ColdFusion 8 and Java
I'm not a java programmer, actually, My java knowledge is
from an intro to java course I took about 8 yrs ago.
On my cf application on the other hand, there is one tiny section where previous programmer created a functionality using java programming.
When user upload a file from our CF application interface, the form action then point to some java servlet location, a tomkat server(?),which then processes the uploading file and checking this file in java programming on that server.
We're in the process of getting rid of that tomkat server and instead of re-writing the exact same funtionality in CF, I'm thinking of incorporating those java codes and classes. I understand that CF is based on java so this idea should be possible.
The question is whether this task will be to hard for me who has no java programming experience with only very tiny knowledge that's mostly evaporated.
Should I forget this integration plan and just re-write the functionality in CF instead? or
How easy it is to integrate CF and java to avoid re-writing the code, is there examples or instruction somewhere who is more to the point or step by step?
