Prefix serialized JSON and MinPatternsMatch #68

Open orangexception opened 12 years ago

orangexception commented 12 years ago

If the CFIDE option to Prefix serialized JSON is set to "//", then the JavaScript validation code throws "Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected end of input." The code looks like this... 

.rules('add',{"minpatternsmatch"://{"letters":

Just a FYI, I've disabled the CFIDE setting for the moment.

I've been looking into this and basically there is no way around it. There is an open ticket for this as a ER on the Adobe bugtracker: http://cfbugs.adobe.com/cfbugreport/flexbugui/cfbugtracker/main.html#bugId=80423

From what I can determine there is no way to tell ColdFusion to ignore the securePrefix, or to get the securePrefix (as it may not be "//") so that it can be stripped.

Any ideas welcomed!

Ah, I gotcha. It doesn't look like it's worth the trouble.

In theory, you can snag the securePrefix using the admin API, but you'd need to know the CFIDE admin username and password (which I probably won't give you). http://www.cfexecute.com/admin-api-documentation/runtime-cfc/#method_getRuntimeProperty

Thanks for the feedback, the only way I can see of doing this is to replace the native JSON serialisation with cfJSON or similar. For now I think this might have to go on the "nice to have" list.
