Unless I am not following you're train of thought, couldn't you just
reference session.userbean in your DAO directly? it would be instance
specific then, correct?
Basically, you wouldn't inject a specific instance of the userbean,
you inject the refence (via session.userbean). I don't think there is
really a nicer way to do that...at least not directly from within the
coldspring config.

I’m grabbing onto Coldspring as a terrific way to keep all my

and all.
Brilliant! I thought using a CFCFactory was the bees knees, now
I can see this goes even further again.
Now I’m coming up against another issue I’m not sure how to do.
As part of the audit trail on changes in the database, I always
record the time a record was updated, and the userID of the person
doing the updating.
BEFORE COLDSPRING:
Pass in the user’s Session.UserBean (created into the session
scope when he logs in) to the DAO when it’s instantiated, and
then create a variables.userid in the Init() method of the DAO.
This variables.userid is used in all the methods of the cfc to
record who did any changes to the database.
WITH COLDSPRING:
How? How do I pass in this current user’s session.userbean to
the DAO as an argument?
I’m assuming I add the userbean to the coldspring.xml as another
<constructor-arg … but how do I make sure that coldspring injects
this current user’s session.userbean?
Here’s the coldspring.xml relating to this DAO currently:
<bean id="MerchMajorCategoryDAO"
class="admin.cfcs.Merchandise.MerchMajorCategoryDAO">
<constructor-arg name="argsConfiguration"><ref
bean="ConfigurationBean" /></constructor-arg>
</bean>
