OpenBD vs. ColdFusion Gotchas

This is just a random collection of gotchas and other stuff I stumble over trying to port my apps from ColdFusion to OpenBD.

CFFTP: The attribute connection must be a valid variable name. In CF a connection named “123abc” is valid, in OpenBD it’s not.

cffunction: When the returntype is set to date OpenBD always returns a date object, but in CF you can return an integer, like the epoch.

Tags: OpenBD doesn’t support comments inside of tags. <cfset taxes = 0 <!— show me the money —> /> will work on CF, but not on OpenBD.

Just testing wp-cache expiry. Move along

Cool, I’ve been looking forward for postings similar to this topic…

looking forward for more “gotchas” — well not really, but if there is more, I’d be interested in knowing about them…

hah

cheers
