Because people are building large applications. Because people want to build applications that can be understood. Because people want applications that are not brittle when changed. > I've read though several,.... not going to mention names here... but you > read it and it makes you think.. wow .. i thought I understood OOP but > maybe I don't. > Factories... abstraction... models... patterns... that's too much crap for > someone to learn. Yup. And in general in OO training you might have had at Uni. or whatever is totally useless for a modern environment, where you do have Factories and Workers and so on. > I feel like anybody who's trying to learn CFMX need not worry about whether > or not they know OOP or any of these crazy buzzwords. Your feelings are spot on. > Is there such a resource? There are several blogs and web sites out there (mine included :-) ) that talk about how to build things in a nice OO fashion. The rouble is, 'recommended way' means very different things to different people writing different applications. If all you're doing is slinging the results of 'select *' into a HTML table, there's no point writing a whole multi-tier'ed, dependancy-injected, object-relation-modeled CFML application. -- Tom Chiverton Helping to globally streamline cutting-edge channels On: http://thefalken.livejournal.com **************************************************** This email is sent for and on behalf of Halliwells LLP.
