ajaxCFC – Setting Query Format

In the ajaxCFC library, the CFJSON project is used to serialize data sent back from ColdFusion Components. One of the settings is the format in which the serialization should be returned: query or array. Unfortunately, Rob’s Javascript interface to the component didn’t allow you to specify this. So with the help of a colleague, the queryFormat property was added to ajaxCFC.

Here’s an example call:

$.AjaxCFC({
	url:'com/company/common/ajax/ajax.cfc',
	bean: 'Facility',
	factory:'application.beanFactory',
	method: 'getFacilities',
	queryFormat: 'array',
	data: { 'orderby':orderByField },
	useDefaultErrorHandler: false,
	success: function(results) {
		$("#facilitySelectContainer").html(results);
	},
	error: function(results) {
		Ext.MessageBox.alert('Error Notification', 'There was an error while loading the facilities. Please try again.')
	}
});
