If the file is written to the filesystem when a change occurs, then CFMX _should_ recompile it upon execution. That shouldn't be a problem.
The question is _why_ would you want to make your code so inaccessible and inefficient. -----Original Message----- From: Barney Boisvert [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 20, 2003 8:16 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Retrieving CFMX code from a db You can't parse CF code in a variable, it has to exist as a file on the server. That being said, I've heard of various people creating a ramdisk on their server, pulling the CF code from the database, writting it to the ramdisk, and then CFINCLUDEing it into their app. However, that was before CFMX and it's precompilation cycle, so that won't work anymore (unless you like waiting for the java compiler to spin up every request). You could probably write your cf code, compile it, and the write the .class file to the database and extract that and write it to the CF cfclasses directory after computing the appropriate filename and including it that way, although that'd be a messy proposition. Bottom line, I think you're out of luck, at least with CF. I know you can embed SSI commands in your CF code and the web server (if it supports it) will process them in the returned content. You might be able to leverage that to some degree, depending on what you're doing, but no dynamic CF. barneyb > -----Original Message----- > From: Michael J.
