Offhand I'm not sure what (if any) additional or modified CFC or OO
features will be included in the Blackstone release. For instance, I
know a number of people have been suggesting interfaces, although I
don't know if there are plans to include them in Blackstone. As a
whole the ColdFusion team at Macromedia seem to be focusing primarily
on more ease-of-use features such as native support for publishing to
PDF and FlashPaper using the new CFDOCUMENT tag.
That being said, the current version of ColdFusion (6.1/Red Sky)
includes what many of us feel to be a reasonably full-featured OO
implementation in the form of CFC's which can be used with any of the
three frameworks mentioned in this thread. Implementation of CFC's
between these three frameworks will vary somewhat however, as only
Mach-II requires the use of CFC's and only the onTap framework
provides API enhancements to the native CFC features in CFML such as
dynamic and multiple inheritance (as far as I know). Both Fusebox 3
and Fusebox 4 are agnostic to CFC's as far as I know, which may or may
not be a good thing, depending on your particular needs and
development style.
