Problem with Application variables using Application.cfc

[Hugo Sombreireiro]

Hi guys,

I'm using CFMX7 and with that the Application.cfc.
I've defined the app variables using <cfset This.varname = "something">
I would like to output some of that variables to pages like
<cfset This.BrowserTitle = "Test">
using
<cfoutput>#This.BrowserTitle#</cfoutput>.

Problem is, whatever variables I define in the Application.cfc, whenever I try
to invoke them (whether they are THIS,APPLICATION,SESSION or whatever), I get
an error "ELEMENT X IS NOT DEFINED IN Y".

No errors are shown while parsing the Application.cfc file.

Any insights on this?

Thanks

Hugo

Hugo-

Not sure where you're setting these variables, but if you want to set application variables, set them in onApplicationStart.

<cfset application.foo = 'bar'>

Collin,

This is what's going on:

Application.cfc

<cffunction name="onApplicationStart">
<cfset Application.LocalFolder = "F:\ThisApp">
</cffunction>

Index.cfm
Local folder is <cfoutput>#Application.LocalFolder#</cfoutput>

Error: Element LOCALFOLDER is not defined in APPLICATION.

Did you try creating the session struct first?

<cfset Application = StructNew()>
