Custom App XML Configuration File
Posted by Jason Durham | Tags: ColdBox , ColdFusion
When starting a new application, I always think back through the frustrations I had with a previous project and try to prevent being stuck in the same situation. I presume (and hope) every developer does that. As my skills continue to grow, so does my base of reusable widgets I've made along the way. The allure to Object Oriented development for me was the likelihood being able to reuse mundane, time-consuming or complicated code. On the aforementioned project, the exact spelling of the business wasn't even decided when I wrote the first view. The solution to this problem was provide a mechanism to easily change common business parameters found on most sites.
SQL injection safeguard and implicit action protection

The routing mechanism for ColdBox's SES Interceptor uses a ported version of ColdCourse, a project by Adam Fortuna. It is incredibly simple and just as powerful. While playing with my SES urls, I realized it was possible to execute implicit framework/handler methods directly from the URL. While I couldn't find a specifc reason why this may cause me grief in the future, I thought it might simplify my life to prevent those methods from being executed.

After several exhaustive days scouring the web, reading documentation, soliciting help from others, cursing Vista and beating my head against the wall... I stumbled on a neat, new module built to do _exactly_ what I needed, GUI included!
Holy cow! Boy do I have a lot of work to do...

At the suggestion of a few friends, I've decided to enter the blog arena. I'm not sure you'll find the most bleeding edge and advanced topics on this blog, but you will find content on some of the popular new toys in CF development. I'm going to do my best to keep this sucker new and fresh but that comes without warranty. :o)
My first few topics will likely be related to ColdBox, an OO-based ColdFusion framework created by Luis Majano. After much help and encouragement from a friend (Matt Quackenbush), I've "completed" my first ColdBox-based application. The help and support from Matt and Luis has been invaluable, to say the least.
I have a few topics in my mind that I hope _someone_ might learn something from. I'll get them posted soon. :)
