Known Issues with Smith
Smith ProjectI made a similar post on the cfopen blog, but I wanted to make sure I made note here.
I started trying to run some code with the CentOS VM yesterday. I started with MachII 1.1.1 and immediately ran in to some issues that need to be addressed. (<cfrethrow>, CreateObject())
I then tried to run cfshopkart (an open source CF shopping cart app), and ran in to some other, different issues (Application.cfm,custom tags). So, I decided it was time for a round of bug/issue reports to Smith
From http://cfopen.instantspot.com :
As of this posting the issues I have encountered and since reported to the Smith team:
I have reported all of these issues to Smith via email, and if they hadn't been noted on their forum already, I made note there as well.
- <cfrethrow> tag not supported
- CreateObject() not supported. (NEED this!)
- NOTE: <cfobject> and <cfinvoke> ARE supported
- Application.cfm doesn't seem to be behaving the same as in ColdFusion. In order to get the Application.cfm code to run I ended up needing to it at the top of a template.
- Custom tag paths are a mystery right now. No mater what I tried, I couldn't get custom tags to execute.
If anybody has any Java skills and wants to help the Smith team out, that would be incredible. Or, if anybody else has any issues they know about that is keeping them from considering Smith as a viable alternative, please leave a comment here http://cfopen.instantspot.com/blog/index.cfm/2007/6/6/Known-Issues-with-Smith
- MachII: cfrethrow error a s you mentioned. I removed all cfrethrow and gave up with an error in the AppManager which I could not resolve
Error message: Function "createAppManager" with 4 parameter(s) cannot be found!
File: C:\tomcat5\webapps\smith_1_3\MachII\mach-ii.cfm
- Fusebox5.1: I used the skeleton app and removed someminor issues (it didn't like
or message: Compile of file "C:\tomcat5\webapps\smith_1_3\fusebox5\fusebox5.cfm" failed with status 1:
C:\tomcat5\webapps\smith_1_3\WEB-INF\_smithwork\_out\__smithdynamic\_C\_tomcat5\_webapps\_smith_1_3\_fusebox5\_fusebox5.java:606: exception
It would be great to have smith compatible with the major frameworks. I wish I would be a hardcore java programmer thus I could help to improve this nice project...
