The ColdFusion MX Administrator Verity > Collections page displays the information that is
returned when you use the
list
attribute.
If the Verity Server is not running when the
list
action is executed, the tag throws an error.
To determine whether a collection exists, use code, such as the following, to execute a query of
queries:
<cfcollection action="list" name="myCollections" >
<cfquery name="qoq" dbtype="query">
select * from myCollections
where myCollections.name = 'myCollectionName'
</cfquery>
<cfif qoq.recordcount GT 0>
<!--- Collection exists --->
<cfdump var = #qoq#>
</cfif>
To get a result set with values for all the collections that are registered with the Verity server, use
code such as the following:
<cfcollection action="list" name="myCollections">
<cfoutput query="myCollections">
#name#<br>
</cfoutput>
To add content to a collection, use
cfindex
. To search a collection, use
cfsearch .
