[cfaussie] Re: Where have all the CF developers gone?

Many people (myself included) have raised this issue before.  Just make CFSCRIPT ECMA compliant (at least in regard to operators).

It would HAVE to be a very simply thing to do but MM/ADOBE have always said there were bigger fish to fry.

I guess with the upsurge in AJAX (and more people getting into JS now than ever before) it is starting to annoy enough people that we might get listened to.

Regards,
Gary

I've had something like this on the backburner for a while - create a
tag to enclose snippets of Java code.  The tag wraps the code with
appropriate Java class header/footers, saves it in a temp file,
creates an instance of javac and compiles the temporary file,
instantiates the resulting class and calls it.  You could hash the
source code and use the hash string in the temp file and class names
to save unnecessary recompiles if the temporary class or source
already existed.
