4.3.6 CFCONTENT
BlueDragon does not support using a pair of CFCONTENT tags, as in:
<CFCONTENT…>some data</CFCONTENT>. In BlueDragon, only the opening CFCONTENT
tag is supported.
4.3.7 CFDUMP
BlueDragon currently ignores the
EXPAND and LABEL attributes available in ColdFusion.
4.3.8 CFERROR
In ColdFusion, when a CFERROR uses TYPE=”Request”, the page can list variables in the
Error scope without need of a CFOUTPUT. BlueDragon does not recognize or output those
variables; instead, you must wrap them in CFOUTPUT tags. The use of CFOUTPUT tag is
compatible with ColdFusion, as the
CFOUTPUT tags will simply be sent to the browser by
ColdFusion, where they are ignored.
4.3.9 CFEXECUTE
BlueDragon does not support the
Variable attribute, which was added in CFMX 6.1.
4.3.10 CFFUNCTION
BlueDragon does not support the
Roles attribute.
BlueDragon does not support the
OUTPUT=”yes” in the same manner as ColdFusion.
With this feature, meaningful only in the context of a CFC method, ColdFusion acts as if
a
CFOUTPUT is implied within the method, and free-standing expressions are evaluated
and displayed even though they’re not surrounded by
CFOUTPUT tags. BlueDragon does
not offer this behavior and therefore if OUTPUT=”yes”, which is the default, you must add
CFOUTPUT tags in the method around free-standing expressions to cause them to be evalu-
ated and displayed.
4.3.11 CFGRAPH
BlueDragon only supports creating graphs in JPEG format; it does not support GIF or
Flash formats. Therefore, the only valid value for the
fileFormat attribute is “JPG”; if
any other value is assigned to this attribute an error will be generated by BlueDragon.
4.3.12 CFHTTP
BlueDragon also does not support the specification of https as the protocol in CFHTTP’s
url attribute.
Also, BlueDragon does not support the following new attributes added in CFMX:
firstRowAsHeaders and charset, nor those added in CFMX 6.1: multipart,
getasbinary, proxyuser, and proxypassword attributes, nor does it support the new
values for
method: head, put, delete, options, and trace. It also does not support
the new variables in the
CFHTTP structure (which is provided after a CFHTTP operation):
charset, errorDetail, and text.
