ColdFusion 9.0.1 Released

Tue, 13 Jul 2010 15:54:00 -0300

ColdFusion 9.0.1 is now available for download at http://www.adobe.com/go/getcf901.

Some of the good changes mainly in the use of ORM:

Language enhancements - including for-in loops for arrays.
CFScript support for dbinfo, imap, pop, ldap, and feed
CFScript support for file uploads.
Caching enhancements - including the ability to get a handle on the ehCache session.
Support for IIS 7
ColdFusion Ajax enhancements - including updates cfmap, cfgrid, file uploading and JavaScript functions.
ORM enhancements:

Support for Multiple Datasources
Transaction Management Improvements
skipCFCWithError Flag in ormSettings
mappedSuperClass Attribute for Components
Use EntityNew to Populate a New Entity
Support for HQL in cfquery

Amazon S3 support - the ability to use Amazon S3 storage with most tags and functions that use a file or directory as input or output.
On the Flash/AIR/DS site - there were updates to the CF/AIR integration bits, Flash Remoting, and support was added for BlazeDS 4 and LCDS 3. (Blaze and LCDS are one of the things I think far too many CFers don't know enough about.) ,
CFaaS was updated to allow you to get text and images from PDFs.

That's just for the grand prize winner. Runner ups (three of them) will get CFB and FB4. Not only that, each and every participant will get something nice from Adobe.

ColdFusion 9 is released

Mon, 05 Oct 2009 22:16:00 -0300

Adobe announce: ColdFusion 9 is now available.

It's been about 2 years in the making and of the hard work and dedication the development team puts in. They put in crazy hours, and put out a product that is unbelievable. Here's what they added:

ORM
Advanced Caching
SharePoint Integration
Office Integration
- Word
- PowerPoint
- Excel
Java Portal Integration
Major reworking of Components
- Performance Boost
- Automatic Getters and Setters
- Local Scope
Cfscript Enhancement
CFML Enhancements
New Search Engine
ColdFusion as a Service
Supercharged Flash Remoting

And ColdFusion Builder Beta 2 is now on labs.

PS.: The EULA for ColdFusion 9:

Usage with cloud computing is now supported. Each license of ColdFusion will limit you to a number of instances.
- Standard 1 instance
- Enterprise 10 instances
ColdFusion 9 boxes dedicated to testing or group development no longer require their own licenses. A license of ColdFusion 9 you buy for production will allow you to create the rest of your environment. This is in addition to the change in the EULA we made in ColdFusion 8 to cover passive backup servers. We made both of these changes because it was important to us that developers not be penalized for following best practices.

It's important to note that these changes are not retroactive to previous versions of ColdFusion, only to ColdFusion 9.
