Now /this/ is where things get interesting! The "framework explorer" is the place to put this logic in CFE. No clicking needed, all automatic-stylez. While that doesn't help CFB out at all, what I'd like to see is both editors offering extension points that somehow allow us to have one version of the framework explorer (split back off into it's own plugin) that could contribute to both. Probably impossible, currently, but still. It would be soooooo cool if we could find some stuff that both the Open Source Community and Adobe could sorta collaborate on, while still furthering the individual goals of each project. FWIW, I've split out a lot of the things in CFE that might be useful in places besides Eclipse (the dictionaries, the formatter, the parser, and a deal for storing cfml project-related info) into their own projects. This will provide a base for things like code-coverage tools and whatnot to leverage, which I feel is important to CFML as a language, and has been lacking thus far. For the peeps. :DeN -- Man is most nearly himself when he achieves the seriousness of a child at play.
