I'd say the debugging information with order of execution and execution times and templates and paths is most useful for this. It tells you what templates are being executed and where.

I have inherited a fusebox4.0 app to maintain that has dozens of circuits that are reused all over the place. I know that's how fusebox is supposed to work, and it makes sense to reuse the fuses, but wow it takes AGES to follow the flow of the program. And i end up with dozens of files open, all called circuit.xml.cfm so its easy to make a mistake following it all along. For example I have to figure out how something works, so i can maintain it, or build something else similar. In order to find out how the task works, i follow one xml file through, seeing dozens of fuses, all of which i have to go to, open the circuits.xml.cfm relating to it, follow that one along, then open more. By the time i've got to the final, actual coldfusoin type tags relating to the functionality, i've almost forgotten what it was i started out to do. Is there a shortcut to working out how everything's bolted together? If i keep taking hours to work out the simplest things i'm not going to last long on this assignment. -- Cheers Mike Kear Windsor, NSW, Australia Adobe Certified Advanced ColdFusion Developer AFP Webworks http://afpwebworks.com ColdFusion, PHP, ASP, ASP.NET hosting from AUD$15/month ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Enterprise web applications, build robust, secure scalable apps today - Try it now ColdFusion Today ColdFusion 8 beta - Build next generation apps Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:284520 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
