You are correct.  And it *should* overwrite any conflicts (trying to
think of a situation where this wouldn't happen, but so far, can't think
of any)

thank you all. your explanations were all very clear. my biggest
concern was that if an application.cfm was *not* included in an
fb3 app, cf would look for it all the way up to the root (per
forta). if that were the case, would fbx_settings overwrite any
potential conflict?

Keep in mind that you can't stop CF from including the nearest
Application.cfm automatically. To avoid problems you should
ALWAYS have
an Application.cfm in the applicationroot. If you don't want to
use it,
just have one CR/LF in the file (because CF can't handle empty
templates).

Hi Dina,

Application.cfm just isn't necessary in FB - it's not even
necessary in
CF. Some people have one to check to make sure that the
individual fuse
files aren't being called directly, but even that's really up to
the
individual. All the functions normally put in Application.cfm are
put in
fbx_settings.cfm instead, where they can be inherited/overridden
by
child circuits.

Also, application.cfm is specific to the ColdFusion application
framework. There are versions of FB3 for PHP and JSP, which work
in the
same way as a framework - only the actual coding syntax changes
(I can
only confirm this for PHP actually, haven't ever used JSP). So by
not
relying on something CF-specific, it's easier to port across to
different languages.

Anyway, that's my understanding. Hope that clears up some of the
confusion. Someone else may be able to explain it more clearly :)

Kay.
