I wouldn't say that CFC's "directly" support wireless apps - but they do make them easier to use because they further abstract your services for your site. So, for example, if you have index.cfm for your 'normal' web requests and index_wap.cfm for your wireless requests, both could use the same CFC. Since you aren't duplicating effort and code, things are better all around.
Does that make sense? This is just one example, of course. You could easily make the CFC do sniffing to determine if you should return results in a WAP format or HTML. Or, even better, use _another_ CFC that has methods to auto-format for WAP. ======================================================================= Raymond Camden, ColdFusion Jedi Master for Macromedia Email : [EMAIL PROTECTED] Yahoo IM : morpheus "My ally is the Force, and a powerful ally it is." - Yoda > -----Original Message----- > From: Jeffry Houser [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Tuesday, June 18, 2002 10:37 AM > To: CF-Talk > Subject: CFC's and Wireless Applications (Re: Adam Churvis's > CFUN02 Presentation) > > > I'm not sure if there was a hand-out on Adam Churvis' CFUN-02 > Presentation (I can't find it in my little book), but.. > > I seem to remember a slide that said that one of the uses > of ColdFusion > Components was for Wireless Applications, but no detail was > ever gone into > it. > > What about ColdFusion Components allows you to create Wireless > Applications that cannot be done with other aspects of ColdFusion > Development? > > > -- > Jeffry Houser | mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Need a Web Developer?
