to reference the application scope from your code. The entire framework is
in the application scope, so you should never need to reference the scope
explicity.
I believe the Listeners get passed a reference to the app manager in their
init() method, which you can use to get the property manager without going
to the application scope.

Thanks for the feed back.
Just to test this out, I did what Barney suggested and put the property
in the mach-ii.xml file and then put the following line the frameworks
index.cfm file to see what I would get:
<cfoutput>#Application.insidewood.apploader.getappmanager().getpropertymanag
er().getproperty("DataSourceName")#</cfoutput>
It appears that Application.insidewood is a Structure. The insidewood
is the application directory name. The Framework must have gotten
structure name from somewhere else.
Additionally,
When I used <cfdump> on "Application.insidewood", I got back a nice
pretty definition of the apploader object which helped me drill down.
<cfdump "#Application.insidewood.apploader#">
<cfdump var = "#Application.insidewood.apploader.getappmanager()#">
Nice!!!
Thanks for the help guys.
