>>That may be your opinion, No, it's my experience.
>>but the stark reality is that object-orientation has taken over the vast >>majority of the programming world. This is the problem: people do OO because it is a la mode, not because it is useful. Using a framework IS good WHEN it is useful. For simple programming projects it is a useless hassle. And most of CF project are just simple trivial projects that do not require things like OO or FB or anything like that. In the project I worked, the home page includes more than 100 files, makes about 50 queries, but only about 12 different queries, some are repeated more than 5 times!!! BUT it is Fusebox and OOP ! Big deal ! ;-)) If you're not a good programmer, these techniques won't make you any better, If you're a good programmer, you know when it is better to use them or better not to use them. -- _______________________________________ REUSE CODE!
