We’ve noticed something odd with our Coldfusion 8 client variables DB. We have many more (about 3 times as many) CGlobal entries as we have CData entries.
I would have assumed that the relationship would be 1:1 on the cfid column.
Has any one else noticed this before? I have ruled out old data, my sample is less than 3 hours old. We’re using SQL Server 2000 to host the tables.
Thanks in advance,
Ciaran
The reason is that an application that uses client variables will always have a
cGlobalrecord for a client but will only have acDatarecord for a client if the client scope is actually written to, e.g.<cfset client.foo = "bar" />.So this is reasonable behaviour but it seemed odd to me because I thought we always wrote to the client scope for every request.
