ColdFusion Builder Extension Test Creator

No Comments

When I build or debug ColdFusion Builder Extensions I typically do the following:

I found my self frustrated with this workflow. Instead, what if I created an extension that could capture the IDE content and write it to the disk for me?

That's what I did.

I still have to adjust my extensions to read in the file, but I can make that conditional:

<cfif fileExists(ExpandPath("./sample.xml"))>
   <cffile action="read" file="#ExpandPath("./sample.xml")#" variable="form.ideeventInfo" />
</cfif>

So now much less work for me, and if you're interested, much less work for you. The extension is now up on RIAForge.com: ColdFusion Builder Extension Test Creator.
