Mike You can do that today withCFEverywhere, using BlueDragon J2ee
It is technically possible with CFMX 7, except it does a file write during startup (validating the License). If Macromedia would/has resolved this then it will work. The second issue is licensing/pricing/redistro. AFAIK, Macromedia has no plans to offer this for CFMX7-- Several of us have lobbied pretty hard for it! New Atlanta has a flexible policy for BDj2ee-- Phil Cruz has one CFEverywhere product, CFCDoc, where he redistros BDj2ee in an app costing $29 (maybe $39) I don't know the details of Phil's arrangement, but New Atlanta people have expressed a willingness to do what it takes-- give them a call! Phil & I have tried to gather everything CFEverywhere at a forum/blog/links at his site: http://philcruz.com/cfeverywhere/ the DJ article is linked there as well. while you are at the site, visit Phil's blog and help him win a Mac mini Dick There are only two things of importance. One is the customer, and the other is the product. If you take care of customers, they come back. If you take care of your product, it doesn't come back. It's just that simple. And it's just that difficult. -Stanley Marcus On Feb 6, 2005, at 9:14 PM, Mike Kear wrote: > Thanks Sean. not good news for us though - it means the new version > goes close, but not close enough to be able to just hand people CDs > and have the apps work.
