I have been asked several times to describe how to create and use a Railo archive. This entry also describes how to include images inside an archive. [More]

From another (architect's) point of view

Thu, 24 May 2007 08:45:00 +0200

Today I found an interesting blog entry related to Railo in Sean Corfield's blog.

He has downloaded and installed the beta of Railo 1.1 for the first time. According to his blog, Sean who is one of the authors of Fusebox seemed to be quite impressed with the performance and the features of Railo.
Well I hope we can surprise him a little more, when we go on tour on the west coast next month.
Or you can come, see and meet us at Scotch.

Railo on US tour

Sun, 13 May 2007 14:03:00 +0200

It sounds like a tour of a rock band. Well we decided to take a trip through the United States towards the end of June. Starting on the CFUNITED which I will attend only myself, we will fly to San Francisco, Sacramento and maybe the Los Angeles area. We would be very happy, if you would attend some of the CFUG meetings where we will present the latest release of Railo 1.1. We will inform you about the details in time.

The first presentation will take place at the Scotch on the Rocks on June 1th. I am really looking forward to beeing there. After that, on June 7th we will be at the London CFUG and present Railo to the interested audience.

Under attack

Mon, 23 Apr 2007 10:11:00 +0200

There are some security concerns about using datasources that I would like to share with you. It is concerning the general usage of datasources, no matter which CFML engine you use. [More]

Smart caching

Wed, 28 Mar 2007 20:30:00 +0200

As you may know, CFML offers the possibility to cache a query whithin a certain timespan. While working on the tag <cfcache> we thought about improving the tag by a certain option we would like to have your opinion about. [More]

Silence

Thu, 22 Mar 2007 17:33:00 +0200

A major disadvantage of generated code is the size of the generated html. When you have something like <cfscript> this may not be an issue since the complete code generates no output unless you use something like echo() or writeOutput(). [More]

Beta is growing

Mon, 19 Mar 2007 12:15:00 +0200

The next beta release of Railo 1.1 is out. In this release some new tags have been implemented. Railo 1.1.005 now contains the following tags:

<cftrace>
<cfproperty>
<cfstoredproc>
<cfprocparam>
<cfprocresult>

In addition to that Railo 1.1.005 now supports additional attributes in the tags <cfcomponent>, <cffunction>, <cfargument> and <cfproperty>.

If you have any issues with the new tags or other functionalities please let us know. We are doing a lot of testing in order to release a highly stable release candidate soon.

Thu, 08 Mar 2007 14:35:00 +0200

Like other CFML engines, Railo allows to choose between different debugging templates. The templates are located in the folder /railo-context/admin/templates/debugging.

(geschüttelt nicht gerührt)

We have intercepted a message addressed to headquarters telling us some strange but interesting things might happen towards the end of May '007 somewhere in Scottland. All we found out was that a conference Scotch on the rocks '007 will take place on May, 31 and June 1. We decided to send Sean Bont, a Bont Girl and Kiu to attend the conference.

Railo 1.1 Beta 1

Tue, 05 Dec 2006 21:31:00 +0200

The first public Railo 1.1 version will be released for public testing in December 2006. We are very proud of announcing this release, since with Railo 1.1 we will introduce many features of CFMX 7.0 and some new Railo features.

With Railo 1.1 we will introduce resources as we call virtual filesystems.

Now what will you be able to do with Railo resources? It is quite simple. You can use any type of resource with any type of file tag or function. The resource defines where the file that you write for instance with a <cffile>-tag will be written to.
