• Passing Arrays By Reference In ColdFusion - SWEEET!

  @Steve, Every time you pass a ColdFusion Array into a function, it effectively Duplicate()s it -- so, if you pass the data more than once, it's already less efficient to use a ColdFusion Array vs. a Java ArrayList. Depending on what you're doing with the Array(s), optimizing up front... read more »

  @Steve, Try this - I didn't test it. <cfscript> var Bounds1 = 10; var Bounds2 = 20; var i = 1; var j = 1; var ArrayListProxy = CreateObject('java', 'ja... read more »

  I did end up resolving my issue with that error post above -- Error Messages: Object of type class coldfusion.runtime.java.JavaProxy cannot be used as an array. I don't remember what I ended up doing to fix it but I do have some recent insight. I started playing around with making my own JARs for... read more »

• My First ColdFusion 8 CFFTP Experience - Rocky But Triumphant

  Perhaps this has been mentioned before on your blog but I didn't have luck Googling for it. I just resolved an issue that's pretty trivial but misleading and figured I'd put it here so someone else can find the solution. So, I had FTP code written that worked perfectly fine. I know I hadn't... read more »

  Hmm... in ColdFusion 8.01, I get this error when I try to do an ArrayLen() on it: Error Messages: Object of type class coldfusion.runtime.java.JavaProxy cannot be used as an array. Any ideas?... read more »

• ColdFusion Component Wrapper For POI To Read And Write Excel Files

  Posted on Mar 10, 2008 at 3:40 PM

  @Ben I was kind of figuring they didn't serve a purpose but I wanted to double-check before deleting them from code (to speed up processing a bit) as I don't think they'll serve a purpose for my needs (at least, at the moment). Thanks for the prompt response.... read more »

• ColdFusion Component Wrapper For POI To Read And Write Excel Files

  Posted on Mar 10, 2008 at 3:11 PM

  What's the difference between min column count and max column count? I see in your dump you have 3 and 3. I have a test Excel file that's showing 0 and 4. I have 4 columns.... read more »

• ColdFusion POIUtility.cfc Updates And Bug Fixes

  Posted on Feb 20, 2008 at 1:56 PM

  @Ben's response, I'm aware it becomes compiled and all formatting essentially becomes moot to speed/efficiency after the first access. That is not the reason for formatting, however. As mentioned, I want it in a more manageable form. My reason for caring what the source looks like is... read more »

• ColdFusion POIUtility.cfc Updates And Bug Fixes

  Posted on Feb 20, 2008 at 1:05 PM

  Ya know... this thing works great... except, two things. It throws errors about ColumnList when you call WriteExcel() which I can fix/workaround... and the formatting is HEINOUS. So far I've brought it down from 1910 lines to 1081 lines and I'm still formatting this so it's in a more manageable f... read more »
