Manually compile cfc/cfm files to check for errors

We’ve recently converted some of our legacy CF code ( probably around 10
years old or older in places ) to Railo, but I wish there was a way I could
run a manual compile in order to find syntax errors that might have been
introduced. I read an old Railo group thread about it, but trying this
GetPageContext().compile(page)
on a test page that has an error doesn’t seem to fail. I think Micha
referred to a cfdeploy that might help, but I cannot find any documentation
on it.

Any ideas?

Yep! Totally!

Go to the Lucee admin and create a mapping to the root of your application

something like
Virtual = /
Resource = ~/Sites/myapp/

Save it, click on the editor (pencil) icon next to the mapping entry and you can see a page where you can now untick the "Stop on error” and press the “Compile|” button. This will now give you a list of errors in compilation with your code.

This is how I checked applications for general compatibility when I worked at Railo

I did a ANT task runner for railo CLI a long while back and was able to run railo as an ant task so you could just point it to a script that runs the tag.

You’re just saying that to wind me up, now, aren’t you ;-)–

Very nice, Mark! Thanks!

Yep, we’ve got an ant macrodef for compiling Lucee archives (fails with any
errors). The whole process is scripted so you son’t need a running server
first. There will be a lucee-cli, installable via apt-get or yum sometime
next week too, so best of both worlds. :slight_smile:
