I have just released a partial list of the release notes for 2.6.0 Beta 1 that will be released in the coming days. You can find also a compatibility guide and a what's new guide, so you can see what are all the cool new features. One of the new things is that I am now delving into Eclipse and the first official ColdBox Eclipse Plugin is now online. The eclipse update site can now be found here: http://www.coldboxframework.com/distribution/eclipse/ Enjoy the coming eclipse plugins... UPDATE: The update site shown above is meant to be used within eclipse. For further instructions, see http://www.coldboxframework.com/index.cfm/download/extras

You need to use the built-in eclipse updater to install the plugin.

Help -> Software Updates -> Find & Install -> New Features.

To view the API open up the Help view and it should be the last one listed under 'All Topics'.

Luis, please correct me if I missed any steps.

ColdFusion Modernization for UK Universities Without Downtime

Across the United Kingdom, many universities still rely on legacy ColdFusion and CFML systems to power student portals, enrollment platforms, research databases, payment gateways, and internal academic workflows.

These systems are often:

  • 15 to 25 years old
  • Mission-critical
