Creating a ColdFusion components in Dreamweaver

One of the questions that we hear a lot is, “How do I use CFC’s? Everybody talks about it, but how does it work?”

This tutorial contains a movie on how to create ColdFusion components by using the CFC panel in Dreamweaver. Michael van Leest explains how to do this in the “Object Orientated” way.

First Michael creates a CFC with Dreamweaver and modifies it so it contains 3 methods (functions):

getGreeting
setName
setGreeting

The component will also contain 2 variables that can be used and manipulated by all 3 functions.

Overview

Michael is going to start with Hello World! and modifies the text as he goes through the page.

After the basic steps are done, He’ll let you see an example how you could use the cfc in the session scope so it would live through out the session of your application. This can be very easy to do user specific actions or to get user specific information.

Looks hard to do?? We’ll trust me, it’s easy!

Sitt back and watch how it’s done with this Captivate instruction tutorial.
