ColdFusion code can access Java class files via , and these files can be auto loaded if necessary. To auto load a JAR file simply place it in the webroot/WEB-INF/classes directory. (Applies to: ColdFusion MX)
ColdFusion code can access Java archive files (JAR files), and can auto load these if necessary. To auto load a JAR file simply place it in the webroot/WEB-INF/lib directory. (Applies to: ColdFusion MX)
ColdFusion SESSION variables may be managed by either ColdFusion or the underlying J2EE server. Both are used the same way (just refer to SESSION.variable), but the way they are stored is different as is the way they are identified (ColdFusion uses a CFID and CFTOKEN, J2EE uses a jsessionid). J2EE...
JSP tags and tag libraries are accessible in CFML via the tag. When is used a PREFIX is specified, and the value passed to PREFIX is the namespace into which the tag is loaded. Calls to JSP tags must use that prefix in the format of (the JSP syntax). (Applies to: ColdFusion MX)
A sandbox is a virtual entity governed by rules that you define. Sandboxes allow you to secure specific data sources, the use of some tags and functions, specific files and directories, and even IP addresses and ports so that only certain users may access them. Server sandboxes are an ideal...
is used to invoke ColdFusion Components and to consume Web Services. Arguments may be passed to CFC's and Web Services in two ways, either as NAME=value pairs in , or passed to tags which must be enclosed within and tags. (Applies to: ColdFusion MX)
Debugging an application? Being able to write your own output along with the ColdFusion debug output would help significantly, and now you can do just that using . This new tag will dump variables and their contents, expressions, and more, into the debug output making application debugging a whole...
