Framework My Model Please!!!!!

WOW!!!!!

Transfer got me so worked up last night that I had to RUN out of the house super early this morning and start messing around with it. So I started to "transpose" tBlog into the Model-Glue framework.

Ohhhhh Myyyyyyy Gooooooooosh!

Background
The other night I was pacing around my apartment thinking: "Why don't I have a good frame work for my model!?!?!, Heck I just built a pretty neat caching system for my little RSS reader. Shouldn't that have been done by some Framework?"

Well, Ladies and Gentleman! TRANSFER!!!!

What is killing me this morning is that my CFC's in my controller and model folder are starting to look a lot a like! I know that this is a little be of an over statement but, NO KIDDING.

When I migrated Marks "model code" located at the top of every page in his example application, (go ahead and read it, Freaky how his model maps perfectly to the view, so self submitting forms don't look CRAZY, they look and smell natural. I also realize this is bad practice but THANKS MARK FOR SUCH A PERFECT EXAMPLE OF TRANSFER) it just struck me like a ton of bricks.

That Transfer.xml file, that wondrous great thing, is doing a WHOLE HECK OF A LOT FOR ME!!!!! Its My Model Framework!!!!!!

I will post the code when done, shouldn't be to long. I am building a site for a buddy of mine and will hopefully use this code base so I can finish it this weekend.

I will also be integrating Doug Hughes url pinger, and hopefully if it isn't to hard, Ray Camden's and Paul Hastings internationalization stuff, but I'll have to look into that since I am not the sharpest tool in the shed.

I LOVE COLDFUSION!!!!!!

Front End Is Trying to Kill Me

Tue, 21 Nov 2006 17:41:15 GMT

I am TOTALLY tired of the front end nightmare!

Will Flex save me? I just printed out the Flex Store 2_1 and have been reading Steve Webster’s (how kewl is Webster for the name of a RIA framework creator???!?!?, LOVE IT) 6 part series on Flex Development. I think Flex will be the answer I have been looking for.

What will Flex save me from? STUPID BROWSERS!!!!! I love how CF makes making the backend easy, but trying to wrestle Yahoo UI, Dojo, or script.aculo.us, or my fav TwinHelix (MOST LIGHT WEIGHT, MOST CROSS BROWSER SUPPORT DTHML LIB out there) to solve some problem that my designers have made every time is getting to be a bummer.

F this HTML stuff, give me something that works. I think it is here.

I think I am going to try to give Reactor Blog a Flex front end.

Ill post code if it comes out.
