Hey there (what's your name, btw?), The Manhatten Project a écrit : > "Coldfusion (for crying out loud!) "
I admit to gratuituous slight bashing due to possibly obsolete encounters with the technology, quite a few years back. I used ColdFusion back when Allaire still existed... At the time, I didn't like it at all, for a number of reasons: way too closed a dev universe, way too little horsepower, clumsy syntax, difficulty for MVC-like practices, and the like. Then Macromedia (yeah, noticed your e-mail address) bought Allaire, turned HomeSite into something a bit bulky, and started working on ColdFusion at some point. I hear all kinds of things now, so for all I know, it's better. It's certainly still out there, which amazes me a bit. (But then, diversity is good for competition and innovation, isn't it?) I just, on principle, wouldn't buy into a non-OSS server-side tech. So I go RoR now, and use PHP or J2EE-related FLOSS stacks when I must. But again, and for the record: I'm absolutely no CF expert, and my rare experiences with it are way old. It seems much like the outsider in the server-side world though, so "for crying out loud!" also referred to its, er... exotic label now? :-) -- Christophe Porteneuve aka TDD [EMAIL PROTECTED] --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Spinoffs" group.
