There are a lot of people out there in the CFML world managing legacy codebases. Some of them use frameworks that are no longer maintained, and many use no framework at all. A common question that I get is whether an app can be slowly converted over to ColdBox without having to rewrite everything at once. The answer is YES! ColdBox will comfortably live alongside your legacy code, giving you the chance to slowly convert it over as you get the chance.

Monday, we released CommandBox 2.2.0, the latest version of CFML's package manager, REPL, embedded server, and CLI. We've got a nice list of bug fixes and some fancy new installation endpoints like CFLib and RIAForge. We've bumped the underlying version of Lucee to the new stable release of Lucee 4.5.2.018 which was also released Monday. Another nice feature is that the REPL now runs in the context of the current directory meaning you can create CFCs in the working directory and r...

We have put out a patch release 2.1.1 for CommandBox today. This fixes a bug in the "update" and "outdated" commands that caused them to error after you had installed packages from an endpoint other than ForgeBox. Note, packages installed from HTTP(S) and Git endpoints will always show as outdated and will always update since those endpoints don't provide a way to ...

We've released a very small patch release (1.1.1) for CommandBox. This is to address a small bug in the upgrade process from 1.0.0. This update affects the underlying loader libraries so you will need to download the latest binary and replace the old binary on your file system. The first time you run "box" the update will be applied.
The downloads ar...

We are very excited to announce the immediate release of CommandBox version 1.1.0. This is a maintenance release that addresses much of the feedback and bug reports that we received from the community since our 1.0.0 release a few month ago. The response to CommandBox 1.0 has been phenomenal and we are excited to see so many CFML developers finding a new level of productivity. Thanks to everyone who has used CommandBox thus far and provided great feedback and ideas.
