OT: Oracle Streams

mike.mcmona...@ed.ac.uk (MCMONAGLE Michael) — Fri, 12 Dec 2009 15:20:10 UT

Hi,

Bit of a long-shot this one (and nowt to do with CF), but has anyone implemented Oracle Streams?? Having a few issues and there really very little in the way of helpful documentation anywhere.

Flex for CF Developers BYOL

andy.al...@gmail.com (Andy Allan) — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 08:15:38 UT

Hi Folks,

In addition to running the CF9 BYOL workshops, I've also been
considering running some "Flex for CFers BYOL workshops".

Would there be interest in these too?

CF9

andy.al...@gmail.com (Andy Allan) — Thu, 11 Nov 2009 14:14:50 UT

Has anyone upgraded to CF9 yet?
If so, did you buy from Adobe.com, an online store like Amazon,
through a reseller like Fuzzy Orange, or did you have maintenance?
Does everyone know you can get maintenance with ColdFusion?
Maintenance comes in two forms:
2 year Maintenance
Platinum support (annual)
Both entitle you to free upgrades during the maintenance period.

CF Hands on Workshop

andy.al...@gmail.com (Andy Allan) — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 16:47:17 UT

Would anyone be interested in a hands on workshop covering CF9?
Basically a Bring Your Own Laptop (BYOL).
No 1 hour sessions, I'm talking at least a full day of working on some
of the new CF9 features.
This would most likely be in Glasgow or Edinburgh. If there's enough
interest in Aberdeen (I'd need a minimum of 7 people) then we can also

Hope everyone's looking forward to the weekend. I certainly am!

I asked a few weeks ago if anyone had seen a coldfusion database query tool.
I found a plugin for ExtJS which basically creates the WHERE statement from
the choices you make (CherryExt). I've ported the backend code to Coldfusion

Hey guys,

I'm looking for some decent CF hosting (cheap is good). I'd prefer somewhere that offers a reseller account for hosting multiple sites.

storing a query in the Application scope ...is this a bad thing?

martinwjo...@aol.com (Martin) — Tue, 09 Sep 2009 11:34:00 UT

Bottom line - I have a simple "select all" query that returns about 30
rows of simple data and doesn't really change very often.
However ...it does this by pulling the results from other queries that
read data from different XML datasets and joining them together into a
more useful object.
This query gets called a LOT - and I mean a LOT - so to improve

Hi Folks,

As someone mentioned a while back, launching CF9 on 9/9/9 would make great
marketing sense. So who thinks it will happen on Wednesday?

From the initial presentations, I was more interested in ColdFusion Builder
than CF9.
The big new feature they were pushing for CF9 was the ORM (Hibernate), and I
