Inheritance,encaptualtion etc...are defined concepts of OO design, of which CF aint. I appreciate what you are saying as when I developed using VB C++ programmers used to argue tht VB was a pile of rubbish as it didn't support true inheritance (which it doesn't). But then you could develop about 20 times more quickly in it than you could in C so who cares!......Same argument goes with CF - learn to live with it's shortcomings and once you realise what it's supposed to do you'll see that it does it extremely well.

To me, and to most developers, it will be inheritance and they will enjoy the feature. I can understand that you think the inheritance we have isn't perfect - fine - tell us how we can imporve it for next release, but to say we don't have inheritance is just plain silly. ======================================================================= Raymond Camden, Principal Spectra Compliance Engineer for Macromedia Email : [EMAIL PROTECTED] Yahoo IM : morpheus "My ally is the Force, and a powerful ally it is." - Yoda > -----Original Message----- > From: Matt Liotta [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Monday, April 29, 2002 6:29 PM > To: CF-Talk > Subject: RE: I like CFMX > > > Sure it's fair.
