I think that having multiple applications still may not be the most ideal
solution here, depending on whether all these directories do actually come
under the definition of standalone applications. If they don't, using a
single Application.cfc at the root, you could decide whether or not to check
the logged in session based on the requested template using the onRequest()
method. Something like:
...
<cffunction name="onRequest" output="true" returnType="void"
access="public">
<cfargument name="targetPage" type="String" required="true" />
<cfset doSecurityCheck() />
<cfinclude template="#arguments.targetPage#" />
</cffunction>
<cffunction name="doSecurityCheck" output="true" returnType="void"
access="private">
<cfargument name="targetPage" type="String" required="true" />
<!--- code to decide whether or not to check security based on the
requested page --->
<!--- code to do the security check and figure out what to do when
not secure --->
</cffunction>
...
Faced with a massive legacy application, I'd look to consolidating code,
however slowly, rather than creating new code that adds to the disarray.
