ModelLocater.... Yikes...!

Flex

It’s weird!?!? It’s NOT like ModelGlue /Mach-ii /FuseBox !!!

Is it true??!?!?! EVERYBODY LOVES/HUGS/TOUCHES/CHATS/KNOWS about a POOL (ModelLocater.as file) of data!??!? Is that a kool pattern!?!?! Scared!??!?!?!?!? =%

Well, anyway... If you love ColdFusion Framework development, take a look at Cairngorm, its pretty clean, super cool, ready for CodeGeneration (seems like), and has a VERY sexy name.

Daddy is starting to like. Once you grok/make all those Events/Controller/Command/Deligate/Service/FinallyInLovlyColdFusionLand.cfc files, it seems like a LOT of fun!!!! Seriously! The workflow is clean... but....... ModelLocater?!?!??!?!

ModelLocater Pattern (another link Steve Webster is KOOL!), from a HTML web developer perspective, seems fraught with danger!!!!!! It scares the dickens out of me!

 

Side note: Am I totally STUPID or dose the Guasax framework cache things. I spent SEVERAL hours trying to get this AWESOME looking puppy up and running. Good when “onApplicationInit”, but then NOTHING changes after that unless you KILL the framework specific code at the top of your <ms:Application>, and then re-run, add the framework code back in, and then re-run again. I  know that I am missing a “production”/”development” setting some where, but WHERE is that documented. NOT Bitching! Seems like a PHAT, super simple ModelGlue like front controller framework and GO SPAIN for making something so cool looking. Gonna mess around with you some more.
