Question

CFC Generator doesn't create anything?

Ok, this is baffeling me! We have Coldfusion Builder installed as a plugin to FlashBuilder. I have the CFC generator extension installed. When I right-click on a table in my RDS view and select "Create CFC" It prompts me for a location. Location relative to what??? I've tried a couple of different times with what seemed like appropriate location paths but nothing gets generated. I get no errors and no files open like they did in FlexBuilder 3. That extension was MUCH better!

Also, in the Extensions panel the CFC Generator still shows that is a Beta version. Is there a fully release and tested version? Any help is greatly appreciated.

I don't know if this will help your particular solution but check out this article:  http://www.adobe.com/devnet/coldfusion/articles/setup_dev.html .   Near the bottom Kev walks through an example.  The location for the CFC in this case is relative to the project and in the subdirectory for CFCs.

Thanks for the response... One thing I've noticed is that when the CFC or ORM CFC generator dialog box appears there isn't a "browse" button to browse the file system for where to put the CFCs. Is this normal? Most all the examples I've seen show this button. Any idea how we fix this? Uninstall and reinstall CF Builder or just the Extensions?

I do get a Browse button for both the CFC and ORM CFC generators.  This was the pop up from right-clicking on a table name...

I've also recently updated CF Builder with the recent update so maybe you are on the original release version when you're not seeing the Browse button?
