Yes, and if, like me, you regularly switch between a big Mac desktop and a small Linux netbook, it becomes very clear, very quickly just how much more CFBuilder brings to the table (than CFEclipse) and why CFBuilder is worth every penny of its $299 sticker price. No disrespect to CFEclipse - it's a great open source project and I used it a lot years ago and I use it heavily today when I'm on my netbook - but it is a pale shadow next to CFBuilder's full feature set.

Re: Homesite 5.5
"I hate to sound like I'm hating on CFB - I love CFB - but I'm giving up on using it for front end dev and just going to use it for pure CF." I agree 100% with this. And it's not hating on CF. It's just using CF's stronger attributes (server side computing) and using other tools for client-side. It is very tempting anytime someone asks a question about cfform or cflayout to advise someone to switch to an alternative method, but I hold my tongue. To each their own.

You didn't want to tie them up or use too many rubber bands or sometimes they wouldn't go through the readers properly. Paper tape from the teletypes were similarly sensitive at times, but much more forgiving than cards. I still have a paper tape reader in my office in case there is something in our regulatory archive on paper tape. As a side note, the paper used for cards was really nice card stock. Used cards and the dots from the paper tape punch offered incredible opportunities for pranks.

"That being said - if you don't like CFEclipse or CFBuilder and want to move to something more modern, _definitely_ check out Dreamweaver CS 5.5. I'm really, _really_ digging it lately especially in terms of how well it supports JavaScript." It's only a matter of time. I am slowly migrating to the mac. When I am using my mac, I use Dreamweaver CS 5. Compared to the older versions of DW, it's not bad at all. I like it better than CFEclipse. And as you said, it does a nice job with Javascript (very nice with the continuing growth of jQuery). I've already started customizing the tags in DW. I had so many macros and customizations that made Homesite my tool of choice. After enough customization, DW will probably be a more than capable replacement.

It's not the CFBuilder's team's fault really. The licensing software adobe uses is win/mac only. Linux is still a very small market still.

Re: Homesite 5.5
The SVN client 1.6 will work with older 1.4.x SVN servers. But the reverse is not true. Also, if you have two SVN clients on your desktop, you should make sure they are the same version. If a repo was checked out with a 1.6.x client you cannot use a 1.4.x client. Wil Genovese One man with courage makes a majority. -Andrew Jackson A fine is a tax for doing wrong.

Re: Homesite 5.5
I always used TortoiseSVN anyway, but i see DW does include SVN now. The only reason I don;t use it is that you get conflicts if you try to use 2 tools to manage SVN you end up having problems if they don;t both support the same version.

To clarify, Ray's clarify, my clarify... uh, right, it sounded funnier in my head. At any rate, for me UI dev at this point is just table/div/paragraph stuff, so strictly HTML items. I've not dived into jQuery development as I've just not had the time (or financial incentive). Out of curiosity, can DW be tied into SVN the same way Eclipse can? 95% of my projects sit in SVN at this point, and it's a big selling point to the team I work with to have it all combined into the IDE. As an aside, CS4 corrected my AMD issues, but now I have an i5 CPU to play on so it's an issue left long in the dust. It was my incentive to switch my IDE, nothing more. I have DW CS4 installed, but since I offload all HTML look and feel to others in my group (I turn their work into templates for our CMS), it's a very rare day that I open it.

If you do UI work, Dreamweaver is kickass and that's what you should use. If you do server-side work, CFBuilder is kickass and that's what you should use. I have CS4 and use DW and FW for UI stuff (for the HTML sites I maintain and the only bit of PHP). They're great tools for what they do. If I didn't already have CS4, I'd spend the $700 to buy DW/FW for the amount I use them. I bought CFB1 the moment it came out and I upgraded to CFB2 a few days after that came out. Definitely worth the $300 (or $410 that I've paid for both versions). As for Adobe supporting two CFML IDEs, that's not the case. The DW team is completely separate and doesn't really have to do anything to "support CFML" these days. They get an updated dictionary for each new CF release and that's about it. The CF team support CFB so it's tightly coupled to the CF server - which is how it should be. Adobe has one CFML IDE and it's extremely good. Adobe also has an extremely good HTML/CSS/JS editor - that just happens to have some CFML support. -- Sean A Corfield -- (904) 302-SEAN An Architect's View -- http://corfield.org/ World Singles, LLC. -- http://worldsingles.com/ Railo Technologies, Inc. -- http://www.getrailo.com/ "Perfection is the enemy of the good." -- Gustave Flaubert, French realist novelist (1821-1880) ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:345188 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

Re: Homesite 5.5
> As it stands now, Adobe is now maintaining 2 CFML Editors I would argue that is not exactly the case. ColdFusion Builder is a pure CFML IDE, plain and simple. Dreamweaver, on the other hand, is capable of editing CF code, but that is just one of the many things that it does. It's hardly a "waste of money" for them to maintain both products as they have vastly different capabilities, purposes, and target audiences. It's like saying maintaining basketball and baseball at the same time is a waste (well, I suppose for some people that argument could go either way). They both involve players and a ball, but are vastly different games. Builder and Dreamweaver each have their strong points depending on the type of work you're doing. I'd argue that Dreamweaver is made more for front-end developers who happen to need to edit CF code from time to time (or PHP, or ASP, or whatever), while Builder is meant for those of us almost exclusively in the trenches with CF. Personally, I'm glad there are different products which each solve specific needs. -Justin Scott ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:345184 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
Re: Homesite 5.5
The only real issue I have with DW is that it can't handle big files well and it is a serious system resource hog. It actually uses more CPU when it is minimised and not in use. You do need a pretty decent system to use it comfortably. Other than that it is a perfectly competent CFML editor with insight, auto complete, cfc generation, synchronization with remote servers, svn, and many other features that HS or CFE doesn't have.

Re: Homesite 5.5
I love how this thread is comparing HomeSite to punch cards and other old fashioned computing technologies. In one sense, it's amazing that HomeSite had the staying power that it did. Kudos to the original Delphi developers for creating such a great platform. The only problem is that they did it in the 1990's. 15 years in computing, 15 years on the internet, we're talking about ancient history. I switched to Eclipse early on. I found myself at a company that had questionable licensing ethics, so when I started to hear about Eclipse, I made the switch as soon as I could and haven't missed the annoyances of HS+ one bit. It turned out great for me, I could tell there was a lot of promise in the platform, so now (7 years later?) it seems like I picked a winner. These days I use a combination of CFEclipse and Notepad++, both FOSS. Notepad++ is a great pick-up-and-edit tool. At home I have been using CF Builder 2, it's good. It's really good. I also have IntelliJ IDEA, which is surprisingly advanced for CFML development. In summary, and bringing it back to the thread, try new tools, they are better. They do more things. Force yourself to try it for a couple weeks and see if you can be as efficient at it. nathan strutz [www.dopefly.com] [hi.im/nathanstrutz] [about.me/nathanstrutz] On Sat, Jun 11, 2011 at 12:49 PM, Wil Genovese wrote: > > "Sticks" of RAM?

Re: Homesite 5.5
To answer the original question, you might have HomeSite and not realize it. It was bundled with Dreamweaver, as well as the various software bundles that contain Dreamweaver. HomeSite is somewhat hidden on these CDs and it won't appear in the list of software that is on the CD, but it is there. You have to find the HomeSite folder on the CD and install it separately from everything else. HomeSite might also be found on the various trial or demo CDs Macromedia used to hand out. -Mike Chabot On Tue, May 17, 2011 at 10:20 AM, edmo...@sitecon.com edmo...@sitecon.com < edmo...@sitecon.com> wrote: > > Hello All, > > I have lost my media for Homesite 5.5.

Re: Homesite 5.5
wow this is all very technical, what is a hard drive ? I code by punching holes into a piece of card which is fed into a device that reads the holes and performs functions according to the hole positions.

Re: Homesite 5.5
Just want to ditto Russ. Moving to Eclipse was painful at first. I forced myself to give it two weeks. If I had just given it a day I would have given up. That being said - if you don't like CFEclipse or CFBuilder and want to move to something more modern, _definitely_ check out Dreamweaver CS 5.5. I'm really, _really_ digging it lately especially in terms of how well it supports JavaScript.

Re: Homesite 5.5
As with any software it is hard to move away from something you like and are used to. It took me ages to move away from homesite and get used to cfeclipse, you do have to force yourself NOT to use homesite and invest some time learning how to use the IDE properly. I did still keep homesite around for quick edits though as it was much quicker to double click files and have them open in homesite. Although now I mainly just use Dreamweaver.

RE: I still use HomeSite+ 5.5 - Should I ""Upgrade"" to something else?
My biggest issue with DW is that it uses it's own HTTP system instead of relying on the OS, like Homesite+ does. This causes major issues with internet proxies that require authentication. There is nowhere to set a username/password for http.

Re: I still use HomeSite+ 5.5 - Should I "Upgrade" to something else?
I am a Window's user and I use Sapien's PrimalScript, and have been since I stopped using HomeSite+ over a year ago. I also have CFE and DW8. Currently I am switching back and forth between CFE and PS on different projects, and I like alot about CFE (great job guys). But I still find myself coming back to PS. It is just lighter and quicker. Great snippet support and intellisense/code completion, auto-backups, etc. I use the enterprise version which has a killer Visual Query Builder and XML Editor in it, support for multisite deployment via ftp. I supports 30 languages including AS2 and it looks like they are gearing up to support Flex 2/AS3. It has full support for ASP.NET, C#, VB etc., so if you are in the BD.NET camp it is a good choice. Some of the best support I have ever seen. Downsides for CF'ers are that it only supports VSS for source control, and the code competion doesn't enumerate tag attributes. Also, it ain't cheap ($350 for the Enterprise version). But it is a great editor for Windows users involved in multiple development environments. 45 day free eval; might be worth your while to check it out. www.sapien.com On 3/9/06, Jon Block <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Not trying to fire off a crazy debate but this seems like a fantastic > editor... it's got all of the keystore shortcuts I need to be really > productive.

Re: I still use HomeSite+ 5.5 - Should I "Upgrade" to something else?
Rick, Do not even mention He3.. pah! ;) we have done a lot of work on CFEclipse especially recently to bring it in line with some of the HS user's expectations but we cant keep everyone happy. I have some plans for functions in CFE that will make HS look like what it is... an old editor. I prefer TextPad rather than HS. We have a browser, we have a couple... in fact we have four if you count the external setup. We 'could' add it like in HS but I I dont know about other people but if you are doing frameworks... well.. I dont know how that could help, you still need to do something like fuseaction=bla or event=bob etc. I have plans for it to figure this out automatically for you in the future as well as CFE providing function insight into CFC's for you... homesite WONT do that .. ok ok.. they will add VTMs. big deal. Anyways.. if you like what you got. keep using it.. but the question was about upgrading... and at the moment I think CFE is only other editor out there that is really focusing on coldfusion 'coders'. anyways...

Re: I still use HomeSite+ 5.5 - Should I "Upgrade" to something else?
With CFE how does the CSS work as you type it out? I always liked how DWMX deals with that. I have seen people mention plugins for CSS, so I assume there is one out there that gives you the same effect? I think that is one thing that keeps me away from CFE, not knowing what plug ins to get or not get and being too lazy to research it :) On 3/9/06, Rick Root <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Munson, Jacob wrote: > >>Oh!

Re: I still use HomeSite+ 5.5 - Should I ""Upgrade"" to something else?
Yes I used the latest version of CFE. It's not that there is a bug, it's just not as robust as Homesite. I realize that Homesite hasn't released a new version in years and I would like to use CFE, I just don't like the color support.

Re: I still use HomeSite+ 5.5 - Should I ""Upgrade"" to something else?
Have you checked the latest version of CFE with the latest version of eclipse? There are some minor bugs on colouring here and there, but the advantages outweigh these kind of cosmetic things IMHO, and CFE is improving all the time, when was the last new feature added to HS+? :-) On 3/9/06, Robert Everland III <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Mark, > > The one thing that has really kept me from using CFE is that the color > coding is not as robust as Homesite.

CFE does have a built-in browser, but I don't think it's a slick as in HomeSite. It's been a while since I used HS, but if I remember right you can just click browse, and the current file shows up.

Macromedia released tag updates for Homesite, so that's not really relevant. I still use Homesite 5.5+ too...

Any reason I > should use > some other tool? Opinions? I've read all the other posts, and the only thing I'll add is some insight on HS's future. Before I get to that, I'll say that I'm a CFE user, mainly because I can use it to also edit XML, Perl, CSS, and just about anything else I'll need in the future. Having everything in one IDE is just awesome! Last year at CFUnited I asked Ben Forta about Macromedia's plans for HomeSite. He said they will continue to support it with language upgrades, when new versions of CF come out, but they won't continue to put out feature releases. I have to give the caveat that I don't believe Ben was speaking for Macromedia, and also Adobe is now in charge. But I have no reason not to think the above statement is still true, considering all the resources Adobe is putting into CFE (also, Flex is now an Eclipsed based IDE). That said, I don't see why you couldn't stay with HS for a long time, if you so desire. At least until CFE and/or DW come out with some must have features that you don't get with HS. Personally, CFE already has that must have feature, just by being an Eclipse plugin. :) - [INFO] -- Access Manager: This transmission may contain information that is privileged, confidential and/or exempt from disclosure under applicable law.

Re: I still use HomeSite+ 5.5 - Should I "Upgrade" to something else?
There are certain features that we just get used to having and use all the time. Recently I started using the Synchronize feature in DWMX and DW8 due to no source control here and that one feature I am growing fond of. Although I am sure I could find something to get the same result with another IDE. It took me a LONG time to get over the no ctrl-y to delete a line in DWMX like I had in HS+ and still have in Toad to this day. Matter of fact, again now I am annoyed it is missing :) On 3/9/06, Dawson, Michael <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > What I find interesting after reading tons of these messages is that > many people may not switch editors just because of one, or two, little > features to which they have grown accustomed. > > It doesn't take a whole bunch of features to want to stay, but it takes > quite a few to make a switch. > > ~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:234826 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
Re: I still use HomeSite+ 5.5 - Should I ""Upgrade"" to something else?
I seem to try every version of DW as it comes out, but quickly get dizzly looking at all the [EMAIL PROTECTED] in the GUI and go right back to HS+. I have switched over to CFEclipse for after-hour work, which I am really starting to like, but currently use HS+ for my 9-5 job. The only reason I still use HS+ for work is that I work from home in Jacksonville and all my development is in San Diego. I use a cable modem and VPN to access the network and rely heavily on RDS, which works very nice in HS+ with VPN. Mapping a drive really seems to bog things down and FTP is a pain, as I prefer to develop on the development servers instead of my local PC. Now, once RDS is integrated with CFEclipse... I'll switch over in a heart-beat! Terry > Not trying to fire off a crazy debate but this seems like a fantastic > editor... it's got all of the keystore shortcuts I need to be really > productive.

Which is very annoying if you are developing CFE since you get responses such as "I wont switch until you make it work just like my old editor" Since I am not re-building HomeSite its a bit of a bummer. It doesn't take a whole bunch of features to want to stay, but it takes > quite a few to make a switch. Which is what keeps me busy, adding as many new features that are USEFUL to developers.

Re: I still use HomeSite+ 5.5 - Should I "Upgrade" to something else?
If it works for you and you never get to some point where you ask yourself why does it not have feature XYZ then I say just stay with it. About 1-2 years ago I forced myself to switch from Homesite/CFStudio to DWMX. The reason I forced myself to do it was because I saw that a lot of people were using it and did not want to get hired onto some contract where that was the defined IDE to use but know nothing about it. For a long time I was really annoyed by and to this day I miss some of those shortcut keys I knew all too well in HS. However after some time with the product and learning some of the features in it, I have no problems with it and can not remember the last time I fired up HS+ to do something. I like some of the new features introduced in DW8, not sure if I'd pay for the upgrade just for those features but luckily I do not have to purchase the software here(the company does that). I have tried CFE a few times and just can not see what the big deal about it is. I think I will end up forcing myself to switch to CFE sometime this year and for the same reasons I forced myself to DWMX. Although that really depends on how the battle against .NET pans out here since CF might be retired here.

RE: I still use HomeSite+ 5.5 - Should I "Upgrade" to something else?
What I find interesting after reading tons of these messages is that many people may not switch editors just because of one, or two, little features to which they have grown accustomed. It doesn't take a whole bunch of features to want to stay, but it takes quite a few to make a switch.

RE: I still use HomeSite+ 5.5 - Should I "Upgrade" to something else?
Hmmm. I have 1GB RAM and have not seen the grayed-out problem. I have also opened Flash 8 and FW 8 at the same time just to see the memory usage. However, I didn't really do any work that would have sucked up more memory. It is a RAM pig, I can say that. I have been using TopStyle frequently just to play with it again. On opening, it only takes < 4MB of memory. After a few files, it gets between 10-20MB. Not too bad. M!ke -Original Message- From: Michael T.

My main gripe with DW 8 is that is constantly tells me I am low on memory and the buttons, toolbars, and gutters get all greyed out... images on the toolbars, buttons, and gutters turn to an "X"... this despite the fact that nothing else is really open or consuming a lot of resources... oh yeah, and I have 2 GBs of RAM in my laptop so I don't get it.
