Ant ROCKS! I used to want to mirror the environments too, going so far as making VM images and whatnot (pretty cool). Now I use a set of Ant scripts (cfdistro) for doing various kinds of WAR builds and deployments. Each project has it's own settings, and can be deployed in all manner of ways (even a single executable jar file, that just expands the embedded war to the temp directory). Theoretically, across a variety of CFML engines, too (I only really test on Railo, but there's some stuff for ACF already, and OBD is on the way). CFDistro is already in the wild, but I'm not being loud about it until it's a little more user friendly. It's a great resource for doing just about everything you can do with Ant, tho. :) When I'm ready to have some brave souls test it out I'll make some noise, but feel free to hit me up if you're wondering how to do something like this using Ant. :den -- Attempt easy tasks as if they were difficult, and difficult as if they were easy; in the one case that confidence may not fall asleep, in the other that it may not be dismayed.
