Managing a development project can be an exercise in frustration. Fortunately, the more structured a project is, the easier it can be to manage--if you take the right approach. This session will demonstrate how the highly structured nature of a Fusebox application and the Fusebox Lifecycle Process (FLiP) provide the foundation for simple, effective, and transparent project management.

This three hour session will delve into the basics of building ColdFusion Components (CFCs) as well as discuss various methods of CFC development. We will have many examples that you can take home with you to help you start building your first site with CFCs!

More often that not slow applications can be traced back to the database. This session would show ways to write more efficient queries, such as never using SELECT *, using EXISTS as opposed to IN, different join types, etc... I would also cover how things such as joins and subqueries can affect speed. The session would focus on techniques that could be used in most databases as opposed to focusing on only one. This session would be geared towards developers who know how to write queries but are looking for an understanding on how to write better queries.

Topic: Extending the language of Fusebox
Sean Corfield (Adobe System Inc.)
We're used to the XML language of application frameworks being a static, fixed thing. If it doesn't let you do what you want, you're out of luck. Not so with Fusebox 5! This recent release lets you define your own verbs, which offers a much richer, more expressive way to build applications. This session will briefly walk you through the architecture of Fusebox and then dive into how to use third party custom lexicons as well as how to write your own language extensions. Enjoy the power of higher-level abstractions without the performance penalties they so often bring!
Prerequisites: Familiarity with XML-powered application frameworks. Specific knowledge of Fusebox is not required.

In this session, ColdFusion developers will learn how it's not CF or Flex, but rather how Flex and ColdFusion integrate to create RIAs. In "traditional" applications, CF connects to external systems, processes business logic, and builds an HTML presentation layer. In an RIA, CF still connects to external systems and processes business logic while Flex is used to construct a richer presentation layer delivered by the Flash Player. In this session, you'll see how the two technologies integrate and get a first taste of Flex development. You'll learn next steps for orienting yourself to Flex and common gotchas encountered by CF developers new to Flex. While previous experience with Flex is not necessary, knowledge of ColdFusion components will be helpful for this session.

CFML is one of the easiest languages with which to create and consume Web Services. Both BlueDragon and CFMX allow you to easily extend CFC methods to publish them as web services -- and it's just as easy to consume them as well. You don't need to understand XML to work with them. In this introduction to the topic, veteran CFUG speaker Charlie Arehart will show you how easy it is, explain what you need to know about CFCs, Web Services, and a little about XML. Other important issues like security and exception handling are covered as well.

The introduction of Event Gateways in ColdFusion MX 7 opened many new possibilities for ColdFusion. Until this release, ColdFusion applications operated in a synchronous model, often requiring the user to pay the price while complex application logic executed. In this session we will explore how the use of the asynchronous event gateway can dramatically change the performance characteristics of applications, opening up new design and architectural options for your future applications. Previous experience with ColdFusion is required.

Farcry has been completely renovated and updated with version 3.0 to be much more user-friendly and approachable. The presentation will be built around showcasing the implementation of the Frameworks conference site. There will also be an overview of how the system works and how to get started (kind of like last year's presentation but with better live examples).
