I concur on all that you said. On *nix, you also need to run the command
through `su` to the user account that CF runs as, so that it can later
overwrite the compiled templates when they change.
Also on *nix, you can redirect standard out to /dev/null so you don't have
to watch the template list (especially now that it's ugly), but still can
see any compilation errors that the script generates. You can do the same
redirection on windows, but I don't know what the equivalent of /dev/null
is.
Here's the script that I use on Linux. It will not work on CFMX 6, only
6.1.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/sh
#
# set up the variables that will drive the precompilation process
#
CF_INSTALL=/opt/coldfusionmx
CF_USER=nobody
#
# if we don't have a directory, display usage
#
if [ $# -eq 0 ]; then
echo "Usage: $0 /dir/to/compile"
exit
fi
#
# do the precomilation. This will automatically look into
# subdirectories
#
su $CF_USER -c "$CF_INSTALL/runtime/jre/bin/java \
-classpath
$CLASSPATH:$CF_INSTALL/lib/cfusion.jar:$CF_INSTALL/runtime/lib/jrun.jar \
coldfusion.tools.Compiler -webroot $1 \
-webinf $CF_INSTALL/wwwroot/WEB-INF $1" > /dev/null
