• Racing To Show Asynchronous Report-Generation Results With CFThread In Lucee CFML 5.3.6.61

  Posted on Oct 2, 2020 at 8:20 AM

  Awesome trick heh? you beat me to blogging about this one.... One thing you have to be careful about is error handling inside the thread, you need to manually catch and handle any errors, as any normal error handling/reporting won't be triggered within a thread. Any errors inside a thread ar... read more »

  I think from memory it's a proportion of available freespace. Actually it's hardwired. So that's a bug / regression I'd like these all to be configurable https://luceeserver.atlassian.net/browse/LDEV-2418... read more »

  Odd, there's actually an hourly task which checks the temp folder and purges if it gets to big? You see it's output if you set the log level for application.log to info... read more »

  Posted on Jun 23, 2020 at 7:25 AM

  Thanks Ben, back at ya! As senior devs, it's always fun to fix / improve things as we have the knowledge to do it, hopefully making the lives of other cfml developers easier! I've been working on and with Lucee for a years now, it's great that you're also involved and sharing your love for... read more »

• Struct Iteration With CFLoop Exposes Both Key And Value In Lucee CFML 5.3.6.61

  Posted on Jun 23, 2020 at 5:59 AM

  it's a bit quirky... you can use item or index for the key, unless both are defined https://trycf.com/gist/6774d6a30280941505546f4c930743ad/lucee5?theme=monokai I have updated the Lucee docs to document this https://github.com/lucee/lucee-docs/pull/879 https://docs.lucee.org/re... read more »

• Returning CFQuery / Query Results As Structs In Lucee 5.3.6.61

  Posted on Jun 18, 2020 at 8:29 AM

  ah, the array for cfqueryparam is a nice trick, I just updated the Lucee docs to reflect this https://github.com/lucee/lucee-docs/pull/877 https://docs.lucee.org/reference/tags/queryparam.html there is also some newish support for indexed queries, since 5.3.4.23 https://docs.lucee... read more »

• Built-In Functions And Member-Methods Return Different Data Types In Lucee CFML 5.3.5.92

  Posted on Apr 16, 2020 at 7:48 AM

  but you'll need to compile and run your own version of lucee to test / see those values.... it's fine to edit those files without compiling, the automatic CI process after you file a pull request will do a build Docs reads them from directly from the version of Lucee you're running. using ... read more »

• Zipping Image Archives With DEFLATE And STORE Compression Methods In Lucee CFML 5.2.9.31

  Posted on Apr 4, 2020 at 9:36 AM

  You can also create tar archives using Lucee's compress() function, but the bundled version of apache commons compress, 1.9 from 2016 is a bit old and misses out on some of the improvements in the last 4 years. https://docs.lucee.org/reference/functions/compress.html https://github.co... read more »

  Posted on Dec 19, 2019 at 6:22 AM

  interesting (and annoying!) looking at the source, it seems to be storing that value in the pageContext for some reason? it then gets pulled out and then reset to "" in setErrorvariable https://github.com/lucee/Lucee/blob/5.3/core/src/main/java/lucee/runtime/tag/Execute.java#L1... read more »
