I am using ColdFusion 9.1.2
We are using a CFC to save some data via a query. After the query runs, there is a CFEXECUTE. Once that completes, which can take 30 seconds, I want to query the database that the CFEXECUTE wrote something to and return a variable. If anything gets out of order, nothing will be correct.
My question is whether CFEXECUTE fires and the ColdFusion goes onto the next thing, or does ColdFusion wait until the CFEXECUTE is complete?
The
timeoutattribute determines this.From the docs
Timeout
Length of time, in seconds, that ColdFusion waits for output from the spawned program.
If the value is 0, ColdFusion starts a process and returns immediately. ColdFusion may return control to the calling page before any program output displays. To ensure that program output displays, set the value to 2 or higher.
