I don't see it as Adobe's place to tell me how to write code, which is essentially what a framework of any type does. In the same way that Sun doesn't distribute frameworks for Java, I don't see this as a job for Adobe. I would be ok with them making CF more "friendly" to Hibernate-like frameworks - compiling CFCs as discrete Java classes rather than a bunch of classes, one for each function, for example. > Grails is built on top of Java, just as much as ColdFusion > is. So what is your point? While CF is a Java application, from the CF developer's perspective it's a programming language. Frameworks aren't incorporated in programming languages for a very good reason - people have different opinions about which frameworks to use. > But one can dream.....
