[cfaussie] Re: Why buy into CF?

And when Windows Vista comes along, MS Studio changes the rules again as all objects will be xaml and a new learning curve begins again.       Senior Coldfusion Developer Aegeon Pty.

Allaire/MM/Adobe have been tweaking things under the hood, but my applications continue to work without modifications. What I would like to see from Adobe take from .Net is the amount of objects that have been exposed in to the developer. That is, I would like to see more JAVA objects exposed. For example, I would like to see a CFZIP tag, and how about CFIMAGE or CFSLEEP. There is pletty of stuff in the JVM - it just need to be made easier to access. I would also like to see ADOBE release a free version of CF with the only restriction being the number of concurrent hits - say 5. That would encourage more people to play with it at home and build up their skills. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "cfaussie" group.
