. In the past I had used a routine (free for the taking from www.easycfm.com), whereby <cfswitch> is used for sorting purposes. The SQL portion of the tutorial follows. However, while it runs against a MS access database, it has problems with the iSeries. In working with the Starquest people today (vendor for StarSQL) we ran a debug trace and it was observed that for this particular SQL statement, the ORDER BY clause is getting cutting off. Note the truncation that occurs right after Order BY in the following trace result.
trace result, "WHERE RTYPE = 8 AND RNCTL <> 'Y' AND RRLDTC > 0 AND RRLDTC <= 20090633 AND RESWT <= 5000 ORDER BY".
I also tried a query of the query. This too failed when I tried the dynamic sort SQL using <cfswitch>. The error that I received upon running that QOQ was that the ORDER BY was too complex.
Does anyone have any insight on how I might address the dynamic sorting of the recordset off the iSeries? Thanks!
Example SQL that I used:
<cfquery name="name went here" datasource="datasource went here">
SELECT *
FROM Table
ORDER BY
<cfswitch expression="#sort#">
<cfcase value="1">Field1</cfcase>
<cfcase value="2">Field1 desc</cfcase>
<cfcase value="3">Field2</cfcase>
<cfcase value="4">Field2 desc</cfcase>
</cfswitch>
</cfquery>

The datasource type really has nothing to do with how ColdFusion generates that sql string. ColdFusion first evaluates the cfswitch/cfcase statements, then sends the final sql string to the chosen datasource. So it produces the same string no matter the datasource type.
What is more likely is that your #sort# value did not match any of the cfcase values. Since there is no default case, nothing is added to the ORDER BY, making it seem like the statement was truncated.

Cfschedule run monday trhough fri. enclude holidays

Hello
Is this possible to set up like this? It looks like the variables within cfschedule are specific.
Thanks!

There are CFCs on cflib.org that can check to see if a date is a holiday, or not. Get the ones for the holidays you wish to exclude, and give that a shot. The idea of using a conditional on the page is (IMHO) a good idea.. let the scheduler run it, and let the file check for holiday status.
Although, personally, I'd use a CFSWITCH/CFCASE statement instead of a CFIF.

Bug in PDF generation with Report Builder CF8

Hello
there is a bug in the calculation of the left margin of a
page.
I upgraded from MX 7.02 to CF8. My "old" Reports worked fine,
but when I export them to PDF an print them the left margin is
different.
I'm using metric settings in the Report Builder. I created a
new Report with Left Margin 2 cm and a single Field with the left
Property = 1 cm (0.9879 cm). The printed paper with these poperties
where fine. I could measure appoximatly 3cm . But if I use Report
Left Margin = 1.27 cm and Field left Property = 0.35cm. The left
margin of the printed paper is only 1.1cm.
So it depends on the choosen Values of report left margin and
the left property of a field.
Does anybody else have the same problem?

I found this posting as I have now "rediscovered" this issue. I came to the same conclusion - edit ALT TEXT for every image.
However, I think it is confusing that these paths of image file are not considered Personal Information that can be removed using the Inspect Document feature (I tried - was not successful). The list of things to be removed using this wizard is quite extensive
- and some of them less visible than these file paths.
It would be interesting to know if this is going to change with future updates of Word. Why is an ALT TEXT included at all per default? I think using the file path in ALT TEXT should be made optional. Is there a way to turn off this default embedding of
the full path?
As the OP I also used Office 2013 on Windows 7 64bit.

Help with Possible Mask Bug in CF8

When letting a user edit their PRICE field at my website, I
populate the field with the VALUE attribute (as seen below) using a
MASK:
<CFINPUT TYPE="TEXT" NAME="price" VALUE="#price#" SIZE="7"
MAXLENGTH="7" MASK="9999999">Enter your price
<B>without</B> decimals, cents, or dollar signs.
Examples: 45, 1, 17900.
However, when pulling the number from the database, CF8 will
add trailing zeros to the number!!!!
For example: if #price# equals 25, the value populated in the
field is 2500000!!!
Is this a bug? When I reamove the mask, it works fine. It's
not doing this on my CF 4.5 (installed on my own server). I am
using a paid providers' CF8.
If it is a bug, how would I fix this and how do you report a
bug? This is the 2nd one I found using CF8 (the other was
Validate="integer" actually allows "$" as an integer ...also "$$$"
and "$454$3$$3$", etc.)

Is there a bug in CF8 cfpdf ?

Further to my random question yesterday about instantiation of objects - I believe I've actually tracked my problem down to a problem with the <cfpdf> tag on CF8 - When I run certain PDF's through the following code
<cfpdf action="processddx" ddxfile="#ddxDir#/readPDF.ddx" inputfiles="#inputStruct#" outputfiles="#outputStruct#" name="ddxVar">
whilst on CF8 I get the following in the dump structure
OUT1
failed: PDFM_S20005: Encountered internal error while processing document "DOC1".
Whereas if I run the same file through CF9 - It works perfectly- we aren't moving to CF9 on the production server for a while yet so I need to find out if there is a genuine bug and/or there is a fix available for it as it's causing me some major problems
I've tried looking for the error message online but can't find it referenced anywhere

I know there was at least one issue with the cfpdf/ddx functionality in Coldfusion 8. So, I would upgrade to CF8.0.1 and install the latest cumulative hot fix.

CF8 cfdocument tag has a few new bugs

This discusses two new bugs in CF8 having to do with footers
in cfdocument.
***FIRST BUG***
With CFMX7, I could define a new footer by putting a new
<cfdocumentitem type="footer"> tag in each cfdocumentsection
of my pdf report. Each could have a different string, e.g., so that
the footer could tell the reader which chapter she is reading. This
does not work in CF8. The chapter name that appears on all pages is
the one defined in the last <cfdocumentitem type="footer">
tag in the cfdocument. Now only the page number changes
dynamically. Sample code:
<cfdocument format="pdf" unit="in" pagetype="letter"
marginbottom="0.8" marginleft="1" marginright="1"
margintop="0.8"
orientation="portrait" fontembed="yes" overwrite="yes"
filename="pdfbugdemo2.pdf" pageheight="11" pagewidth="8.5"
scale="100">
<cfdocumentsection>
<cfset footerContent="1. Introduction">
<cfdocumentitem type="footer">
<div style="float: left;">
<cfoutput>#footerContent#</cfoutput>
</div>
<div style="float: right;">
<cfoutput>#cfdocument.currentpagenumber#</cfoutput>
</div>
</cfdocumentitem>
<h1>Introduction</h1>
</cfdocumentsection>
<cfdocumentsection>
<cfset footerContent="2. Body of Document">
<cfdocumentitem type="footer">
<div style="float: left;">
<cfoutput>#footerContent#</cfoutput>
</div>
<div style="float: right;">
<cfoutput>#cfdocument.currentpagenumber#</cfoutput>
</div>
</cfdocumentitem>
<h1>Body of Document</h1>
</cfdocumentsection>
</cfdocument>
*** SECOND BUG ***
In CF8, you cannot cfinclude the same template multiple times
in a given template - you get an error (at least sometimes). A
workaround is to make multiple copies of the template, each with a
different name. This was not necessary in CFMX7. Sample code:
<cfdocument format="pdf" unit="in" pagetype="letter"
marginbottom="0.8" marginleft="1" marginright="1"
margintop="0.8"
orientation="portrait" fontembed="yes" overwrite="yes"
filename="pdfbugdemo2.pdf" pageheight="11" pagewidth="8.5"
scale="100">
<cfdocumentsection>
<cfset footerContent="1. Introduction">
<cfinclude template="pdfbugfooter.cfm">
<h1>Introduction</h1>
</cfdocumentsection>
<cfdocumentsection>
<cfset footerContent="2. Body of Document">
<cfinclude template="pdfbugfooter.cfm">
<h1>Body of Document</h1>
</cfdocumentsection>
</cfdocument>
where pdfbugfooter.cfm is:
<cfdocumentitem type="footer">
<div style="float: left;">
<cfoutput>#footerContent#</cfoutput>
</div>
<div style="float: right;">
<cfoutput>#cfdocument.currentpagenumber#</cfoutput>
</div>
</cfdocumentitem>

re: If you claim didn't say that,
No "if" about it - I made no such claim and never would -
thats just you
talking gibberish. Who in their right mind would say, or even
suggest, that
forums are not helpful. The only reason a forum exists in the
first place is
to be helpful!
re: So what was your actual intention in the first place?
Not sure you would undertsand, you seem to struggle to follow
along. But
just a hint for you - the forum posts, or quantity thereof,
have been used
by several people here, and by editors at sites such as
sitepoint.com, as a
metric to use to gague interest and activity. A metric only
useful when
taken in context with other pointers (job market, book
market, number of
classes still running, so on and so forth)
Again, nobody has ever said forums are not useful or helpful
- I suspect you
knew that much but felt the need to throw some nonsense about
in an attempt
at an argument - failed didn't it?
RE: Maybe they realized Ben Forta writes such a good books,
they felt
ashamed? :-)
The O'Reilly audience is typically seasoned developers, hard
core coders.
Their books are a tough read for beginners and O'Reilly
delibertately do not
cater to this audeince with many of their titles. And to put
it bluntly, the
main bunch of people to ditch CF early on were these "hard
core" types. I
belive this as the only CF developers I know are actually
more "designers"
than developers - I know of no professional coder/developers
that would
touch CF. Thats just my personal observation, btw.
re: From what I read, people are telling I'm right.
Are you crazy? They are all, at least 95%, in agreemenst that
Tim Buntel
needs to pick up the marketing act before CF dies. Seriously,
you do seem to
struggle to follow along at times - suggest you actually
read.
re: CF has always been "dead" in many places.
How can you always be dead, doesn't make sense! You have to
have lived in
order to die. There used to be hundreds of cf jobs advertised
here in
Australia every day, literally every day. Now you may see 3
or 4 each week -
mostly for migrating old cf sites to new asp.net or java
sites. And there is
no longer any CF classes advetised or held in nearly all
states - they
literally shut them down. I'm confident enough that the
comment "CF is dead"
is accurate.
r: Maybe you should be answering those questions, since you
seem to know
they're true, and I haven't heard of any such things.
I know the answers to all of those questions - becuase CF is
dying. If CF
were living, then none of those questions would have been
asked.
re: So you know they're not investing in one?
Yes, I know that. They will never spend that kind fo money on
coldfusion -
it just wouldn't be vaible for them. We're darned lucky that
still have
small team of enginners to write tags around the java
libraries and release
new versions. They are not actually going to start
"innovating" with CF in a
market like this - and I don't blame them.
