Since 1.2 is available, I thought I'd take another stab at getting FW/1 running on OpenBD...
I've already made all the syntax changes to the framework core code necessary to run on OpenBD after my last attempt (boy do I miss the struct and array literals that Adobe ColdFusion and Railo have supported for several years - glad to see it's on your roadmap... for 1.4, right?). I constructed a test bed where I could create an instance of FW/1 and call all the methods "as-if" it were being called in the regular Application.cfc lifecycle and that worked (after I'd added a couple of isObject() tests to get around the not-quite-null method return problem). I was able to get the sample apps running in the test bed. Good progress. Then I tried the Application.cfc extends org.corfield.framework approach - with the exact same framework.cfc that worked in the test bed. With some debugging in place I could see that it would call onApplicationStart() and onRequestStart(). However, onRequestStart() aborted pretty much immediately with a "Data not Supported" exception and no stack trace. Code that ran just fine when called directly, simply failed when used as a base class for Application.cfc... First off, has anyone encountered any problems with Application.cfc extending another CFC on OpenBD? Second, does anyone want to volunteer to help get debug FW/1 on OpenBD? -- Sean A Corfield -- (904) 302-SEAN Railo Technologies US -- http://getrailo.com/ An Architect's View -- http://corfield.org/ "If you're not annoying somebody, you're not really alive." -- Margaret Atwood -- Open BlueDragon Public Mailing List http://www.openbluedragon.org/ http://twitter.com/OpenBlueDragon mailing list - http://groups.google.com/group/openbd?hl=en !! save a network - please trim replies before posting !!
