Problem with ColdFusion 20180?

[Michael Kear]

Tap Tap Tap  is this thing on?    Check one two …..   <G> 

 

I hope someone is still here ..

 

I’ve been using ColdSpring 1.2 for all this time – because it’s been giving me what I needed for my sites..    now I’ve updated my CF to CF2018 and I’m getting this error on every site that uses Coldspring: 

 

[quote]  Invalid CFML construct found on line 243 at column 28.   [/quote]

The offending file is beanfactory.cfc and the line in question says:

 

<cfset var abstract = false />

 

It doesn’t call an error on the two previous lines though:

<cfset var aliasIx = 0 />

<cfset var aliasAttributes = 0 />

 

Any suggestions?

I am going to guess that abstract is now a reserved word.

Pretty certain the line referenced is not the offending line. The true error is probably somewhere after that line, I'm guessing

I like Mark's answer better. :)

Can confirm what Mark said via this gist: https://trycf.com/gist/4ce163322f467f07789a3b9483f4ab71/acf2018?theme=monokai that 'abstract' is a reserved word in CF2018. Changes would need to be made to BeanDefinition.cfc and DefaultXMLBeanFactory.cfc. Also, if you use it in your coldspring.xml.cfm. I use it once in a ParentService bean:

<bean id="ParentService" abstract="true">...</bean>

Seems to work as expected on Lucee!

Cheers,

Dave

Are any of you using ColdSpring with ColdFusion2018?     If you are,  perhaps I could just upgrade to the next version and continue on as before.     (that’s very hopeful isn’t it!!     Life doesn’t often work out that easy for me)

I ran into the same issue and ended up replacing the word abstract with isAbstract and that seemed to fix the issue and I haven't run into other issues yet.
