What is this 'framework code' you talk of? It isn't a modified version of Farcry is it?

Hi Tim,

No, it's a framework called autobean I developed in my own time after MXDU to help make development with CFCs faster and the resulting application more scalable - I had sent it to Barrie and a few others off-list. A short list of features:

- Pooled instances (you can write a whole app in cfcs but then have almost all requests never calling createObject),
- Support for interfaces (should have been in CFMX from the start IMHO),
- Definition of properties via cfproperty to support automatic getters and setters and provide info to an extensible persistence service (commit function copies all updates and creates back into whatever persistence implementation is provided),
- Cache function return values and exceptions, and
- Hierachical locking (so that a lock named "a" will block "ab", "abc", "aeee"


I used it on a Flex/CF application currently in production at Macromedia. Main problem is that there's no documentation (although there are pretty verbose comments in the code) and I'm in the process of refactoring it into a new, smaller framework with one extra core feature that I've since worked out how to implement.

I'm happy to share the code with people, contact me off list if you want to look at it. I don't want to put it up on an ftp site because without documentation it's really not suitable for general release, however there's possibly a bit you could pick up just reading through the code.

Cheers,
