I have a different application. The config files in my system are stored as
".cfm" files. They are still XML... but they do not have a "cfoutput" so
they do not display to the screen.

1. Do this in your "application.cfm" file.

<cfset request.doEnd = TRUE>
<cfsetting enablecfoutputonly="Yes" showdebugoutput="No">

2. If you use "OnRequestEnd.cfm" for output... do this...

<cfparam name="request.doEnd" default="FALSE">
<cfif request.doEnd>
... code ...
</cfif>

You can do more... but I have agreed with that point for a season. This how
I would resolve it. This demands that output be "declared"... and it is a
good process... and it also eliminates much white space! (More of an issue
in previous versions of coldfusion though.

Subject: [CFCDev] Mach-ii config file


I'm surprised that the Mach-II skeleton framework has the main
Mach-II.xml config file in the webroot so that anyone can browse
directly to /config/mach-ii.xml and read all your events etc. I just
feel uncomfortable with exposing the inners of my application, so I've
moved my config file up one level to hide it.

I'm not a security/hacker expert, so was just wondering if anyone can
say whether I'm worrying about nothing? On the flip side, when I was
learning Mach-ii a few weeks ago, I found it useful to look up other
live mach-ii.xml files and see what others are doing.
