ColdMVC and railo

[Joe]

I've recently switched to railo and I am having alot of issues
converting. Has anyone tried to run coldmvc on railo.
At first it couldn't find coldmvc then on index.cfm i manually ran
onapplicationstart(). then i get this one...

The Error Occurred in
C:\workspace\coldmvc\Application.cfc: line 120

118:
119: var xml = toString(beans);
120: xml = replace(xml, "<!---->", "", "all");

after this one i get a permgen error

Made a partial breakthrough...

add a component mapping to coldmvc in railo server admin

then it said datasource [workspace] was missing which was odd, cause i
thought it would be the name of my project not the webroot, but i
created it anyways just to pile through the stuff

then its asked me for a dialect so i added this.ormsettings.dialect =
"MicrosoftSQLServer"; to my projects app cfc.

now iam getting this error
key [BEANFACTORY] doesn't exist in struct (keys:SETTINGS)
The Error Occurred in
C:\workspace\coldmvc\Application.cfc: line 212

210: private any function getBeanFactory() {
211:
212: return application.coldmvc.beanFactory;
213:
214: }

looks like its not setting the pluginmanager or beanfactory in the
"coldmvc" variable in application scope. going to keep piling through
it.

So I feel like a bit of loner out here. But I will keep posting incase
someone else is having this issue as well.

I am hacking up coldmvc alot. Mostly turning the comment style
annoatations to attributes on the funcs and components. But i ran into
an issue where the framework is trying to inject the $ and coldmvc as
scopes into the pagecontext. Its in the helperManager addScope(). It's
using adobe undocumented funcs. Is their another way to write it.

ColdMVC doesn't currently support Railo due to usage of Adobe ColdFusion's undocumented hiddenScope functionality which is used to create the params, flash, coldmvc, and $ scopes. You could try to hack the framework to load those scopes somewhere else (form scope?), but I'm not sure if it would fix everything, since I haven't spent much time with Railo.
