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

ACF2021 extended support ends on November 10. Is Your Application Ready?
Adobe ColdFusion 2021 reaches the end of extended support on November 10, 2026. If your application still runs on this release, the time to decide what comes next is now.
Adobe ended core support for ColdFusion 2021 on November 10, 2025. The current extended support period is best effort and does not include security patches or hotfixes. When it ends on November 10 2026, organizations will no longer have that support option from Adobe for ColdFusion 2021.

Luis,
The eclipse update site link is broken.

You need to use the built-in eclipse updater to install the plugin.
Help -> Software Updates -> Find & Install -> New Features.
Then add the url as the location for the plugin.
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.
