I'm trying to get SVN autoversioning (webDav) configured for use with
dreamweaver (in this case, dreamweaver 8). It seems like it's working, but I
can't publish new files. Also, I'm not seeing file revisions when I post new
files. Admittedly, I'm new to SVN so this could easily be a user issue.
Yes, you could use CFtransaction for this type of isolation, but this can also
cause problems that you wouldn't see with cflock. Cftransaction
isoloation='serializabile' for example will give you an exclusive lock to all
tables within the transaction (most restrictive level of isloation).
If this is true - wrap the code in a named lock:
cflock name=aUniqueLockName type=exclusive
your SQL here
/cflock
A named lock ensures that only one thread at a time will be allowed to run the
code within the cflock tag. CFTransaction will not give you this same level of
isolation.

I'm trying to do a search with RETS. I am able to login and pull metadata, just

CF shouldn't be caching these files... I would suspect that the caching issue
lies within your browser or your webserver (IIS). However, if clicking 'clear
template cache' is resolving your issue, just set the maximum number of cached
templates to 0.
Does anyone have some experience with connecting to the RETS real estate data
feeds? I would just like to do a basic search using coldfusion.

The file transaction I'm looking to do is a communication with a bank - I have
no control over the file server in place on their end. It is an FTPS

If there's an existing Java object that I can wrap,
