In this case the extension is a "root component" that provides some basic services to all CFCs. It's documented here if you care: http://www.depressedpress.com/depressedpress/Content/Development/ColdFusion/ DPLibraries/Documentation/DocViewer.cfm?Component=cfc_DepressedPress.DP_Comp onent It has things like dump and error management methods, generic getter/setter methods and so forth - nothing application specific at all. I'm not sure if this is the right way to do things... but it does work fine for me (at least until now!) ;^) Jim Davis ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Find out how CFTicket can increase your company's customer support efficiency by 100% http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=49 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:214243 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
