ColdFusion MX 8 (codenamed Scorpio) has recently been released. To view details of this important release, go to the Adobe website.
This is a very big deal for CF programmers - it represents the completion of the absorption of the Macromedia brand into Adobe, as it relates to us on a professional level.
The new version includes lots of little bits and pieces as well as major features such as:
- Explicit multi-threading using CFTHREAD
- Image manipulation through CFIMAGE, utilising the toolkit of the Adobe Photoshop team.
- Much better server monitoring and real-time maintenance in the CF Administrator.
I for one am very excited and I hope that this new version puts to death the recent articles about CF either not taking off, or being a dying language.
