Mark Drew has announced frameworks support for CFEclipse and let me say - it looks incredibly sexy. He demonstrated support for Fusebox, Reactor, Model-Glue, and other frameworks. The plugin is even able to automatically determine your framework automatically, which is just incredible. Mark says the frameworks are configured by XML, and that Transfer support, for example, was added in about 5 minutes.

Now this is HOT! One of the best announcements I have heard in quite some time.

Any word on when we can expect a release? I was just over on cfeclipse.org and didnt see any mention of it.

@Russ, I know it's coming out very soon. Mark is going to be giving a workshop on it over on cfFrameworks.com next month. You heard it hear first ;)

Frameworks support in CFEclipse. Cool. I suspected that this was probably going to be the "Next Big Thing" for CFEclipse and I'm glad I was correct on this.

Nice Nick, Thanks for the heads up! Now, I just hope I can click on a fuseaction and open all the relevant files in the editor... been hoping for that for quite some time.

....very 'impatiently' waiting.

Russ, I'm pretty darn sure I saw Mark do that. Do NOT take that as a '100% yes', but I believe it is supported.

@Russ, to second Ray. I believe that is exactly what Mark did during the preso.

Also, I think I remember hearing Mark plans to release this sometime in the next week, though it was late and I had quite a few adult beverages when I heard this.
