I've been working with a large open-source java app lately, a combination of spring managed beans, some velocity legacy stuff, and newer code written w/ hibernate + JSF.
The spring stuff has really caught my attention, and when I got to thinking about it, I said "hey, this wouldn't be that hard to do w/ cfcs". Now I'm strictly talking spring managed beans, not the entire framework. I spent a few hours and banged out a proof of concept, and came to the conclusion that -yes, this is possible -yes, this would be useful After that I did some googling and found the hollywood project: http://hollywood.tigris.org The server is terribly slow (or my connection sucks). Does anyone here use it? Thoughts, experiences? Any other IoC CF stuff out there? I'm not sure if they are using the spring beans dtd... that's something I decided to do because it promotes the future possibility of merging a cfc bean factory with a java bean factory. I also wanted to keep it as plug-able as possible, with extensions for popular frameworks. I have autowiring working (implemented early cuz it's a 'wow' feature), and nothing is cooler than adding a setFoo(foo f) and knowing that a fully instantiated, configured instance of whatever foo is will be knocking at your door come init(). -Dave Ross ---------------------------------------------------------- You are subscribed to cfcdev.
