what else has progressed as much as cfm in the last yr or so? .net not much php - nope jsp - nope actually probably gone done now that cfm can play with jsp cgi? lol perl- haha asp - whats that?
its 2 am but off the top of my head some of the "unique features" that i guess dont make your list cfc's, remoting, j2ee deployment, flash forms, the new print functions, new reporting functions, flex intrgration, not to mention that flex & flash are really build around using coldfusion as the backend, i mean its a pretty long ass list and the whole language has been completely rebuilt from the ground up. It's been here since the begining and i dont see it going away. but then again someday .net will get "sparkle" whoo hoo cant u wait to get the sparkled version of shorthorn?? sure there are something that could be improved but i seem to notice quite a few ppl on here who say things like that are still running 4.5.... things change being cynical doesnt help and if u open up your eyes and see what all they are doing with it, its pretty sweet. Now ur on the other side of the world and so u may not see it and i think MM needs to do a better job of promoting it but i see more things on cfm then i do on "new great" features of .net then this comment Euhmm.. ASP.NET? PHP? Name one thing that cannot be done on these platforms and can be done with ColdFusion. ok what builtin featured do they have that cant be done in cfm? one thing huh? cfc :) 1 tag printing to pdf without extra dll's built in reports theres quite a few i never said u cant do the same things with other languages but those other languages dont have the same stuff built in as "features" and thats what your comment was about.=, lack of unique features as i recall ---------- Original Message ---------------------------------- From: "Micha Schopman" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Wed, 17 Nov 2004 10:07:33 +0100 >Why? .. > >Micha Schopman >Software Engineer > >Modern Media, Databankweg 12 M, 3821 AL Amersfoort >Tel 033-4535377, Fax 033-4535388 >KvK Amersfoort 39081679, Rabo 39.48.05.380 > > > > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Special thanks to the CF Community Suite Gold Sponsor - CFHosting.net http://www.cfhosting.net Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:184537 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
