Isaac, You forget... we're "ColdFusion Developers" and not "Programmers" of any sort. Remember? How are we to be taken seriously by "real programmers" on any subject relating to "true OO implementations of anything"?
Hence, even if it works and we *think* it's similar to something we read in a Java book a while back, we're just not educated enough to understand. Really, what would any of us know about "real programming" or the need for such deep and heavy-duty conecpts as polymorphism i.e. overloaded constructors or multiple inheritance, interfaces, or dependency injection? I'm just completely relieved that we have such tremendous Java knowledge around here to help keep us all in our place... because ColdFusion is the tool of interface designers and really has no place in the Enterprise-class application development arena. Next time I'm tempted to write something like Macromedia.com in pure CFMX, I'll remember that I'm not supposed to do that... because it's too slow, and I don't know enough to make it work. Alas... and here I was starting to think I actually knew something about software development... oh well... Laterz! J On 4/26/05, S.
