Meeting URL: http://experts.acrobat.com/cfmeetup/ Duration: Approx. 1 hour Our talk for Thursday, June 12 will have Dan Wilson presenting "Refactoring in ColdFusion: From Procedural to OO". Description: (provided by the speaker) If you would like to know how to migrate an existing procedurally programmed application into an object oriented one, grab a chair and sit for a while. We'll discuss some sensible guidelines designed to help you make incremental changes towards OO nirvana. We'll also look at lots of code samples, we all like code samples, right?
