Enabling J2EE Memory Variables

[Old Tony]

My question relates to ColdFusion MX 7 running under Win 2003.
If I have a hosted site where the ISP refuses to enable J2EE Memory Variables
on the server, but I need to use J2EE memory variables, is there a way to
invoke them just for my site, say via Application.cfm?

I've not found any reference to this elsewhere.

I'd be grateful for any info.

Regards

I believe the setting is server wide.

You can set it programmatically from Application.cfm using the Admin API.

BUT... To use the API, you need the admin or an RDS password.

I've posted sample code, below.
But it sounds like you need to correct your ISP.

<CFSCRIPT>
sInitVal = "";

if (IsDefined ("FORM.sPassWord"))
sInitVal = FORM.sPassWord;
</CFSCRIPT>


<CFOUTPUT>
<form method="post">
<p>
Enter the admin or RDS password:
<input type="password" name="sPassWord" value="#sInitVal#">
</p>

<input type="submit" value="Login and switch J2EE sessions.">
</form>
</CFOUTPUT>


<CFSCRIPT>
if (IsDefined ("FORM.sPassWord"))
{
//--- Login is always required. This example uses two lines of code.
///*
adminObj = createObject("component","cfide.adminapi.administr ator");
adminObj.login ("#sInitVal#"); //, rdsPasswordAllowed="true");
//*/

//--- Instantiate the runtime control object. ---
RT_Obj = createObject("component","cfide.adminapi.runtime") ;

bAreSessionsEnabled = RT_Obj.getScopeProperty ("enableJ2EESessions");

WriteOutput ("<h4>J2EE Sessions = #bAreSessionsEnabled#</h4>");

RT_Obj.setScopeProperty ("enableJ2EESessions", "no");


bAreSessionsEnabled = RT_Obj.getScopeProperty ("enableJ2EESessions");

WriteOutput ("<h4>J2EE Sessions = #bAreSessionsEnabled#</h4>");

RT_Obj.setScopeProperty ("enableJ2EESessions", "yes");


bAreSessionsEnabled = RT_Obj.getScopeProperty ("enableJ2EESessions");

WriteOutput ("<h4>J2EE Sessions = #bAreSessionsEnabled#</h4>");
}

</CFSCRIPT>
