All this is really neat-o..... but does WebObjects development
enviroment/toolset improve the way web based applications are built.
Does it make for Faster - Easier Coding?
So what if it runs on Mac's/NT's/Linux's/Televisions/Or toasters - no matter
really. The attraction of cfml is the ease and speed by which a robust app
can be built.
Yes Allaire is talking about Java, but, as I understand the "vision"...
we'll still be able to code in the simple tag based dialect we have come to
know and love about CFML - its just that our beloved CFML will become
compiled(?) or whatever into Java bytecode "stuff" - by CFAS, and run like
CFAnywhere would have with JRun, only with support for "all" CFML tags.
I say CFStudio5 for Mac and Linux and everyone pipe down :-)
That would give me the extra push I need to go get that bad ass MONDO Flat
Screen Apple Cinema Display - wooo hooooo
