I don't have anything in mind ... yet. I'm probably just too practical for my own
good, already thinking "So how can i put this to good use" on the second day. But 2
things stand out.

You can fully implement OO in Java ... so is it practical or useful to write all the
classes you would need in a cf app as java classes? or not? pros and cons?

The java library might be useful ... i'm not familiar enough to tell how though.

Oh, and your example of a pre-built class sounds interesting. Is there something
similar to cflib.org - sharing java classes?

Subject: RE: [CFCDev] Java in CF?


I had a time once when I needed a string comparison routine that was written
in Java converted to CFML.  I found that using the methods on a Java String
objects instead of the CF string functions allowed a much easier port of
that routine.  I didn't have to rework the logic involving zero-based array
indexing in Java over to one-based array indexing in CF, which can get quite
tricky.

There are all sorts of reasons to utilize Java inside of CF.  What did you
have in mind?
