The last ColdFusion Builder Extension you will install
I have to begin by apologizing. ColdFusion Builder is - already - a pretty darn cool tool. While it still has warts (and to be fair, it is still in beta), it has been my day to day programming tool for a few months now. One of the cooler features of CFB is how easy it is to extend it with custom extensions. You can find a bunch on RIAForge now. Unfortunately for them, though, I'm releasing an extension today that makes all of them pointless. (Warning, the size of this SWF is rather large - I recorded it on a large screen.)
Removed...
Ok, so if you watched the video and returned, sorry to waste your time. I do have one redeeming point to this blog entry. You may have noticed that the file I was editing in the video was refreshed automatically. Extensions can do this, but there is a typo in the documentation. In order to refresh the file that was right clicked on, you can use the following code (taken from the 'fix bugs' extension):
<cffile action="read" file="#myfile#" variable="code">
<cfset code = "<cftry>#code#<cfcatch></cfcatch></cftry>">
<cffile action="write" file="#myfile#" output="#code#"> <cfsavecontent variable="res">
<cfoutput>
<response>
<ide>
<commands>
<command type="refreshfile">
<params>
<param key="filename" value="#myfile#" />
<param key="projectname" value="#projectname#" />
</params>
</command>
</commands>
</ide>
</response>
</cfoutput>
</cfsavecontent> <cfheader name="Content-Type" value="text/xml"><cfoutput>#res#</cfoutput>
<cfsetting enablecfoutputonly="true" showdebugoutput="false">
<cfparam name="ideeventinfo">
<cfset data = xmlParse(ideeventinfo)>
<cfset myFile = data.event.ide.projectview.resource.xmlAttributes.path>
<cfset projectName = data.event.ide.projectview.xmlAttributes.projectname>
Specifically, I believe the docs say to use <command name="refreshfile">, while what you really want is type instead.
