I've had this question for a little while now and I'm tired of waiting for
the book or a FAQ. So here goes: When I have multiple nested FuseBox apps
(I call them FuseApps), how do you deal with a situation where you need
certain code to execute with every single page access, no matter where? I
got the impression from the FuseBox spec that we want to avoid using
Application.cfm so that we can use our FuseApps as Modules (which I still
haven't seen the need to do) - so fine, I include an app_globals in the
root of each app (included by the FuseBox (index.cfm)) . I have each
app_globals file in each nested directory including the one in the
directory above it:
So:
root/index.cfm includes root/app_globals.cfm
root/products/index.cfm includes products/app_globals.cfm, which includes
root/app_globals.cfm
root/products/wheels/index.cfm includes app_globals.cfm, which includes
products/app_globals.cfm, which includes root/app_globals.cfm
End result of all of this is that every time I access a page in the deepest
level, 12-15 files are being processed by the CF Server! This has GOT to be
a performance hit, and not the most efficient way to do this.... Can't we
just use application.cfm.... or can someone demonstrate why it is
preferable not to?
While I am writing, is it appropriate to move control of the browser from
one app to a subapp using CFLOCATION, or are we supposed to stick to using
CFINCLUDE every time, no matter what, and have the root FuseBox control
everything - I am not sure, but I think I noticed the eBags site using
CFLOCATION to move to subdirectories.
Thanks!
Avi
