JavaLoader 1.0 Beta Released
JavaLoader 1.0 is moving from Alpha to Beta with only a few small bug fixes and enhancements.
If you are not familiar with JavaLoader 1.0's functionality, you can have a look at my previous blog post , the documentation and/or the presentation I did at MAX for more information.
The was a logic bug in the way that dynamic compilation was occuring across multiple source directories that has now been resolved, and should also ensure that compilation is much faster than it was in the Alpha.
The other enhancement was to allow for relative paths in the Spring integration. To explain, in the Alpha, you would often end up having to input your beans similar to this:
<coldfusion:cfc id="message"
script-source="file://${root.path}/model/Message.cfc"
script-interfaces="com.IMessage"
/>
Which can be a bit of a pain, as injecting a dynamic value for ${root.path} is not as easy in Spring as it is in ColdSpring.
Now, by default, 'script-source' attributes are relative to the calling page, so you can do your bean definitions like this:
<coldfusion:cfc id="message"
script-source="file:///model/Message.cfc"
script-interfaces="com.IMessage"
/>
and the path will be worked out for /model/Message.cfc relative to your application path.
Oh, and don't forget - if you are into integrating Java and ColdFusion development, make sure you sign up for the Google Group !
