Pass Variables within the RenderView call

X-CFW · May 11, 2011, 3:55pm

Hi guys,

I used to have this working just fine in CF9 (Coldbox 3 Beta):
#renderView(view='#theview#',formevent='value1',msg='value2',actiontype='value3')#

Now the variables are lost in Railo 3.2 (Coldbox 3 Final):
#renderView(view='#theview#',formevent='value1',msg='value2',actiontype='value3')#

Any ideas?

if you want to pass these variables to your view, use
Event.setValue("formevent", "value1"); in your Handler
and
Event.getValue("formevent"); in your view

I've just never tried to pass any variables through renderView, and i
didn't find any documentation on that.

hope this helps.

Thank you Daniel,

Since the decision or the values of the variables occur in the view at
the moment I call the "include" function, and not the handler.
(probably bad design) I will review it and re-design it.
