Railo

Quite often people use the CFLOCATION tag in Railo/CFML and they would like to know how a user actually got to this page and where from. So I created a CFC based custom tag that logs all this. [More]

Railo team has made a final decision to start doing nightly builds / BER on Github ( http://github.com/getrailo/railo ). We will continue to use JBoss SVN ( http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/railo/ ) for pushing stable builds. We're now working on creating a build script to make it easier to build Railo.

As part of the latest Railo update, the format of the task object has changed slightly so, if you have any open tasks in your Administrator (under Services > Tasks), it's probably safer to delete those tasks first, before you update. This applies ... [More] only to tasks, not scheduled tasks. If you update while such tasks exist, you may encounter a null pointer exception when viewing Services > Tasks in the Administrator. To fix that, simply remove the *.tsk files from the WEB-INF/railo/client-tasks folder tree and restart Railo. [Less]

Following up with yesterday's post, there's one more gem in that old Railo documentation. Again, this has been around since Railo 2.0. We're going to make a new, yet similar example. [More]

I was digging around in the old Railo 2.0 documentation and I came across this little gem about magic functions (getters/setters). I thought I'd take a minute to update the documentation a little bit since things have changed as we can no longer rely on this scope since it is publicly accessible. [More]

The team has been attempting to dust off ye ol' wiki. Mark Drew recently added a Tips & Tricks section on the wiki.
