System Requirements

Below you can see all the system requirements ColdBox needs.

CFML Engines

Adobe ColdFusion MX 7.X and above.
BlueDragon 7.X and above.
Railo 2.0 and above

Note : CF7 compatibility will be dropped by ColdBox 3.1 and beyond.

CF Specific

Application scope enabled for framework operation
Ability to create components and java objects using CreateObject()

OS

Windows, Mac OS X, Unix/Linux

Optional Requirements

These optional requirements are for specific ColdBox plugins.

Session scope enabled for the messagebox, i18N, flash RAM persistance.
Client scope enabled for the messagebox, i18N, and clientstorage, flash RAM persistance plugins.

CacheBox, MockBox, LogBox, WireBox

Some of our internal frameworks requires ColdFusion 8 and above.

Known Issues

Adobe ColdFusion > 8

When using event caching on views/layouts that use the server side HTML generation tags like cftooltip, cflayout, cfgrid, basically all the new ajax enhancing tags, the html saved will be non-functional html. This is due to how ColdFusion 8 generates the HTML at browser flush time, not during the frameworks layouts/view rendering. The only way this will work, is if ColdFusion 8 changes how it renders these tags. Sorry, no workaround for this one as of yet.

BlueDragon version 7.X Known Issues

Some of the samples will not work under BlueDragon due to that I built most of them for Adobe ColdFusion. This also goes for some plugins. Below is a detailed list of what not works and is not supported for BlueDragon 7.X.

JavaLoader : The plugin and sample app do not work on BlueDragon.
i18N Sample & Plugin : Some i18N methods do not work. This is left to user discretion.
ColdBoxReader : Will not work due to that it depends on ColdSpring

These are the only know issues with BlueDragon that have been recorded. If you find more issues, please report them to bugs@coldbox.org or post them at the Forums. You can also find more documentation on BlueDragon at their Documentation Section
