In some ways you are right, but for code reuse I still believe the
custom tag is the way to go.
Say you put the code in /webroot/myIncludes/myReusableCode.cfm.
Someone working in /webroot/Application1/SubApp1/report would have to
use either
or if
the /webroot is mapped correctly

If that is the case, I would recommend making it a cus

A cfc does seem to be going overboard to me. I like the UDF Idea
personally.

+1 to making it a custom tag in the server's default custom tag
directory.

Custom tag is just that: a bit of code that can be called in a single
tag,
that's all. Nothing 'overkill&

computation. seems fairly straightforward.

If that is the case, I would recommend making it a custom tag and sticking
rocess for sharing code
in-house so I could see whatever method I choose turning into a sort of default
method of code reuse (even when not appropriate). Also, I'm thinking if I'm

"Do not use client scope."

If you think about it, this is exactly what frameworks do. For instance, with
Mach-II you map a directory to the Mach-II framework folder, and all of your
Mach-II apps use that directory for the core files.
The disadvantage is that your shared files are just that- shared. You need to
make sure
Thanks Aaron. Did you notice any downside to this? Anything that you
could share is helpful.

I know of a couple of in house frameworks that do just this. One for

for 20+ sites. Instead of copying that pack of tags to each site they all
point to a common spot that stores just one copy of them. That way when a

Hey every one,
I have around 9 web sites that all use copies of an original set of
code. I have converted most of the code to use CFCs which has been a
big help. I'm still having a hard time with some of the other code
that is used on all the sites.

Hope the topic is not OT. I'm not sure if Dr. Carma
