coldbox rc var not showing up - coldfusion

ColdBox Variable
handlers/home.cfc
<cffunction name="index" output="false" hint="index">
<cfargument name="event">
<cfset rc.Test = 'This is a test 123.' />
<cfset event.setView("home/index")>
</cffunction>
views/home/index.cfm
<cfdump var="#rc#" />
Why is rc.test not showing up in the dump?


Without rc defined with cfargument, your rc.test will be set to variables.rc.test in your handler.
Do this:
<cffunction name="index" output="false" hint="index">
<cfargument name="event">
<cfargument name="rc">
<cfargument name="prc">
<cfset rc.Test = 'This is a test 123.' />
<cfset event.setView("home/index")>
</cffunction>


You need to assign RC to Event.getCollection(). We do this at the top of every handler function.
<cffunction name="index" returntype="void" output="false">
<cfargument name="event" required="true">
<cfscript>
var rc = event.getCollection();
var prc = event.getCollection( private = true );
// your handler code here
Event.setView('home/index');
</cfscript>
</cffunction>

ColdFusion 11 seems to render definitions for superclass as well as class

In a ColdFusion application, I have a class called ProjectBeanService that extends another class called AjaxBeanService.
In CF8, where the code seems to be working properly, when debugging the application in IE, I see this rendered JavaScript:
<script type="text/javascript">
var _cf_ProjectBeanService=ColdFusion.AjaxProxy.init('/components/ProjectBeanService.cfc','ProjectBeanService');
_cf_ProjectBeanService.prototype.get=function(sPropertyName,sBeanType,nID,sSection,nRevision) { return ColdFusion.AjaxProxy.invoke(this, "get", {sPropertyName:sPropertyName,sBeanType:sBeanType,nID:nID,sSection:sSection,nRevision:nRevision});};
_cf_ProjectBeanService.prototype.getAll=function(sBeanType,nID,sSection,nRevision) { return ColdFusion.AjaxProxy.invoke(this, "getAll", {sBeanType:sBeanType,nID:nID,sSection:sSection,nRevision:nRevision});};
_cf_ProjectBeanService.prototype.set=function(sPropertyName,oPropertyValue,sBeanType,nID,sSection,nRevision) { return ColdFusion.AjaxProxy.invoke(this, "set", {sPropertyName:sPropertyName,oPropertyValue:oPropertyValue,sBeanType:sBeanType,nID:nID,sSection:sSection,nRevision:nRevision});};
</script>
However, when I try to run the same application under CF11, both the class methods and the superclass methods are rendered:
<script type="text/javascript">/* <![CDATA[ */
var _cf_ProjectBeanService=ColdFusion.AjaxProxy.init('/components/ProjectBeanService.cfc','ProjectBeanService');
_cf_ProjectBeanService.prototype.get=function(sPropertyName,sBeanType,nID,sSection,nRevision) { return ColdFusion.AjaxProxy.invoke(this, "get","4789898A8974AC60", {sPropertyName:sPropertyName,sBeanType:sBeanType,nID:nID,sSection:sSection,nRevision:nRevision});};
_cf_ProjectBeanService.prototype.getAll=function(sBeanType,nID,sSection,nRevision) { return ColdFusion.AjaxProxy.invoke(this, "getAll","4789898A8974AC60", {sBeanType:sBeanType,nID:nID,sSection:sSection,nRevision:nRevision});};
_cf_ProjectBeanService.prototype.set=function(sPropertyName,oPropertyValue,sBeanType,nID,sSection,nRevision) { return ColdFusion.AjaxProxy.invoke(this, "set","4789898A8974AC60", {sPropertyName:sPropertyName,oPropertyValue:oPropertyValue,sBeanType:sBeanType,nID:nID,sSection:sSection,nRevision:nRevision});};
_cf_ProjectBeanService.prototype.get=function(sBeanName,sPropertyName) { return ColdFusion.AjaxProxy.invoke(this, "get","4789898A8974AC60", {sBeanName:sBeanName,sPropertyName:sPropertyName});};
_cf_ProjectBeanService.prototype.destroySessionBean=function(sBeanName) { return ColdFusion.AjaxProxy.invoke(this, "destroySessionBean","4789898A8974AC60", {sBeanName:sBeanName});};
_cf_ProjectBeanService.prototype.createSessionBean=function(sBeanName,sBeanType,sDAOName) { return ColdFusion.AjaxProxy.invoke(this, "createSessionBean","4789898A8974AC60", {sBeanName:sBeanName,sBeanType:sBeanType,sDAOName:sDAOName});};
_cf_ProjectBeanService.prototype.getAll=function(sBeanName) { return ColdFusion.AjaxProxy.invoke(this, "getAll","4789898A8974AC60", {sBeanName:sBeanName});};
_cf_ProjectBeanService.prototype.getSessionBean=function(sBeanName) { return ColdFusion.AjaxProxy.invoke(this, "getSessionBean","4789898A8974AC60", {sBeanName:sBeanName});};
_cf_ProjectBeanService.prototype.set=function(sBeanName,sPropertyName,oPropertyValue) { return ColdFusion.AjaxProxy.invoke(this, "set","4789898A8974AC60", {sBeanName:sBeanName,sPropertyName:sPropertyName,oPropertyValue:oPropertyValue});};
_cf_ProjectBeanService.prototype.reInitSessionBean=function(sBeanName,argument1,argument2,argument3,argument4) { return ColdFusion.AjaxProxy.invoke(this, "reInitSessionBean","4789898A8974AC60", {sBeanName:sBeanName,argument1:argument1,argument2:argument2,argument3:argument3,argument4:argument4});};
/* ]]> */</script>
In this block of code, notice how after the "set" function is defined, it is defined again (and according to the superclass definition). It seems to me that ColdFusion 11 is rendering this superclass, whereas CF 8 did not.
Any suggestions?

Here is a stripped down version of the application, wherein I was able to reproduce the error.

So far, the only answer I have come up with is that this must be a bug in CF11, so I was able to "fix" it by marking the methods in the parent class as having access "public" rather than "remote". I do not yet know what unintended consequences this could have, but it seems to have fixed my problem. If anyone has a better suggestion, please let me know, and I'll give the answer check to that person.

query is not indexable by column name but the columns shouldn't exist

So every so often I am getting this error, mostly caused by bots:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException:
[Table (rows 0 columns ID, BOOKID, EDITIONID, EDITIONNAME, PRACTICEAREALINK, PUBLISHED):
...REALINK: coldfusion.sql.QueryColumn#2c12f137]
[PUBLISHED: coldfusion.sql.QueryColumn#f9a687c] ] is not indexable by webtypeid
However the columns it refers to are nowhere to be found in the query it's trying to reference.
so we have 3 files in play here, an index.cfm, a Business.cfc and a DAO.cfc. Within the business the code looks like:
<cfcomponent extends="_lbr._core.NativeBusiness">
<cffunction name="init" access="public" output="false" returntype="_lbr._who._publication._Edition.EditionBusiness" hint="Pseudo-constructor">
<cfargument name="oEditionDAO" type="_lbr._who._publication._Edition.EditionDAO" required="true">

Nothing particularly unusual there.

The only thing that is unusual here is that selectTypesByPracticeArea has a lstFields defaulted with variables.lstSubEditionFields, but since it's not being used in that function, it shouldn't prove an issue
so the index.cfm just has
variables.stArgs = {};
variables.stArgs.nPracticeAreaID = request.parameters.nPublicationID;
variables.stArgs.nEditionID = request.parameters.nSubEdition;
variables.qTypes = application.stObj.oEditionBusiness.getTypesByPracticeArea(argumentCollection=variables.stArgs);
if(variables.qTypes["webtypeid"].IndexOf(JavaCast("int",2)) GTE 0 OR variables.qTypes["webtypeid"].IndexOf(JavaCast("int",3)) GTE 0){
request.parameters.bHasTypes = true;
}
The error occurs on that if statement. It should only be receiving a query that contains webtypeid and typename, so where does it think that it's getting ID, BOOKID, EDITIONID, EDITIONNAME, PRACTICEAREALINK, PUBLISHED from? All i can reason is that it's getting confused with the lstfields... but that doesn't make any sense.

At first glance I suspect it's that you are not using var to declare qQuery local to the function, so it is being overwritten at times while you are executing these methods. If you try this before your CFQUERY tags you will likely see it go away:
<cfset var qQuery = "">
You can also use the LOCAL scope as in local.qQuery

how to pass the data of the function to a custom tag attribute

My Custom tag expects a “query” in one of the attribute but my cfc function returns me the structure when I dump it. This is my function listScores()

</cfif>
<cfreturn getArrayFromQuery(OCRUD.listScores(argumentCollection=arguments)) />
</cffunction>
When i dump the iEngine.listScores() i get the structure output.
I want to pass this iEngine.listScores() data to the custom tag which expects a query.

How to reference a returned structure from a cfc?

I'm using the validation CFC by Ryan J. Heldt http://validation.riaforge.org/
My form submits to processSignup.cfc
<cfscript>
objValidation = createObject("component","cfcs.validation").init();
objValidation.setFields(form);
objValidation.validate();
</cfscript>
<!--- clear the error/success message --->
<cfset msg="">
<cfif objValidation.getErrorCount() is not 0>
<cfsavecontent variable="msg">
<H2>Error in form submission</H2>
<P>There were <cfoutput>#objValidation.getErrorCount()#</cfoutput> errors in your submission:</P>
<ul>
<cfloop collection="#variables.objValidation.getMessages()#" item="rr">
<li><cfoutput>#variables.objValidation.getMessage(rr)#</cfoutput></li>
</cfloop>
</ul>
<p>Please use the back button on your browser to correct your submission.</p>
</cfsavecontent>
</cfif>
<cfdump var="#objvalidation#">
<cfoutput>
#msg#
</cfoutput>
Which gives me this output
What I'm trying figure out is the name of the structure and how to to get to "confirm password", "password", "username" but I'm being dense and I can't figure out how to.

I'd think that since <cfdump var="#objvalidation#"> shows you the struct, you'd reference it via objValidation, no?
objValidation.messages should then show you the struct of the messages. Because "Confirm password" is a key with a space in it, you'll need to use array notation to reference it.
So...
#objValidation.messages[ 'Confirm password' ]#
#objValidation.messages[ 'password' ]#
#objValidation.messages[ 'username' ]#
...should work. In theory :)
EDIT: disregard the info above. You're dumping an actual object, not just a struct... so try:
<cfdump var="#objValidation.getMessages()#" />
Look at the code for the CFC and you'll see a getMessage() method which returns a struct. So once you have that, you can get at the individual messages. Since you won't necessarily know what keys exist in the struct (as I assume it will vary depending on the validation failures), I'd just loop over the struct returned from #objValidation.getMessages()# via a standard struct-based <cfloop>
EDIT AGAIN:
<cfloop collection="#objValidation.getMessages()#" item="error">
#error#: #objValidation.getMessages[ error ]#<br />
</cfloop>

If you're trying to get the values, it looks like they're in objValidation.fields:
objValidation.getField('Confirm password')
objValidation.getField('password')
objValidation.getField('username')
I'd recommend making your life easier and taking the space out of the "Confirm password" field.

Why does the dependency injection fail in my CF factory object?

I get this error
Element INSTANCE is undefined in VARIABLES.
I do not see the reason for the error!
This is my factory
<cfcomponent output="true" displayname="ObjectFactory">
<cffunction name="init" access="public" output="true" returntype="ObjectFactory">
<cfset variables.instance = structNew() />
<cfreturn this />
</cffunction>
<cffunction name="createObj" access="public" output="false" returntype="any">
<cfargument name="objName" type="string" required="true" />
<cfswitch expression="#arguments.objName#">
<cfcase value="abstractCollection">
<cfreturn createObject('component',"AbstractCollection").init() />
<cfbreak />
</cfcase>
<cfcase value="assignmentCollection">
<cfreturn createObject('component',"AssignmentCollection").init() />
<cfbreak />
</cfcase>
<cfcase value="salesmanBean">
<cfreturn createObject('component',"SalesmanBean").init(
salesmanHasThisDecorations = this.getInstance("assignmentCollection")) />
<cfbreak />
</cfcase>
</cfswitch>
</cffunction>
<cffunction name="getInstance" access="public" output="false" returntype="any">
<cfargument name="objName" type="string" required="true" />
<!--- Error occurs in the line below --->
<cfif not structKeyExists(variables.instance, arguments.objName)>
<cfset variables.instance[arguments.objName] = this.createObj(arguments.objName) />
</cfif>
<cfreturn variables.instance[arguments.objName] />
</cffunction>
</cfcomponent>

Make sure you call init() when you instantiate ObjectFactory:
<cfset objectFactory = CreateObject("component","ObjectFactory").init()>
FYI, init() and <cfcomponent> should have output='false'
FYI, you should call your own function without "this.", because if for some reason the function is later declared as private, it won't find it in 'this' scope.

Agree that you are likely not calling .init() so are not creating the variable before accessing it.
You also may want to initialize (create) the VARIABLES scoped variables outside of init(). The init() should be used more for passing in values to your internal CFC-scope (VARIABLES scope) than for creating variables within it.
<cfcomponent displayname="ObjectFactory">
<cfset variables.instance = structNew() />
<cffunction name="init" access="public" returntype="ObjectFactory">
<cfargument name="name" required="yes" type="string">
<cfset variables.instance.name = arguments.name>
<cfreturn this />
</cffunction>
