Check out Adalon at www.synthis.com  They have a community version for MX
which produces CFC'S?  Out of the box, the model produces fusedocs and fuses
for fusebox 3.0.

Subject: [CFCDev] CFC modeling


I am currently doing work for a large public company that is having a
bit of a political rift in terms of application platforms. Basically,
the people in power like .NET and the people with money like CF since
my group is using CF and is the only one making money. Anyway, we have
a large CFC-based application that we are currently fighting to keep in
CF. As part of the fight, we are trying to remove the myth that CFML is
a toy language. Unfortunately, we were asked to produce an object model
document for this particular application. I won't bore you with any
more details. The problem in a nutshell is that we need CFC modeling
tool and explaining that one does not exist would really hurt our
position since object modeling is an important part of enterprise
software development --at least in their eyes.

Anyway, I spent about a week seeing what I could come up with in terms
of a tool. The results are promising, but I am now out of time and
really unsure of direction from this point since I don't normally do
modeling. I have the following implemented.

1. Adapt a He3 CFC parse tree into an EMF object (with lots of
limitations)
2. Draw a UML-like diagram based on EMF objects
3. Generate a CFC based on an EMF object

With the above, I was able to write a program to draw a diagram of the
CFCs used in my application and then print said diagram solving my
needs. However, it seems like I have solved most of the hard problems
with modeling CFCs and would like to take things further; possibly with
help from others.

Thoughts?
