Question

Anyone have ideas on how to find the line number an file this compiler error is happening on CF isn t really being very helpful here I m testing an old app on CF 2021 for the first time so it could literally be any where across a huge code base of files stack in the thread

bdw429s · Answer

I have robust exceptions enabled and there is literally no other information on the page

wil-shiftinsert · Answer

can t you use the cfml compiler for this I had simular issues on Lucee some time ago and it was really helpful Not sure if it can help you though

wil-shiftinsert · Answer

o no Lucee only I guess

ryan · Answer

is your old app using mxunit by any chance

bdw429s · Answer

Why yes it is

bdw429s · Answer

I assume there s an issue with the word static being used somewhere

bdw429s · Answer

I already had to fix several of those errors when testing this app on Lucee

bdw429s · Answer

now the client wants to test it on CF 2021 coming from CF 10 and I ve found ACF has an even crankier parser

ryan · Answer

Found this in a thread that maybe might help Yeah MXUnit is very dead it seems Just like you I ran into this issue when testing out CF2021 I managed to solve it by removing the static= true attribute from all functions in framework Assert cfc and by removing the HamcrestAssert cfc and XPathAssert cfc references from mxunit config xml

bdw429s · Answer

Lucee will allow you to do stuff like ```var function = foo var abstract = bar ``` but CF 2021 blows chunks on those

bdw429s · Answer

But I ve already removed all variables in the app called `static` when I got Lucee working

bdw429s · Answer

Ooh I do see a lot of `static= true ` in the code

bdw429s · Answer

I wonder if that annotation was even being used for anything

ryan · Answer

that might be the key to remove those

ryan · Answer

good question

bdw429s · Answer

This app is an old one using Transfer ColdSpring MXUnit etc It suffers from a whole lot of let s pretend CF is java and try to cram non existent design patterns in

ryan · Answer

HAHA awesome analogy

bdw429s · Answer

So there s all sorts of stuff like ```variables static FOO = Geez i wish CF supported actual real static vars ```

ryan · Answer

Lol

Adam Cameron · Answer

gt ```variables static FOO``` Ugh

bdw429s · Answer

< ryan> Where was that thread you copied the message above from I ve done everything that message mentions and I m still getting the same terrible vague error EDIT I found it via Google

bdw429s · Answer

< Mark Takata Adobe > Is there an engineer who can help with this

ryan · Answer

ryan · Answer

yep that s the one

bdw429s · Answer

Argh I found some more UDFs with `static=true` in MXunit that didn t come up in my search before

bdw429s · Answer

After testing this client app on Lucee Server for the past few weeks my GOSH ACF 2021 is SLOW AS A DOG

bdw429s · Answer

It sat and compiled code for a full 5 minutes across two requests since the first timed out before getting to the next error message

bdw429s · Answer

I don t know how people develop on ACF when it s this slow after a restart just to come up

bdw429s · Answer

Lucee only takes a few seconds to process the first requests on this same code base in side by side docker containers

bdw429s · Answer

This has been brought up over and over to < priyank adobe> < Mark Takata Adobe > and < Ashudeep Sharma> and still no progress or even acknowledgement of the issue

Dave Merrill · Answer

Thanks for the heads up staying on 2018 then slightly smiling face

bdw429s · Answer

< Dave Merrill> 2018 s compiler is still much slower than Lucee s Adobe s compiler has always been a dog The biggest reason is they throw exceptions internally as a form of flow control The overhead of throwing and catching what is probably thousands of exceptions a second really adds up

bdw429s · Answer

Here s a comparison I provided to Adobe back in 2020 just spinning up a ColdBox app template and starting the server and timing in fusionreactor how long the very first request takes to compile and load the page ```coldbox create app server start``` Lucee 5 Java 11 4 1 seconds ColdFuson 2018 U10 Java 11 63 Seconds ColdFuson 2016 U16 java 11 64 seconds Lucee will compile all the CFCs in the ColdBox framework and sample app and display the first page in 4 seconds It s over a minute for Adobe

bdw429s · Answer

Adobe has shown no interest in address this for the past 2 years confused
