Peter would you take a minute to explain the TO section of your “bean machine”?  I’ve been using beans, DAOs and gateways and frankly I’m a little confused by what a BO (and now, TO) is for…

...Or you could cut your development of beans/getters/setters into basically nil! ;-)  [Shameless plug]  You could use an "semi-automated" bean creator like my Mach-II Bean Creator (thanks to Jon Block for the initial beaner as I expanded it).  It's a html/_javascript_ (ironically, no CFM needed to run it) based page that allows you to input your parameters into text boxes and it pops out a complete CFC bean for you to copy'n'paste.  Although, it's not completely foolproof or complete - it usually leaves me to set some defaults for numeric types usually - instead of typing out the whole bean.  Also, it includes an example bean button in the lower left that we create a sample bean to show you the easy to use syntax.

For more info, just see my blog entry.  There is a zip available for download in my downloads pod on the right as well  It's free...free I tell you...

You can allows check out a live version at:

Please be aware, I can't guarantee this link to be here forever - because I might clean it out someday without knowing it.  If you like it and want to use it, please just download it to use locally.  It's easy to modify the _javascript_ to change the syntax of the cfm code it generates to your in-house or personal specs (sorry for having to break up all of cfml tags in the _javascript_ - it wouldn't validate at the w3c unless I did).  Secondly, you don't have to use it to create full beans - I also use it if I just need a couple of getters and setters - just copy the section of the generated code you need.  It almost always open in a tab in my browser.  Beans are such low level coding - tedium to the max and they follow a simple format that doesn't ever change.
