Is possible to convert a coldfusion app to and exe file?

[valentindelvalle]

I need to "convert" a website of my property that is running in coldfusion (OS Solaris) to and .exe file . Is this possible? I have all the source files of the app. If is possible, anyone that wants to help me?. I really appreciate any ideas.

Not really posssible. Though there may be some software out there that will
let you run it in stand alone mode (sorry, can't recall where I saw that,
google is your friend). I usually find that the dependenices kill the idea -
the missing server environment just leaves too many holes.

It does depend on the nature of the app too. I'm just thinking aloud here,
maybe soemone else has better advice.

Yes, if you are really into pain, you can convert CF to one EXE.
Remember that this exe would be functioning as a web server, a Java application server and, finally, running your CF scripts. You would almost always need database functionality boiled into that EXE too.

A less painful goal is a standalone application that can autorun off a CD or USB stick.
The product, http://www.dwebpro.com/, is supposedly pretty good and there are also two, well-known free approaches out there.
