Worth a try. but note also: if you just do a “switch workspace” (in the menu) you may find the freezes stop, too. Of course, that gives you a new blank workspace. You need to re-import projects and other stuff. But sometimes that sort of reset fixes something. Note that you can always switch back to your previous workspace, to either review what had been set there, or just to go back if setting up a new one is too painful.

One may go down the list and say “well, only a few of the 14 listed paid-only features seem interesting to me”. OK, but so many people using CFB never setup a server connection (or don’t get it working right), whether it’s a remote server or even just their local development server. Perhaps half the real benefits of CFB (over other editors) are related to its getting info from the CF server, whether about code insight to access CFC methods and db tables/cols, as well as files that are accessible only using admin mappings, and so on. Then many other features are only really helpful if they can have access to all files on the server, not just necessarily those in a specific project, like the code hyperlinking (where you ctrl-hover over a file and it opens, which only works for files in the current directory or web-relative paths if you don’t have a server connection), the refactoring and quick-fix features, searching files on the server, the log viewing (viewing logs on the server within the IDE, using the Tail View), and more. Then there’s also the step debugger (but I know some will never use one, or many struggle to get it to work, because again it requires connection to the server, even if that’s “local”). There are more, but you asked for “some”. Since you asked, Scott, are any of those things that you feel you have missed, or that others you see using it may have? :-) /charlie From: ad...@acfug.org [mailto:ad...@acfug.org] On Behalf Of Scott Dowling Sent: Friday, August 23, 2013 11:28 PM To: discussion@acfug.org Subject: Re: [ACFUG Discuss] ColdFusion Builder freezes abruptly Charlie, Mind pointing out some of the over looked features in the pay version?

It’s called CFBuilder Express. While it withholds things from the paid version, I find that many people never ever use a lot of those things so won’t miss them. That said, it’s a shame that so many do miss those features. They’re what make CFB standout as a true IDE as compared to other editors. /charlie From: ad...@acfug.org [mailto:ad...@acfug.org] On Behalf Of troy Sent: Friday, August 16, 2013 9:36 AM To: discussion@acfug.org Subject: RE: [ACFUG Discuss] ColdFusion Builder freezes abruptly That’s been my experience with it for the most part as well, Cameron. I used CF Builder 2 for some time at my last job and just found that there were too many “foibles” to want to invest in it when moving to my current job. I am back to using the free IDE that I started with many years ago that has a few problems, but it’s free. That said, I’d love to see the product become more reliable and more reasonably priced as I’d consider using it again with those caveats.
