Those are the biggest and the best in the biz and the only ones really worth mentioning, whereby BEA is as far as I know is the best of them all and has by far more customers then say iPlanet. Sure JBoss would be nice, but that's open source, why bother. > > > and underneath is Java, and therefore this problem will be gone. > > I'm sorry, I still don't see how this follows. Java does have a lot more possibilities then CF. I know of several J2EE Servers that store either the whole or part of Application files directly in the DB. So, if these Servers (BEA being one of them) can already do this, why shouldn't I be able to do it with ColdFusion running on such a Server? Also, you will be able to mix CF with JSP tags, so you could probably write your own JSP customTag which uses Standard Java API's to do just that what this thread is all about. > > pre-compile ability and deployment is quite exciting though, am I right in > thinking that this'll remove the need to encrypt cfml files as they'll be > java bytecode? or is this just as vulnerable? I take it you will have Java Bytecode and therefore no need to encrypt your cfml files, but of course there are decomilers, but it is a little more difficult then decrypting CF Files (if that is even possible...:) > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > > Sent: 14 November 2001 17:08 > > To: CF-Talk > > Subject: RE: binary stream (image) output to the browser > > > > > > It seems to me that after reading through the neo white paper that > > ColdFusion itself will be a J2EE app deployed in any > > Complient J2EE app server, > > therefore all your coldFusion code will be parsed by this > > J2EE app called > > ColdFusion, and underneath is Java, and therefore this > > problem will be gone.
