The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Difference between ColdFusion session variables and application variables

Asked by mfreeman2 in Cold Fusion Markup Language

Tags: ,

SESSION VARIABLES (e.g. session.variableName)
True or False?
It is my understanding that, if an application creates a session variable named var1 and initializes it to the username of the currently logged in user and user A and user B are both running the appliation at the same time, then when user A's invocation of the application accesses the session variable var1, the value returned will be the username for user A (NOT USER B). Likewise, if user B accesses the session variable var1, the value returned will be the username for user B (NOT USER A) In other words, each launch of the application creates its own instance of the session variable and when the session variable is accessed, the value returned will be the value stored in the variable by the particular users session
and NOT the value stored in the variable by any other session running the same application.

APPLICATION VARIABLES (e.g. application.variableName)
True or False?
If an application creates an application variable named var1 and initializes it to the username of the currently logged in user and user A and user B are both running the appliation at the same time, then when user A's invocation of the application accesses the application variable var1, the value returned will be the last value stored in the variable by EITHER user A's instance of the application or user B's instance of the application. In other words, each launch of the application references the SAME instance of the application variable and when the application variable is accessed the value returned will be last value stored in the variable by either user A's instance of the application or user B's instance of the application, which ever one wrote to the variable last.
