Migrating Applications

Migrating Applications to FW/1

This section provides guidance on migrating applications to FW/1, primarily from non-framework code. This section will be expanded to cover similarities and differences between FW/1 and other frameworks as a set of hints and tips for migrating from other frameworks to FW/1.

Non-Framework Code

Here is small bit of code that was very helpful in adding FW/1 to a big Non-Framework application.
In Application.cfc we created small method isLegacy():

public any function isLegacy() {
  return getFullyQualifiedAction() == getSubsystem() & ':' & variables.framework.defaultSection & '.' & variables.framework.defaultItem;
}

In setupRequest we added following:

if ( isLegacy() ) {
  include cgi.script_name;
  abort;
}

Other Frameworks

ColdBox

Fusebox

Mach-II

Model-Glue
