  • "Does anyone have an opinion on Adobe Coldfusion?"

    A (very) brief list of ColdFusion/CFML resource links in response to Tweet from @ryanmaurodesign: "Does anyone have an opinion on Adobe Coldfusion?"

    The short answer: yes :) There is a vibrant CFML community and many will be excited to tell you why it's so fantastic!

  • What's a Software Product Line - and Why Should I Care?

    A Software Product Line (SPL) is a set of resources that allow for the building of a set of similar applications more efficiently. Generally the ROI for a SPL is 3-4 projects. In addition, it's usually best to build a SPL around a known domain - if you haven't built at least a couple of applications in a particular domain it's unlikely that you'll make good decisions when designing the spl. Because of this, you need to be working in a domain where you plan on building at least 5-8 projects in th

  • Mocking Objects with ColdBox Annotations

    One of the nice things about ColdBox's model integration features are the ability to inject objects by using annotations via the cfproperty tag.  This gives a cleaner API to objects that don't really need to expose setters just for dependency injection purposes.  Why? well, in MY opinion, objects should be shy and only expose what they need to expose to the outside world.  By leveraging annotations, I can cleanly define the dependencies of my object and what is even better, it can

  • Motorcycles, Trikes and Wrenches

    Anyone that knows me knows that in addition to being a web application developer, server admin, database geek, etc that I am also a biker. And my wife is a photographer and a triker. Part of being a biker is wrenching on your own ride. It makes it more personal and whom else can you trust more than yourself?

    My wife does a fair amount of mechanical work on her trike, but sometimes the job is just more than she knows how to do. So, I get to wrench for her. She has a 1981 Trike Sho

  • Calling a ColdFusion Function Dynamically

    So I have this custom tag that displays a rates table for different things like products and classes everything is the same except the Foreign Key. I have my reasons for separate tables. But here was my problem I pass in my array of Transfer objects, and I loop over them but when I get to one field that is different I was using the evaluate function which I don't like to use. So I remembered that you can reference the name of the function and it will not execute so I did this.

  • How do you learn OO?

    I'll quote a favorite phrase Matt Woodward used to use a lot in regards to learning OO. How do you eat an elephant? Wait for it... One bite at a time. For instance, take the tens of questions that pour onto the Mach-II list over a few months saying "I'm new to OO. I'm new to Mach-II. How do you use ColdSpring and Transfer?" Learning this stuff takes time and not just time to understand the fundamentals and concepts, but takes time to learn where and how to apply them. If you are a novice cook an

  • ColdFusion Open-Source Update - May 26, 2009

    Five new projects and one update this week in ColdFusion open source. Sorry for the lateness on this post but between the late nights of drinking at 360|Flex last week and another late night of drinking with my friend backstage at The National concert at The House of Blues, I am still recovering. However, I learned a lot. First, I learned that the community is doing some pretty damn amazing things with Flex and AIR (there are some seriously smart people developing in Flex). The second is that

  • ColdSpring News, CFConversations RoundTable and other cf.Objective() tidbits

    While I am recovering from the Australian WebDU conference, a few days before that started I got off a plane after the end of the wonderful cf.Objective() conference.I have to say, this year's cfObjective()was the best organised out of all the years I have been to.  As perusual, the content was stellar, the hotel was lovely, and it was anabsolute pleasure to catch up with everyone at the ...

  • Follow up: JSON value object from Transfer via ColdSpring remote proxy

    I think I found myself a solution. First, here's the problem.

    The Problem

    I have Transfer managing my ORM. It works awesome, I love it, and now I want to start building AJAX-based tools to manage the data through Transfer. But Transfer hides all properties of a class behind getter and setter methods, so when I hit a remote CFC to get, say, new("person") or get("person", 42), all that comes back in a JSON string is {}. No properties visible, so nothing comes back.

    The S
