CF8, GRID,BIND

[Hanno1962]

I am trying to get the ajax grid to work but have a small hurdle.

The application sits on a D:drive, with a virtual dir : Apps : http://myserver/apps = web-root

/component/ are in a subdir, now I am I am trying to use

bind="cfc:component.mytest.getNames({cfgridpage},{cfgridpagesize},{cfgridsortcolumn},{cfgridsortdirection})"

But it does not -see- my component. The only thing that works is copying the mytest.cfc to the c:\coldfusion8\wwwroot\

What do I miss here ? Thank you

Thanks

i'm not sure that using the folder name in the bind statement will work.
Try setting your cfc locations in application.cfm - <cfset REQUEST.CFCLocation="cfc"> something like that, where cfc is the folder name.

Hope that helps a little.

Thanks, will try,

sofar my conclusion is that virtual directories are not accepted in the path.

I think you'll have to do a mapping. You can do it in the admin under
mapping: name: components path: D:\apps\components

CF8 did introduce application.cfc mappings you might look into that as well.

Unfortunately if you want to use a cfc:bind statement you need to have the cfc be somewhere under the webroot. You can not even use mappings, which frankly blows.

From the Adobe LiveDocs:

quote:

---

Using bind expressions
To specify a bind expression, use one of the following formats:

cfc:componentPath.functionName(parameters)
Note: The component path cannot use a mapping. The componentPath value must be a dot-delimited path from the web root or the directory that contains the current page.
