CF Application Events

posted under category: ColdFusion on November 4, 2004 by Nathan

The next version of ColdFusion will have a much-requested feature called Application Events. Much like ASP and ASP.NET, CFMX "Blackstone" (code name), will have events for:

OnApplicationStart
OnApplicationEnd
OnSessionStart
OnSessionEnd
OnRequestStart
OnRequestEnd
OnRequest
OnError

Looks like the community will have to re-invent their best practices again. I for one look forward to it!

Nathan is a software developer at The Boeing Company in Charleston, SC. He is essentially a big programming nerd. Really, you could say that makes him a nerd among nerds. Aside from making software for the web, he plays with tech toys and likes to think about programming's big picture while speaking at conferences and generally impressing people with massive nerdiness and straight-faced sarcastic humor. Nathan got his programming start writing batch files in DOS. It should go without saying, but these thought and opinions have nothing to do with Boeing in any way.
