Struct addressing in Railo

Mon, 17 Nov 2008 20:27:00 +0200

There is a major difference in how Railo addresses structs in comparison to the CFML standard. The result is that implicit addressing, (as I call it) works in the CFML standard but not in Railo. This is an issue we are long aware of AND we will NOT fix it. [More]

CFCamp in Munich next week

Sun, 16 Nov 2008 14:46:00 +0200

Finally after 6 long years there is a CFML conference in Germany again. The basic schedule is like that of "A wee dram of Scotch in London" this year. 7 Speakers for one day. If you like to read more about the event, just go to the official (Railo powered :-) website.

I am very glad that we from Railo were able to bring two very famous CFML people to the CFCAMP. Luis Majano, author of Coldbox and Mark Drew, well known to all of you from CFEclipse and the Reactor framework where he is leading the development at the moment. We hope to see as many as possible in Munich next week.

Great!!! First meeting in Tampa called off due to strike at Lufthansa.

Mon, 28 Jul 2008 23:09:00 +0200

What an odyssey. Everything worked well, got to the airport in time and then it started. I had to run from one check in counter to the next and back to the first. So after finally getting to the gate ready for boarding, one of the ground crew members told us that the flight is delayed due to a strike of the ground and catering crew at Frankfurt airport. I notified Donald immediately and hoped for the best.
After a delay of two hours, the plane was finally boarded and we took off 2:30 hours later than scheduled. So I was arriving just in time in Atlanta and was able to pass the passport control and the customs quite fast, just to find out that the plane I was supposed to take down to Tampa was broken and therefore canceled. Great.
So what to do? Directly fly to Detroit? Not possible since all flights are fully booked. So I will fly down to Tampa, do NO presentation (which I am really sorry for!!!) but at least meet some of the people from Jagged Peak the ones that build Edge the CFML shop software Davidoff uses. If you are in the Tampa area and you were supposed to attend today's presentation, I am really sorry for the cancellation, if you want to complain, you can do it here: www.lufthansa.com for the strike and www.delta.com for the broken plane.
Sorry again folks. And many thanks to Donald Bickel from the Tampa CFUG for all the help and support.
