Question

Win2008R2 / CF9 plus 3*Win7-64 /CFB2

Hi there

we have just upgraded to Win2008R2 / CF9 and 3 clients with Win7-64 /CFB2.

Now we think about the ideal configuration to work in our group.

Somehow we are struggling on different points when setting up the whole. There are some tricky steps ..

Well, this just as a general comment.

Some questions raise:

When I setup a project to a folder in my webroot, productive templates and CFB2 metadata are stored at the same place. I would like to separate those:

Productive templates in the webroot, CFB2-specific files in a folder outside the reach of Apache.

Somebody having a good idea how to do that?

We are three developers. Is there somewhere a good practice manual how to use CFB2 in a collaborative environment?

Thanx for help

hi together

we discussed it this morning and will immediately start evaluating which of the tools (combination) we will use. So your advice yields fruit!

Could you please shortly describe in one or two sentences the difference between Subclipse and Subversive?

--------------------------

Also, one more question now came up concerning the development environment.

So far, some of us (meanwhile 4 on the same project) used a personal CF server for development and staged later on the code to a common server.

On the other hand, we could use one single development server.

How are you guys working in the team?

I can do better than that:

It's not the first time someone has wondered the same.

We've always developed locally and deploy to a separate QA server once the release is ready. We connect to a shared DB server for one reason or another.

This is pretty much the way I've worked at any shop I've been in for the last ten years.

Small world! Our development environment is structured more or less the same as yours, Didi, and yours, Adam!

There are 3 stages, counting test and acceptance as one. Each stage has its own database. The main project languages are ColdFusion and Java. Project team sizes vary from 2 to 6.

ColdFusion developers work locally on a development server, each on his own ColdFusion instance(s). We have a protocol on how to commit code, document changes and notify colleagues. A senior developer/architect (sometimes an analyst, but never a developer from the project) deploys the project to the test server and, eventually, to the production server.

hmmm,

Are we really the only one trying to work in a team with CFB2?

Or is this just a silly question?

No you're not.

I would configure my projects the same way if it was possible to have CFB function that way, but it cannot. It's a bit limited in the way (and location wherein) one needs to set up a project. Basically you need to create the project in your web root, and your web root has to also be your application root.

You can create the project in [some other dir], and create a linked dir into that project which points to your source code, but a bunch of CFB's functionality won't work if you do that.

It sux a bit in this regard.
