Pessoal, li isso aqui na lista CF-Talk e acredito ser de interesse de todos. Diz respeito aos detalhes do Blackstone, o novo CF... Vale a pena ganhar um tempinho com isso aqui. Ahhh, foi o Doug James quem mandou.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> All, Below are my notes taken from Ben Forta's talk at CF-UN. None of what is listed below is guaranteed to be included in Blackstone. Due to time constraints, he could only show a little but apparently some of his talks at user groups have been going 3+ hours. Doug Timeline: - CFMX 6.1 updater this fall - not critical - wrapper for many hotfixes - new JDBC drivers - Blackstone beta will be released this fall - Blackstone will be available first quarter 2005 Goals of Blackstone - make new developers more successful in building applications - give current developers features they can use - emphasis given to end user features - improved deployment reliability Data Entry Enhancements - skinnable forms (changes the look of the form background) - built in XForms support - W3C standard <http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/Forms/> - cfform will generate XForms - can be styled and rendered via XSL - tags that produce applets (for example: cftree and cfgrid) will be replaced with flash output - ability to render forms via flash - demonstated some very slick forms that included a tabbed interface and an accordian interface Printing - add cfdocument tag - natively produce pdf and flashpaper (http://www.macromedia.com/software/contribute/productinfo/flashpaper/) output Reporting - cfreport tag - massively expanded - uses new report builder to create an XML report definition that is used to produce the output report Deployment - can deploy in bytecode format - no cfm's - can produce a stand '.war' or '.ear' file that can be dropped into java application server - enterprise version will have ability to create multiple instances right from the cf-administrator Gateways - the CF server will have the ability to listen for and respond to anything that can produce a certain type of java event - developers can build a gateway to interact with the CF server - demonstrated a file drop gateway - produced a text file and placed it into a directory - the gateway produced the event - CF server responded and picked the file out of the directory and displayed its contents on the web page automagically - Macromedia supposedly has a telnet session interacting with CF --^---------------------------------------------------------------- This email was sent to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] EASY UNSUBSCRIBE click here: http://topica.com/u/?b1dnXn.b7M5gI.YXJxdWl2 Or send an email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For Topica's complete suite of email marketing solutions visit: http://www.topica.com/?p=TEXFOOTER --^----------------------------------------------------------------
