it's not exactly mysterious... MG uses coldspring internally so setting modelglue_parent_bean_factory to point to your app scoped bean factory allows MG to set this as the parent bean factory for it's internal cs instance.
you can then access beans from your app scope factory in your mg app. as an example, I might have a single instance of reactor or transfer defined in my app bean factory which can be used within multiple mg apps chris On 14/02/2009, coldfusionjunkie <[email protected]> wrote: > > I'm looking to use app scoped variables in my ColdSpring config in a M- > G app. From the various posts I've seen, they all seem to come back > to creating a bean factory on my own and setting it to the application > scope, and then setting it to this mysterious > ModelGlue_PARENT_BEAN_FACTORY variable in my index.cfm.
