I've done the XMI to CFC thing, so have others. What we *really* need is
reverse engineering, which means the ability to parse a package of CFCs
and generate the appropriate XMI. The problem is that XMI is fragmented
to a point where it would be difficult to support a wide range of tools
(maybe things have gotten better?)

I got about 1/2 way through my own parser when I decided to give up.
Hopefully someday CFEclipse or some other tool will support
reverse/roundtrip engineering of CFCs.

I just wrote an ActionScript 2.0 code generator that takes an .xmi file 
as import (most uml programs will export to .xmi).  It will be released 
on the osflash.org website pretty soon, licensed under the GPL.  The 
only reason the source code isn't available yet is because I'm waiting 
for a project to be set up on osflash, and the admin is away on vacation

for the next week (or 2, or 3, I dont know for sure).  The code-gen was 
written in Java SWT, so it's cross platform with a native look and feel.

It would be *very* easy to extend to generate ColdFusion components 
instead of ActionScript Classes from a class diagram.  I personally do 
all of my modeling in ArgoUML.

How interested would you be in a CFC code generator?  I can probably 
have it complete by Monday evening (depending on how much time I can 
work on it this weekend).
