BlueDragon Live!

By barneyb on December 12, 2004

Well, I'm happy to say that I just deployed my first BlueDragon app to production this evening. It's not much (couple hundred KB), but it's up and running on BD 6.2 Beta. I discovered a whole slew of bugs as I put it together (it was a ~5 day sprint of late nights), but nothing [...]

Reorganization

By barneyb on December 11, 2004

I got to thinking last night that I didn't have the categories of the blog broken down very well. The "ColdFusion" category in particular was quite broad. So I broke it down into three categories, and reassigned the existing entries as needed:

BlueDragon: entries about New Atlanta's BlueDragon CFML runtime
CFML: entries about the CFML [...]

Will It Never End?

By barneyb on December 10, 2004

So, BD 6.1 Beta solved most of my problems with CFCs. I'm on cloud nine, and I'm finally getting some work done. It's not perfect, but none of the other bugs were really more than inconveniences (for instance, it gets grumpy when you mix full CFC paths with pathless references to CFCs in [...]

Version Control Rules

By barneyb on December 10, 2004

I was a non-believer in version control for a while. Then about two and a half years ago I took over a decent sized project (around 70,000 LOC) and knew I'd be in trouble without something to help me keep track of it all. So I started using CVS.
Nothing but good things to say. [...]

User Error!!!

By barneyb on December 9, 2004

So my problem from last night where CFCs wouldn't work on the URL turned out to be a conflict between CFMX and BlueDragon. I don't have CFMX installed on my box any more, but when I uninstalled it, it left a couple Axis config files in a WEB-INF directory. BD, being the well-behaved [...]

BlueDragon Update (a nice one!)

By barneyb on December 9, 2004

After getting blasted by the NewAtlanta folks in private (which I don't deny I deserved), I thought I should add some more context for my previous posts about BlueDragon.
First, I'm using BD 6.2 Beta, so bugs are to be expected, and in that sense, I don't really have any grounds for complaining when things don't [...]

The Dragon is at it Again

By barneyb on December 9, 2004

I was just about to come say how happy I am with BlueDragon 6.2 in comparison to how I was two weeks ago. I've had great success working with my framework and getting it moving along nicely. But, then I started on the frontend of a project I've been working on separately, and [...]

Where's The Boisvert Life??

By barneyb on December 8, 2004

If you came to 'www.barneyb.com' looking for The Boisvert Life, it's been moved to it's own domain: 'www.theboisvertlife.com'. I usually go to great lengths to ensure that I don't change URLs on people, but in this case, my hand was forced by some internal changes I had to make. Apologies for any inconvenience; [...]

More BlueDragon Fun

By barneyb on December 6, 2004

I've been continuing to work with BD 6.2 beta, and having pretty good success. There have been a pretty substantial number of bumps along the way, but none of them have been show stoppers, and it is a beta offering, so it's not supposed to be perfect. All in all, things are going [...]

BlueDragon Update

By barneyb on December 4, 2004

Well, after a couple days of using the BlueDragon 6.2 beta, I haven't found any major problems with it. There have been a few little bugs, but nothing show stopping yet. As well as the CFC location issues that were driving me nuts, they fixed the issue with calling overloaded Java methods.
In 6.1, [...]
