====================================================================== Next Event - Thursday, 27 April 2006 ====================================================================== Model Glue and Reactor, a winning combination ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The Model Glue is a MVC (Model - View - Controller) based framework for ColdFusion applications. It provides a way to easily link your presentation layer (view) to your model layer by the use of controllers. Model Glue provides configuration and powerful control over over this "gluing" of your layers through XML files. Working along side it is the Reactor framework, a "Inline Dynamic Data Abstraction" API, which allows you to very quickly and easily access your database model without the need to write SQL or configure Data Access Objects.In this presentation Mark Drew will be presenting what these frameworks are in detail (and what they are not!) and also develop from scratch a blog application using these two frameworks to demonstrate the power and speed that you can gain in your development environment.
