Recorded version of my MAX ColdFusion ORM Presentation

10

As has been Twittered around this morning, the MAX sessions are now coming online. Even if you didn't actually buy a ticket for MAX, you can watch all the sessions (just sessions, no labs) online for free at Adobe TV.

You can find my ORM session (not quite sure if they have both the Monday and Tuesday one - I think Monday went a bit better) here: http://tv.adobe.com/watch/max-2009-develop/introduction-to-coldfusion-orm/

You can download the code and slides themselves from the version I uploaded to SlideSix. I'd normally just embed that version below, but I'm having issues getting SlideSix to remember the recorded URL for my presentation.

If anyone has any questions about the code, please let me know. I'm going to do a blog entry that looks over the deeper examples from the presentation that I didn't have time to cover. Also - and I'd like some feedback on this - I was considering updating my long Transfer series. I think it could be cool to a 'entry to entry' update with ColdFusion 9.

Thanks Ray, you just helped me understand the power and ease of ORM!

Are these sessions "permanently" on Adobe TV? Or for a limited time only?

Great intro to ORM, I can't want to get in there and give it a try. Thanks for doing this and posting it!

Heard from Ted the man himself - the videos are there forever.

Awesome! That means I don't have to clear my schedule this week to watch stuff.

I *finally* got around to watching this presentation and I can't express how excited I am to start playing with ORM! I was a little hesitant at first, but once I started doing set's and get's in my own space (and using your ex's) I am really liking it!

Amazing presentation, as a developer on an intermediate skill level it was very easy to follow! Thank you!

You are welcome. As just an FYI, I'm giving it again to the Online CF Meetup in a few weeks. I'll have more than an hour so I'll be able to show more demos.

Hi Ray, I really enjoyed your presentation but I have a quick question. In my app.cfc I've set the dbcreate attribute to "true". I've then gone into a CFC i've created and changed the name and column attributes of several of the cfproperty tags. When i've restarted the app these changes have not been reflected in the database. Am I missing a step?

dbcreate=true isn't valid. If you check the Developers Guide, page 547, you will see the valid values: update, dropcreate, none.
