Sun released a few days ago an update to their JRE version 6 update 10.  This update is of special interest to the ColdFusion community because it solves a renown bug when class loading cfc's. Usual behaviors for this bug on previous JDK 6.X was incredible slow performance on loading a highly used CFC application.  I just updated my servers to use the new 10 update and everything flies!  I highly recommend that you update your servers to use JDK 6 update 10.&...

I really would appreciate your feedback on typos or sentences that really do not make any sense or if you want to help me translate, well,you are more than welcome. You can d...

I just finished uploading some initial observations of the beta. Specifically one with the ApplicationStartHandler, where it was not firing automatically, just manually through the fwreinit action.

It remains true to the actual cfc, just a little bit simpler to use. I will be including a new sample application to demonstrate how to use the JavaLoader cfc and updating the Wiki. It also includes a fix for the CustomException H...
