ColdFusion Builder Preference Keys for FTP Sync

I was wondering if anyone has been able to setup a customer preference key for synchronize -> Upload in ColdFusion Builder? I use this all the time and it works fine...it is just several clicks to get 'er done. I would love to simply hit a combo of keys to upload the currently active file.
Thoughts?

I agree. The CF Documentation for both my installs using the standalone CF Builder 3 fail to display any of the Coldfusion documentation. It shows up in the contents, but fails when I pick any of the available references. I've posted and asked others and do not get a response.
This forum is not monitored. You can see that on the main page where it shows articles about the beta of CF Builder 3.

Significance of sync key for a Sync Bo

Hi,
What is meant by the sync Key in MI Client application. How is it used to identify a particular sync BO instance.
Is it the same as that of the key field selected in the syncbo mapping.
If the syncbo has multiple key fields what would be the sync key in the application
Regards
Raja Sekhar

Hi Raja,
<<<1>>>
Anyway u will not have any difficulty to find out the SyncKey. It is coming as the first field of the SyncBO instance ,whether it is an item instance or header instance.
just go throught this..
For modifying one syncbo instance ,
in the meRepMeta.xml file corresponding to that SyncBo , allowModify="true".This must be satisfied.
For modifying one syncbo instance , u can do it like described below..
Here u must need the sync key of the header .u have to find out this sync key using one of the standard methods(first entry of a row is sync key of that sync bo instance).
Then to modify the header instance .
1) u can use the standard method modifyRowInDB . here the input parameters are SyncBo name , Sync Key , Value and index of the Column. But the limitation of this method is ,if u have more than one field to modify , then u have to use this method inside the loop. In this method , we are explicitely calling the commit() method . So during looping if one of the modification fails for particular sync bo instance , then we have to manually do the rollback for the previous transactions.
we can change the method like this..
public void modifyHeaderOfSyncBo(String syncBoName,String syncKey,String headerFieldNames[],String headerFieldValues[])throws SmartSyncException, PersistenceException
SyncBo syncBo = getSyncBoInstance(syncBoName, syncKey);
SmartSyncTransactionManager transactionManager;
 transactionManager = dataFacade.getSmartSyncTransactionManager();
 if (!transactionManager.isTransactionStarted())
 transactionManager.beginTransaction();
 for (int c = 0; c < headerFieldNames.length; c++) {
 setHeaderFieldValue(syncBo, headerFieldNames[c], headerFieldValues[c]);
//Commit the transaction
transactionManager.commit();
To modify the Item Instance
In two ways
1) If we know the sync key of the header and there is only one item instance.
Here using the header Sync key , we have to find out the SyncBo instance -->> then find out the item instance / instances
-->> then modify the item.
public void modifyItemOfSyncBo(String syncBoName,String headerSyncKey,String itemName,String itemFieldNames[],String itemFieldValues[])throws SmartSyncException, PersistenceException
SyncBo syncBo = getSyncBoInstance(syncBoName, headerSyncKey);
Row [] itemRows = getItemInstances(syncBo,itemName);//this is the standard method.
// itemRows[0] is the one and only item instance
SyncBoDescriptor sbd =
 descriptorFacade.getSyncBoDescriptor(syncBoName);
RowDescriptor rd = sbd.getRowDescriptor(itemName);
SmartSyncTransactionManager transactionManager;
 transactionManager = dataFacade.getSmartSyncTransactionManager();
 if (!transactionManager.isTransactionStarted())
 transactionManager.beginTransaction();
 for (int c = 0; c < itemFieldNames.length; c++) {
 FieldDescriptor fdDesc = rd.getFieldDescriptor(itemFieldNames[c]);
 setItemFieldValue(fdDesc, itemRow[0], itemFieldValues); // this method is given below
 transactionManager.commit();
2) If we know the Sync key of the item instance.
 Here what u have to do is find out the particular sync bo item instance and then modify as mentioned above.
Here we know the Sync Key of the item instance ,so here we will get the exact item row instance.So after retrieving the item row instance just modify this item row instance with new values as mentioned above.
This method is for setting values in item instance.Just follow this method
 private void setItemFieldValue(FieldDescriptor fd, Row item, Object value)
 throws SmartSyncException, PersistenceException {
 BasisFieldType bft = fd.getFieldType();
 // integer oprator
 if (bft == BasisFieldType.N) {
 NumericField nf = item.getNumericField(fd);
 if (nf != null) {
 BigInteger ii = new BigInteger(value.toString());
 // nf.setValue(ii);
 item.setFieldValue(fd, ii);
 // charactor operator
 if (bft == BasisFieldType.C) {
 CharacterField cf = item.getCharacterField(fd);
 if (cf != null) {
 // cf.setValue(newValuestoString());
 item.setFieldValue(fd, value);
 // decimal operator
 if (bft == BasisFieldType.P) {
 DecimalField df = item.getDecimalField(fd);
 if (df != null) {
 if (value.equals(""))
 value = "0";
 BigDecimal bd = new BigDecimal(value.toString());
 // df.setValue(bd);
 item.setFieldValue(fd, bd);
 if (bft == BasisFieldType.D) {
 DateField df = item.getDateField(fd);
 if (df != null) {
 if (value.equals("")) {
 Date syDatum = new Date(System.currentTimeMillis());
 value = syDatum.toString();
 Date dat = Date.valueOf(value.toString());
 item.setFieldValue(fd, dat);
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
2. How is the syncbo organized in the mobile device. What is the significance of rows?
Does each row represent one instance of syncbo.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Ur understanding is correct. Data is organized in the form of header and item.
One Header instance can have 0 , one or more item instances.
I dont know , how exactly that link is maintained in bw HEADER and ITEM instance. Because i could see only this SYNC_KEY field in the instances.
I think it might be handled by the SmartSync Framework itself.
<<<<<<
For example each work order would be a row in the work order syncbo.
The fields declared in the getlist bapi wud be part of header and fields in the Getdetail bapi be the items.
>>>>>>
Number of rows returned by the GETLIST BAPI Wrapper actually represents the HEADER instances in the SmartSync.
We may have 0 , one or more ITEM instances for particular HEADER instance.
(During Sync , First GETLIST collects all HEADER instances . Then looping though each HEADER instance , corresponding GETDETAIL is executed).
<<<<<<
if Getdetail bapi consists of fields from different tables, how are these mapped to the item.
>>>>>>
I didnt get ur question exactly.
Anyway... ,,
For creating ITEM tables for GETDETAIL , we have to DEFINE one structure , which contain the fields from all tables.
This structure is including as a TABLE parameter of ur GETDETAIL Wrapper. And u will be filling values in these fields that are present in ur STRUCTURE which is included as a TABLE param .
While Creating SncBOs using SyncBO Builder , u are mapping ur required fields. Only these fields are visible in the client device. Depending upon the
ugage (i meant whether CREATE Wrapper , MODIFY , DELETE ) , u can create , modify and Delete these instances.
Refer these links also .. I have already given some sample codes in these forums.... refer these .. In the generated code itself , some null pointer exceptions are not handled.
In this sample code , that is handled..

I do not have my sync key for Firefox Sync how do I recover it?

I am trying to set up Firefox Sync on a new pc and it is asking for my sync key which I do not have. Is there a way to reset or recover it?

I can't inspect the sync key on the computer where I first installed sync, becaause the hard drive died and I had to install Linux instead of Windows. I was able to save my user data; what folder would it be in? Can I figure it out from recovering a profile?

ColdFusion Builder Help System

This question was posted in response to the following article: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/ColdFusionBuilder/Using/WS0ef8c004658c1089-1a5748a01250bd15dfa -8000.html

To use context-sensitive Help on Mac OS, set a keyboard shortcut to the Dynamic Help command. To specify a keyboard shortcut for the Dynamic Help command, do the following:
Select Adobe ColdFusion Builder > Preferences.
In the tree view, select General > Keys.
Select the Dynamic Help command.
Press the key binding combination that you want to set. For example, to enter CtrlShift1, press and hold the keys Ctrl and Shift and then press 1. A plus sign between the keys indicates that you must press the keys in succession.
This is what you have mentioned above, but it's not working like the functionality as we get in windows with F1 short key.

Keyboard shortcut list for ColdFusion Builder

I really liked the keyboard shortcuts in Builder 2.0, it helps me improve my productivity. But, there are times when I forget the keyboard shortcut and I will have to go to the preference page to learn the shortcut. Is there a document that can list all the keyboard shortcuts. I just want to print them and keep it handy. Any help?

Elizabeth,
I had blogged about ColdFusion Builder 2 shortcuts some time back:

My iPhone is asking me for a "sync key". I put in my secret phrase but it didn't work. What do I do?

On the directions emailed to me, it said to enter my account name, password and secret phrase when I launched the Firefox Home app. But when I launch it it asks me for my account name, password and a "sync key". I put in my secret phrase and it didn't work. What do I put in for my "Sync Key"?

Can I install Coldfusion Builder as a plugin for Flash Builder?

I already have a licensed copy of Flash Builder 4.x installed, trying to install ColdFusion Builder as a plugin for Flash Builder. When I installed CFB, I selected install as a eclipse plugin and entered the path to the FB directory. Now I can't figure out how to invoke/add the CFB plugin in FB..
Thanks in advance

You should have uninstalled rather than simply deleting CFB 2 plugins manually .
Please do the following to fix it now. (If you have used Uninstaller to uninstall that would have cleaned all these things ):
Take a backup and delete the file: /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Uninstall/{b8c666c3-1efd-11b2-bf3c-e04be4b2b610}.db
And you will be able to install CFB as plugin to Eclipse now.
Thanks,

I have two AppleID's. Can I set up a new Apple ID just for document syncing in iCloud? How?

I have two AppleID's. Both use known email addresses. I need absolute security for documents. Can I set up a new Apple ID just for document syncing in iCloud? How?

Sorry, I did not mean to imply that security was non-existant or horrible, just it is online, so no absolutes.
iCloud is really not useful, IMO, for collaborating as only you or your AppleID enabled devices can access the files.
I have multiple online storage accounts with the common free services, but my most used is www.box.net. Many document apps will readily support it, and even if one does not, you can use the box.net app itself to access files, then open them in the app usually. And you can share your online folders, with reasonable controls on access to keep control of who can see (and upload or download) what.
A lot of people I know use dropbox as well, but they are usually using paid accounts (often their company sets one up for them to use to exchange files with clients) and I don't know how much better is the security on a paid dropbox account versus a free one. I suspect the free ones are on a par with box.net.
You could also use add security by using some sort of PGP or other encryption tools to encrypt files put up on the shared folder(s). You'd exchange public keys with your colleagues so they could decrypt those files once they download them. That may be overkill for many peoples needs though.
Another option, if you have an online hosting account, is to get one that offers SFTP access and use that for sharing files (the downside of that is having to distribute the password to colleagues, so you could loose control of it if one of them is careless or thoughtless with it). It seems more and more document-type apps for iOS are supporting generic FTP and SFTP as well as the popular free online storage solutions.

ColdFusion Builder 3 Settings Reset on Restart

I've downloaded the ColdFusion Builder 3 trial and am experiencing some odd and very annoying behavior.
I've customized some code editor text font and color settings. I've added an entry to the CF Servers panel for an instance of ColdFusion 10 running inside a VMWare virtual server on my laptop.
When I restart Eclipse, all the code customizations I've made are reverted back to the default install settings and the entry in my CF Servers panel is gone.
I've been an IntelliJ user for well over a year, but in doing much more cfscript-based development the CF Plugin for IntelliJ is proving to be a hindrance so I thought I'd give CFB 3 a try and see if there were any improvements over CFB 2. However, I can't take this kind of behavior. Hopefully someone can give me a setting or someone else has seen this before and can give me an idea of where to start looking.
I have CF Builder installed as a plugin into Eclipse Kepler 64-bit for Mac. I added the CF Builder update site and have updated to CF Builder 3.0.0.290000. I also previously installed as the standalone version with no additional plugins and experienced the same behavior.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
Dan

Milan...
My apologies for taking so long to get back to this. I just did some testing tonight of your instructions as well as those by Kaif above.
Firstly, I installed ColdFusion 10 locally on my Mac. I added the local server to the CF Servers panel successfully. After restarting Eclipse, the localhost entry remained in the CF Server panel.
Secondly, I followed your instructions to make a new profile and make my font/coloring customizations in it. I restarted Eclipse and my font and color selections were maintained (through 3 restarts). I noted that my newly created profile was selected in Preferences after each restart.
I then added a remote CF 10 server to the CF Servers panel successfully (as noted by the panel telling me that the server was running and being able to launch the CF Admin from within Eclipse). At this point there were 2 entries in my CF Server panel--localhost and the one remote server that lives inside my VM. I restarted Eclipse and when it came back up, only the localhost server remained. I might add that the VM has ColdFusion 10 installed in "multi-instance" mode and that the remote server instance that I added to the CF Servers panel was one of 4 CF instances configured and running inside the VM.
All the while, my font and color customizations have remained the way I set them.
So, it appears as though we're down to just one bug relating to remote server registrations in the CF Servers panel.
I saw that another user was reporting something similar in this thread: ColdFusion Builder 3 RDS and Remove Server settings reset on each restart so apparently it's not just me.
Thanks to you and everyone else for all the ideas and troubleshooting help thus far. At least at this point I think I might be able to use this for day-to-day coding, even though I really want the remote server system to work correctly so I can use the step debugger feature again.

ColdFusion Builder 3 Mac Eclipse Plugin

I have been trying numerous ways to install CFBuilder 3 Trial into Eclipse 4.2.2 on Mac (Yosemite) and just cannot get CFBuilder to load the CF Perspective. I have tried in various Eclipse versions, and in multiple orders including just installing CFBuilder Trial Edition without in a clean 4.2.2 Eclipse from clean CF install (plugin only, but tried also installing full CFBuilder app both before and after plugin installation, rebooting between each install) and new workspace.
My ultimate goal is to also install Flash Builder 4.7 into the same Eclipse app, but am starting with CFBuilder since Flash Builder installs successfully. Note that this question is ONLY for the ColdFusion Builder 3 installation alone without Flash Builder installed on the machine.
Bottom line: I just cannot get CFBuilder 3 to load into Eclipse 4.2.2 and show the CF Perspective even though it appears to be a successful plugin install; I am starting Eclipse either from both the plugin directory's shortcut and from the eclipse app itself - neither work.
Does anyone have a clue whether this can be done on a Mac?

Use Subversion with Coldfusion Builder Beta

Hi,
I run Coldfusion 9 Beta, Coldfusion Builder Beta under Windows7. Also installed Subversion/tortoise.
How can I use Subversion within CF Builder? If I right click a projects and choose Team->Share project,I get a window prompting me to select a repository type. Nothing is listed in the white space below and I cannot add any repository types. Under Preferences->Team I have options "File Content", "Ignored Resources" and "Models". Cannot choose here for a version system (CVS/Subversion) as in Eclipse with Subclipse installed. Do I have to download Subclipse and add it to CFBuilder manually?
Thanks for any tips,
Marc

What is very strange is that I have been using the CF Builder Beta for awhile now and it has always had repository types listed. I have been working with VSS for my repository. However I am having the same issue since I installed CF Builder Beta 2. I have no options for repository type. Any ideas what happened to this feature?
Sincerely,
Braden
