Wirebox Delegates
WireBox supports the concept of object delegation in a simple expressive DSL.  In object-oriented programming, delegation refers to the evaluating a member (property or method) of one object (the receiver) to the context of another object (the sender).  Basically a way to proxy calls from one object to the other and avoid the overuse of inheritance, avoid runtime mixins or traits.  WireBox provides a set of rules for method lookup and method dispatching that will allow you to provide delegation easily in your CFML applications.

CommandBox vNext supports providing SSL certs in PFX format
CommandBox vNext finally supports providing SSL certs in PFX format, which is a single file containing the public and private key as opposed to needing those in two separate files.

Restoring the CF Admin logviewer removed in Oct 2022 CF updates, at your own risk
As of the Oct 2022 CF updates (CF2021 update 5 and CF2018 update 15), Adobe has chosen to remove the CF Admin feature to view, search, download, and delete CF logs, due to asserted (but as-yet undocumented) security concerns.
What if you want it back? In this post, I explain what changed, why, and how to get the functionality back--albeit at your own risk. For more, read on.

CF Hawaii Meetup - Managing All your ColdFusion Servers with CommandBox with Brad Wood

CommandBox is a standalone, native tool for Windows, Mac, and Linux that will provide you with a Command Line Interface (CLI) for developer productivity, tool interaction, package management, embedded CFML server, application scaffolding, and sweet ASCII art. It seamlessly integrates to work with any of Ortus Solutions *Box products, but it is also open for extensibility for any ColdFusion (CFML) project as it is written in ColdFusion (CFML) using our concepts of CommandBox Commands.

CommandBox also functions as a package management tool which integrates seamlessly with ForgeBox. During this meeting Brad will give you an introduction to CommandBox to mange your ColdFusion Server as well as CF Config to Mange the CF Admin.

Charlie Arehart - “How the Adobe CF Docker Images Have Evolved”
Wednesday November 16 at 12pm – 1pm EST.
Since Adobe’s original 2018 release of Docker images for CF (initially for cf2018 and cf2016), the configurability features built into them have improved in significant ways, especially with cf2021, which is much smaller, faster, and whose admin settings can be configured via json. In this talk, veteran CF consultant Charlie Arehart will review and demonstrate those feature changes for the CF images, as well as the images for the CF Performance Monitoring Toolkit (PMT) and the CF Enterprise API Manager–all available at Dockerhub since 2021.
Register: https://how-the-cf-docker-images-evolved.meetus.adobeevents.com/

11/7/22 - Blog - Ben Nadel - Proxying Gravatar Images For Better Avatar Caching In ColdFusion
When readers leave a comment on this blog, I render an avatar next to their authorship information. This avatar is served from Gravatar, which is (probably) the most popular avatar system on the web (brought to us by the same people who built WordPress). Unfortunately, serving avatars from Gravatar was hurting my Chrome LightHouse scores due to Gravatar's very short caching controls (5-mins). To help improve my LightHouse score, I'm starting to proxy the Gravatar images on my ColdFusion server, applying a custom Cache-Control HTTP header.

11/5/22 - Blog - Charlie Arehart - ColdFusion Portal - Enabling CF to switch to using Java’s regex engine
If you may ever encounter problems trying to use regular expressions in CFML (which are actually PERL regex’s), did you know that you can tell CF to use Java regex’s instead? This has been possible since 2019, but you could have missed when the change was introduced via CF2018 update 5 in Sep 2019–and of course the option is also built into CF 2021.
This is one of those settings which can be enabled/controlled at either:
the server level: via the CF Admin “Settings” page, and its “Use Java as Regex Engine” option
or the application level: via the this.useJavaAsRegexEngine in application.cfc (or an attribute of the same name in cfapplication, if using application.cfm)
