Peter is correct. The desire is a quick and dirty syntax check, non-
runtime. I am trying to make a small step for shops that have legacy,
spaghetti code toward automated testing and ci. A jar would be perfect
like with ACF, we can do this:
<java classname="coldfusion.tools.CommandLineInvoker" fork="true"
resultproperty="java.compilecheck" output="$
{coldfusion.compiler.syntaxresults}">
<classpath>
<pathelement location="${jrun.jar}" />
<pathelement
location="${coldfusion.bootstrap.jar}" />
<pathelement location="${coldfusion.cfx.jar}" />
</classpath>
<sysproperty key=" coldfusion.classPath" value="$
{coldfusion.compiler.classpath}" />
<sysproperty key=" coldfusion.libPath" value="$
{coldfusion.compiler.libpath}" />
<arg line=" Compiler " />
<arg line=" -webroot ${webroot} " />
<arg line=" ${filePathToBuildFolder}" />
</java>
FYI - It seems Railo has a Build.cfc.
This might a an easy first step for people looking to have existing
code work in OpenBD also.
