Re: [framework-one] RC scope "gone" on Railo (works on Adobe)

Can you post the entire checkAuthorization method?

I have developed a FW/1 application using Adobe ColdFusion version 9 with no issues. I am trying to port this application over to my hosting provider where I am using Railo.

In my Application.cfc I have this line in "setupRequest()":

controller( "security.checkAuthorization" );

In security.cfc my "checkAuthorization()" method has the following line:

if( session.userID eq 0 and rc.action neq "security.login" and rc.action neq "security.authenticate" )

When I run this on Adobe ColdFusion - everything is fine.  When I run this application on Railo I receive:

key [ACTION] doesn't exist in struct

Anyone seen something like this?

First question would be does your controller method have rc passed in as an argument?

function checkAuthorization( rc ){

}

The rc scope should be available within your controller method. We are currently converting a site over to Railo and everything functions as expected in terms of FW/1. The other question that I have though is why would you pass in the action with the rc.scope. Why aren't you just using variables.fw.getFullyQualifiedAction()?

Here is my code:

component {

public pickem.controllers.security function init ( required fw ){

variables.fw = fw;

variables.oGateway = new pickem.model.gateway.user();

variables.oService = new pickem.model.services.user();

return this;

}

public void function before( Required struct rc){

variables.rc.bIsDialog = false;

}

public void function checkAuthorization(){

// force all users to login

if( session.nUserID eq 0 and variables.rc.action neq "security.login" and variables.rc.action neq "security.authenticate" ){

variables.fw.redirect("security.login");

} else {

// set the session scope into rc

variables.rc.stUser = session;

}

}

.... some other methods ....

}

I wasn't aware that you needed to pass rc around so much... I see in the docs now that it is advised in the before (and other default methods), but I thought that it was available in any actions method.

What's interesting is the application works in its entirety on Adobe CF.

Ok, switching to variables.fw.getFullyQualifiedAction() worked.  Thanks.

BTW, you should *not* be scoping 'rc' in the variables scope of your controllers. That will cause all kinds of problems. You _should_, however, as Joe noted, have an rc argument for each and every method in your controller that you expect to be called as an event.
