Re: [cfaussie] Companies Using ColdFusion

2015-09-08 Thread Andrew Scott
Adobe in my opinion have no clue about the product, serious bugs can take
them years to even fix and even if they do, there is no guarantee that they
will be released for current supported versions. Most times, they get
released with the next version only.

I raised a concurrency issue with ColdFusion 10, that is really a serious
issue with the Application scope and it took Adobe 3-4 years to actually
fix it. Nobody can wait that length of time while trying to get work done.

​Most places still using ColdFusion are 3 or more versions behind the
current version, which is obviously a cost factor in upgrading.

I mean Windows 10 has been stable for a very long time, Adobe had the
chance to make sure they released connectors that would work on Windows 10
and yet, to this date I haven't seen any updates for it. They only have
themselves to blame.​

Andrew Scott

Largely because its not Free, and as such people over many years didn’t use it 
because of the cost.

 

All the main stream competitors are 100% free

 

PHP

Ruby

ASP

Java

Node

 

The list goes on. Railo & Lucee came too late to the party to make a big 
difference.

 

I don’t think the tag based nature of writing code for so many years appealed 
to hard core devs also, fixed now but too late.

For sure man. People have been defending cf for years saying that nope, it
is not going anywhere, but now even the most prolific bloggers in the cf
community have all but jumped ship (not a stab at them, by the way). There
will be a CF12, maybe a CF13, but I'd say that's about it. There are still
jobs out there, though. Porting a big-enough app to a different language is
neither easy nor cheap, and some company can't be bothered or don't have
the forethought to do it in the first place. We're becoming the new cobol
developers, guys. Yay.

Hi

Thanks for your reply

Can you clarify your very last comment re becoming the new cobol developer guys 
???

I am working part time in a company who's main system is written in cobol would 
love to work on the system to improve it however I have no cobol experience and 
they would only seek experienced cobol developers g

I have good cd skills and have solo built system from the ground up that 
processes over 1.5mill in payments per month. But finding work where I can 
automate existing manual processes for companies by building admin apps for 
them is like finding a needle in a hay stack. My site is www.Samaris.net

I raised a concurrency issue with ColdFusion 10, that is really a serious issue 
with the Application scope and it took Adobe 3-4 years to actually fix it. 
Nobody can wait that length of time while trying to get work done.

 

​Most places still using ColdFusion are 3 or more versions behind the current 
version, which is obviously a cost factor in upgrading.

 

I mean Windows 10 has been stable for a very long time, Adobe had the chance to 
make sure they released connectors that would work on Windows 10 and yet, to 
this date I haven't seen any updates for it. They only have themselves to
