 | 20 Nov 01:43 Last night I was thinking about the Bolt announcement and how disappointed I was in the whole thing. For the most part they announced they were building CFEclipse. Yes they announced some ORM and code generation tools but the majority of ‘features’ they announced are available today in CFEclipse. Maybe I’m spoiled by using [... 19 Nov 07:36 So I go to a meeting and of course all the cool stuff is announced… CF IDE! Bolt! The good: Object Relational Mapping auto-configuration Application Code Generation Server management These other features are already in CFEclipse or available via a plugin: Easily extensible through the Eclipse framework CFML, HTML, Javascript, and CSS Syntax Highlighting Code assist for tags, functions, variables, and components Code folding Snippet creation [... 18 Nov 05:12 We’re using JIRA at work for issue tracking and I need to write a small ColdFusion app that integrates with it… looking through the JIRA docs they have a SOAP API available so I need to figure out how that works… :) Anyone know of any good ColdFusion related SOAP tutorials, blogs posts, etc? If so leave [... 15 Nov 01:08 Just got an email from Fusion Authority - pointing me to a PDF version of the latest Fusion Authority! This issue focuses on DATA! Not the old Star Trek android but the important bits and bytes sort of data you deal with every day as developer. I won’t spoil the surprise of who’s in it - but [... 13 Nov 03:26 The CFEclipse world has been quiet lately. The mailing list has been slow, bug reports are rare, and it seems people are making due with the latest ‘beta’ release which for the most part works well with the latest Eclipse 3.4. I poke around on the CFEclipse wiki doing occasional updates but wonder if anyone [... 2 Oct 02:40 As I previously mentioned I’ve been busy lately - both at work and lately with our local ColdFusion User Group. Recently Dan Wilson asked me to join him as co-manager of the Triangle Area ColdFusion user group (TACFUG). I’ve been busy revamping our site which was overdue for a facelift. I rolled out the new site [... 16 Sep 00:05 On an unrelated quest on Joel Spolsky’s site I stumbled across Stack Overflow. What is it? Stack Overflow is a programming Q & A site that’s free. Free to ask questions, free to answer questions, free to read, free to [... 7 Aug 01:30 Google rolled out one of it’s cool tools today… Google Insights for Search. With Google Insights for Search, you can compare search volume patterns across specific regions, categories, and time frames. Of course I had to punch in ColdFusion! Unfortunately the “Interest over time” graph didn’t look to good: Of course I know these things are skewed all [... 8 Jul 03:50 Code, exciting and new Come Aboard. We’re expecting you. Code, life’s sweetest reward. Let it flow, it floats back to you. Code Boat soon will be making another run The Code Boat promises something for everyone Set a course for adventure, Your mind on a new RIA. Code won’t hurt anymore It’s an open smile on a friendly shore. Yes COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODE! It’s COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODE! (hey-ah!) Check it [... 25 Jun 00:46 I don’t think I’ve seen anyone else mention this but I thought it merited some discussion… Brian Meloche has a post on his blog Promoting CFML Outside of the CFML Community - Results. I’m guessing this went down at CFUnited. In particular I was interested in the results from the Group 1 discussion “Promoting CFML to New [... | | |
