Change in LSTimeFormat function
In the LSTimeFormat function, the time format is now in hh:mm:ss, instead of hh:mm. For example, LSTimeFormat(CreateDateTime(2003,05,14,17,22,00)) displays 5:22:00 PM instead of 5:22 PM.

- t: Displays single-character time marker string, for example, A or P.
- tt: Displays multi-character time marker string, for example, AM or PM.
For more information, see DateTimeFormat.
In the code sample below,
<cfscript> WriteOutput(DateTimeFormat(now(),"tt")); // Displays AM or PM WriteOutput(DateTimeFormat(now(),"t")); // Displays A or P </cfscript>
Change in LSDateTimeFormat function
In the LSDateTimeFormat function, you can use the following masks as shown below:
- t: Displays single-character time marker string, for example, A or P.
- tt: Displays multi-character time marker string, for example, AM or PM.
For more information, see LSDateTimeFormat.

Change in LSParseDateTime function
In the LSParseDateTime function, you can use the masks t and tt to create a date/time object. For single-character time marker string, use t. For multiple-character time marker string, use tt.
In addition, to specify minutes, use nn instead of mm.
For more information, see LSParseDateTime.
In the code sample below,
<cfscript> WriteOutput(LSParseDateTime("9/19/2016 1:52 PM","en","m/dd/yyyy h:nn tt")); // Returns {ts '2016-09-19 13:52:00'} </cfscript>

What's new and changed in ColdFusion (2016 release) Update 2
Installation of Update 2
JSON serialization of struct and array
Serializing structs
The Update 2 introduces a way of specifying the datatype for keys in a struct. You set the datatype through the function setMetadata. The function takes an argument of type struct. The struct contains the value as the datatype.
For example:
<cfscript> example = structnew("ordered"); example.firstname = "Yes"; example.lastname = "Man"; // Default serialization converting string Yes to true writeoutput(SerializeJSON(example) & "|"); </cfscript>
The sample produces the output:
{"FIRSTNAME":true,"LASTNAME":"Man"}
In the output, you can see that the key=" firstname " has a Boolean value because there is no datatype information for the key value.
Using the setMedata function,
<cfscript> example = structnew("ordered"); example.firstname = "Yes"; example.lastname = "Man"; // Default Serialization Converting String Yes to true writeoutput(SerializeJSON(example) & "|"); // changing the default serialization by specifying the type of "firstname" as string metadata = {firstname: {type:"string"}}; example.setMetadata(metadata); writeoutput(SerializeJSON(example)); </cfscript>
The sample produces the following output:
{"FIRSTNAME":true,"LASTNAME":"Man"}
{"FIRSTNAME":"Yes","LASTNAME":"Man"}
For more information, see Serializing structs.
New Application.cfc variable
To set the metadata for a value in a struct, there is a new variable, serialization.structmetadata.
For example, if this .serialization. structmetadata = {zipcode="String"}; , you need not define the data type for zipcode for the struct that contains this key.
If you define the datatype for zipcode in the struct itself, then the defined datatype at struct level takes priority over the one defined in Application.cfc.
Fore more information, see Application.cfc variables.
Serializing arrays
You can use the setMetadata function to set the datatype to the array members. If all the items in the array have the same datatype, you can specify the datatype of a value as a struct, as shown in the samples below:
<cfscript> tags = ["struct", "json", "serialization", 2016, "HF2", "metadata"]; WriteOutput(serializejSON(tags)); </cfscript>
The sample produces the following output:
["struct","json","serialization",2016,"HF2","metadata"]
Using the setMetadata function,
<cfscript> tags = ["struct", "json", "serialization", 2016, "HF2", "metadata"]; tags.setmetadata({items: "string"}); writeoutput(serializejSON(tags)); </cfscript>
The sample produces the following output:
["struct","json","serialization","2016","HF2","metadata"]
For more information, see Array serialization.
Configuring SSL in API Manager
Configure SSL so that you can access the API Manager portals over HTTPS for better security and encryption. For more information, see Configuring SSL.
Changes in NTLM
The ntlmDomain attribute is required if a user is part of a domain. When the user is not part of a domain, the ntlmDomain attribute is optional. For more information, refer to the documentation of the following:
Applying Update 2 to API Manager
Perform the following steps before applying the update using the ColdFusion administrator and being logged as a non-root user:
- Stop the API Manager Analytics and Datastore services that are running as root.
- Use the command below to set the permissions for the API Manager database file system objects:
chown -R
For example, chwon -R nobody /opt/coldfusion2016apimanager/database

What's new and changed in ColdFusion (2016 release) Update 1
For more information, see the tech note.
Installation of Update 1
To install Update 1, refer to this document.
New version of Tomcat
Apache Tomcat has been upgraded to version 8.0.32.
Updates to Security Analyzer
The update 1 consists of significant enhancements and fixes to Security Code Analyzer that was introduced in ColdFusion (2016 release).
Security Analyzer enables developers to avoid common security pitfalls and vulnerabilities, such as, SQL Injection and XSS attacks while writing code.
The updates to Security Analyzer are as follows:
-
-
You can cancel a current scan and run a new one. Click Cancel to terminate the current scan.
-
You can choose multiple files or folders and scan specific files in a directory instead of scanning the entire directory.
-
There is a new tab Unscanned Files that displays a list of encrypted files and files with syntax errors.
-
Security Analyzer relies on asynchronous calls to the server, which results in better performance during scans and avoid RDS timeouts.
-
The status command now returns the following fields:
- percentage: Shows the percentage of scan completed
- totalfiles: Number of files to be scanned
- scannedfiles: Number of files scanned so far
- lastupdated: Timestamp of the last scanned file
Updates to API Manager
You can reset a password in ColdFusion API Manager. Click Forgot Password in the login screen and enter your user name to receive an email to reset the password.
As an administrator, you can enforce the number of invalid password attempts and password lockout via the following settings in the Security Configuration screen.
For more information, see Security settings.
You can also add an e-mail address from where users get password reset mails . For more information, see Mail configuration.
In addition, you can modify the mail template including the subject and the body. For more information, see Modify template.
In this release, only Portal users can request for a new password using the Forgot Password link.
