Attributes
Usage
This tag returns #entry#, #type#, and #value# in a record set that you can access through tags
such as
cfoutput. To fully qualify these variables, use the record set name, as specified in the
name attribute.
If
#type# is a key, #value# is an empty string.
If you specify
type= "any", getAll also returns binary registry values. For binary values, the
#type# variable contains UNSUPPORTED and #value# is blank.
Example
<!--- This example uses cfregistry with the getAll action. --->
<cfregistry action = "getAll"
branch = "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Java VM"
