Unfortunately, I just found out while training the MX Master Class that the
ColdFusion MX 6.1 Updater broke dumping CFCATCH, which was a great help
during development when incorporating structured exception handling into
your code. There is also a new problem introduced where at least some
type="Object" exceptions are no longer published as such, so they slip by
all CFCATCHes -- even type="Any".
To help people out, I have created a little Zip file containing HTML files
that display the details of CFDUMPs of the CFCATCH structures published by
each type of exception (except Object, which I can't seem to catch anymore).
You can use these during development to help you remember where keys and
subkeys are and what they contain so you can granularly test for them inside
your CFCATCH blocks. I also included a note about the problem with
type="Object".
You can download it from http://www.ProductivityEnhancement.com. I hope
this helps.
