I have a client with an existing ColdFusion 7 website.  They need it upgraded to ColdFusion9.  How do I upgrade the code?  I need to know what software I'll need, whether there is a cost for that software, and how long the upgrade will take.

Hi,

When you run the Code Analyzer, it will check the code as per ColdFusion 9 compatibility. In case there is an error, it would display the same with the specific page and the tag, and will show you specific "help" as well. You may have to rewrite the code, which is incompatible with the current version (as per your requirement).

Hi,

You can migrate code from ColdFusion 7 to ColdFusion 9. You can use the code analyzer to check the compatibility of code from the previous version to the new one. Please refer to http://help.adobe.com/en_US/ColdFusion/9.0/Developing/WSc3ff6d0ea77859461172e0811cbec0d04c-7fee.html for more details.

Thanks for your reply.  Is there anything I need to DO to the code?  That is, is there anything that makes the code CF7 or CF9?  Or will I just take the existing code and use it on a server that has CF9?
