Does ColdFusion have a CGI mode?

[Mihai Baboi]

I don't know if I'm asking the right question, so let me make it a bit more clear.

What I want to know, is: can I run ColdFusion documents in a console? For instance, in PHP I can go to a console and navigate to the place that my php file is installed. There, I can type:

> php testfile.php

And it runs PHP in CGI mode. Can I do this with ColdFusion? If so, do I need to configure anything in order to make it work?

Thanks

No, ColdFusion hasn't. One (indirect) way to do it is by means of a Java application that opens a CFM page.

I understand. Thanks for the prompt response.

ColdFusion had a CGI mode in version 2 and before. Since then, it hasn't. Generally, people use wget or curl to run CF programs from a console.
