Thank you as well for the clarification. I work with java as oppose
to Coldfusion. I know absolutely nothing about Coldfusion.

I totally disagree. With a version control system like SVN, the
problems
you mentioned above would be resolve. I work in a shared development
environment with a total of 13 programmers. We all work in parallel
on one
project. Svn manages any conflicts and keep our code in sync. For
large
projects, I highly recommend SVN coupled with good project
management skills
for more efficient software development.
It's rare that the same solution fits all cases, so there is certainly
room for interpretation. However, working on ColdFusion code on one
central server does present alot of challenges when different members
of the team are editing files such as Application.cfc or other core
includes. This can be managed in some cases, but there are plenty of
situations where someone edits a file central to the entire app which
puts everyone's work at a halt for a period of time.
Working on a central server and giving each developer their own folder
and/or port, or setting up CF as multi-instance are good ways to keep
developers from stepping on each other's toes too.
For my teams, more recently we're just about always setup to do
development on each local workstation. Local workstation development
is particularly valuable when team members may be working remotely
some or all of the time, or intermittently connected.
Doing development from an airplane is difficult when using a shared
server, for example.
In the end though, there is no "one uber solution" - it's what works
best for your team.
YMMV.
