RE: [ACFUG Discuss] Editor Options for CF7 (Macromedia Studio 8? Homesite? Some other editor?)
Well, again, I want to make the assertion that HomeSite+ is also "free"--if you already have a license for DWMX or Studio MX, of course. I know that may smack some as either disingenuous or a technicality, but I do mean it seriously. I know a lot of folks who don't like DWMX much and still haven't gotten into Eclipse, and are still using CF Studio even though their shop has licenses for DWMX and perhaps even if it's installed on their machine and they never use it. I'm just saying: go get that DWMX or Studio MX CD and you can freely installed HS+. You just need the license key for your DWMX or Studio MX install. But I'm really not arguing against Allen or others who love Eclipse. It clearly has some great advantages--and strong adherents. :-) Just know what all your options are and choose what's best for you. That was the point of Gordon's question, really. /charlie From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED]Sent: Thursday, June 29, 2006 9:58 AMTo: discussion@acfug.orgSubject: RE: [ACFUG Discuss] Editor Options for CF7 (Macromedia Studio 8?

RE: [ACFUG Discuss] Editor Options for CF7 (Macromedia Studio 8? Homesite? Some other editor?)
Be careful: HomeSite does NOT equal HomeSite+. HS can be purchased, HS+ is bundled in DWMX/Studio MX. You're right, though, that there's little mention of that. And again, beyond hiding it on the site, it's not even in the installer. So many people have it and don't even know it. /charlie From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Gordon CantorSent: Thursday, June 29, 2006 10:18 AMTo: discussion@acfug.orgSubject: RE: [ACFUG Discuss] Editor Options for CF7 (Macromedia Studio 8?

RE: [ACFUG Discuss] Editor Options for CF7 (Macromedia Studio 8? Homesite? Some other editor?)
I'll do a brief overview: Pros - Free (that's a wonderful word) - It basically does everything that studio does (color coding, help, bookmarks, etc) - It's extremely customizable - from snippets, shortcuts, layout, etc. Just a very tweakable interface - Constantly being updated by the developers of CFEclipse (and it's open source so the support is tremendous) - They finally have an RDS plugin that works very well - You can add additional plugins such as CSS, Javascript, Database, etc. These are updated frequently so you're constantly able to get the most updated code libraries for color coding, auto completion, etc - Much better integration with VSS using the source safe plugin Cons - Not all of the plugins work all that great (like the WebDAV/FTP synchronization plugin - I can never get it to work) - You can't just open a file in there, you have to open a random file in the scribble pad which takes some getting used to (eclipse requires that you create projects and you can edit files within your projects) - Can't seem to get an FTP/WebDAV plugin to function properly Overall, I would highly recommend to anyone looking to get away from DW (buggy) or just looking to move up to a similar environment from Homesite/CFStudio. I used to absolutely love Studio (and I still use it occasionally simply for the included help files), but I would have to say that after having used CFEclipse for over a year now, I think I like it better than the other ones currently out there. For the record, I like CFStudio, Homesite, and Eclipse (I'm fond of text-style editors and not a big fan of drag and drop stuff) and I'm NOT fond of DW...

Re: [ACFUG Discuss] Editor Options for CF7 (Macromedia Studio 8? Homesite? Some other editor?)
I'm with Teddy for the most part, eclipse simply rawks. Its CVS and SVN support built into your IDE are uber sweet and cfeclipse is really coming along and even has RDS plugins now from Adobe. Only real draw back is FTP support. I like how DW has easy upload via FTP on a per file basis. I rarely use the 'design' view of DW, the code view is just fine. Now...add some other techs to the mix...use Eclipse for sure. Develop your Flex mxml code, your CFcode, your Java code, your xml, your Ant scripts, your ActionScript, etc... all in one IDE. nice.

The CF7 updater is at: http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion/downloads/ (look in the middle of the page for HomeSite+). If I recall, it only adds what was new, so if you are trying to add it to CF Studio or an old version of HomeSite or HomeSite+ that didn't have the CFMX 6/6.1 tag updates, you may lack those. If anyone recalls differently, or has a link for the CFMX 6/6.1 updaters for HS/HS+, please do share. /charlie From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dusty HaleSent: Wednesday, June 28, 2006 5:56 PMTo: discussion@acfug.orgSubject: RE: [ACFUG Discuss] Editor Options for CF7 (Macromedia Studio 8?

I would highly recommend Eclipse editor using the CFEclipse plugin.Eclipse is a java application and you will need a Java run time environment (JRE). Eclipse is becomming a defactor editor because of Adobe's initiative Flex Builder.
