J2EE event listeners exist on the CFMX platform, and proper use of them can
be very beneficial to a developer.
I hope to provide an introduction and basic understanding of these event
listeners and to examine some ways to listen for session events and respond
with custom code.
The ColdFusion MX application server contains several built-in listeners that
we can leverage to our advantage. These listeners are Java interfaces that we
must implement with our own custom classes. U... (more)
When an application is functioning exactly as expected, does that mean it's
bug-free? Not necessarily.
ColdFusion provides developers with many useful and powerful debugging
techniques. If I find that part of an application isn't functioning the way I

I consider debugging to mean much more than targeting obvious malfuncti... (more)
