Download CFBuilder 2 ide_config XML Schema (XSD)

Couldn’t find any XML Schema for the CFBuilder 2 extension file ide_config.xml, so I decided to create one myself during Christmas. Why? Well a good XML Schema provides code assist and inside within Eclipse, which means faster coding and more important, less coding errors.

Don’t know why Adobe didn’t provide us with a XSD though, or did they ...?

Anyways, below a video which shows code assist within Eclipse incase you didn’t get the picture yet. I’m using the XML Editor of Eclipse, so didn’t test the one from Adobe/Aptana.

CFBuilder XML Schema - Eclipse Code Assist

Ready to Rumble? Setting it all up is pretty easy:

Download the zip which contains the XSD file (updated);
Copy the ide_config.xsd file to the folder where your ide_config.xml lives;
Replace the application xml tag with the code snippet below;
(Re)open your ide_config.xml file;
Ready, you can now press CTRL+SPACE for code assist.

   1: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>   2: <application xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="ide_config.xsd"   3:     xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">

Convert RTF to Plain TEXT....Java Swing rescue

You want to convert RTF to plain text? Here's the code:

<cffunction name="getPlainTextFromRichText" access="public" returntype="string" output="false">
    <cfargument name="richText" type="string" required="true">
    <cfscript>
        var RTFEditorKit = CreateObject("java","javax.swing.text.rtf.RTFEditorKit").init();
        var styledDocument = CreateObject("java","javax.swing.text.DefaultStyledDocument").init();
        var reader = CreateObject("java","java.io.StringReader").init(arguments.richText);

        RTFEditorKit.read(reader,styledDocument,0);
        return styledDocument.getText(0,styledDocument.getLength());
    </cfscript>
</cffunction>

If you know a better solution, please let me know...

....and to strip HTML tags and let Java do the regex..:

<cffunction name="getPlainTextFromHTML" access="public" returntype="string" output="false">
    <cfargument name="html" type="string" required="true">
    <cfscript>
        var HTMLEditorKit = CreateObject("java","javax.swing.text.html.HTMLEditorKit").init();
        var styledDocument = CreateObject("java","javax.swing.text.html.HTMLDocument").init();
        var reader = CreateObject("java","java.io.StringReader").init(arguments.html);

        HTMLEditorKit.read(reader,styledDocument,0);
        return styledDocument.getText(0,styledDocument.getLength());
    </cfscript>
</cffunction>

What do you think...? MySQL Toad

I just came across Toad for MySQL

Please let me know if you think it's worth a try and if it's a good replacement for MySQL WorkBench (which contains more bugs after every update!)

WHOIS your Daddy?

Posted At : February 8, 2009 5:46 PM | Posted By : Ernst van der Linden

I was playing around with querying a whois server. Actually I didn't know it was that easy...

Here's the code:

<cffunction name="getWhoisData" access="public" returntype="string" hint="I return data from a whois server">
    <cfargument name="whoisQuery" type="string" required="true" hint="e.g. 'domain microsoft' or '?' to show whois server help-commands">
    <cfargument name="whoisServer" type="string" required="false" hint="e.g. whois.ripe.net. Default server is whois.internic.net">

    <cfscript>
        var whoisData = '';
        var whoisClient = createObject("java","org.apache.commons.net.WhoisClient");

        // use default whois server?
        if ( not isDefined("arguments.whoisServer") ){
            arguments.whoisServer = whoisClient.DEFAULT_HOST;
        }

        try {
            whoisClient.connect(arguments.whoisServer);
            whoisData = whoisClient.query(arguments.whoisQuery);
            whoisClient.disconnect();
        } catch (Any exception) {
            whoisData = exception.message;
        }

        return whoisData;
    </cfscript>
</cffunction>

Some examples:

<cfoutput>
    <h1>? [whois.internic.net]</h1>
    <pre>#getWhoisData('?')#</pre>
    <h1>domain microsoft.com [whois.internic.net]</h1>
    <pre>#getWhoisData('domain microsoft.com')#</pre>
    <h1>=microsoft.com [whois.internic.net]</h1>
    <pre>#getWhoisData('=microsoft.com')#</pre>
    <h1>registrar TUCOWS INC. [whois.internic.net]</h1>
    <pre>#getWhoisData('registrar TUCOWS INC.')#</pre>
    <h1>-G -B 192.113.224.88 [whois.ripe.net]</h1>
    <pre>#getWhoisData('-G -B 192.113.224.88','whois.ripe.net')#</pre>
</cfoutput>

Ant + Subversion - How to list revision numbers

Posted At : September 22, 2008 10:52 PM | Posted By : Ernst van der Linden
Related Categories: Server Side

Today I needed a way to list all revision numbers of a repository.

I came up with the following solution:

Notes:
- svnant required;
- subversion called from command line.

<project name="buildexample" basedir="." default="svn.revisions">

    
    <import file="svnant.xml"/>

    
    <property name="tempDir" value="C:\\DATA\\TEMP\\${ant.project.name}" />

    
    <property name="svn.url" value="YOUR REPO URL HERE" />

    <target name="prepare">
        
<mkdir dir="${tempDir}" />
    </target>

    
    <target name="svn.revisions" description="Sets property: svn.revisions" depends="prepare">

        
        <exec executable="svn" outputproperty="svnlog.out" output="${tempDir}\\log.xml" >
            <arg line="log --xml -v ${svn.url}" />
        </exec>
        <xmlproperty file="${tempDir}\\log.xml" collapseattributes="true" />

        <property name="svn.revisions" value="${log.logentry.revision}" />

        <echo>${svn.revisions}</echo>

        <input message="Select Start Revision" validargs="${svn.revisions}" addproperty="svn.startRevision" />
        <input message="Select End Revision" validargs="${svn.revisions}" addproperty="svn.endRevision" />

    </target>

</project>

Please let me know if you think there's better way to list revision numbers.
