ColdFusion components use the file extension <i>cfc</i> to differentiate them from ColdFusion templates (.cfm). </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Remoting">Remoting</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Adobe_ColdFusion&action=edit&section=23" title="Edit section: Remoting"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Component methods may be made available as web services with no additional coding and configuration. All that is required is for a method's access to be declared 'remote'. ColdFusion automatically generates a <a href="/wiki/Web_Services_Description_Language" title="Web Services Description Language">WSDL</a> at the URL for the component in this manner: http://path/to/components/Component.cfc?wsdl. Aside from SOAP, the services are offered in Flash Remoting binary format. </p><p>Methods which are declared remote may also be invoked via an HTTP GET or POST request. Consider the GET request as shown. <br /> </p> <pre>http://path/to/components/Component.cfc?method=search&query=your+query&mode=strict </pre> <p>This will invoke the component's search function, passing "your query" and "strict" as arguments. </p><p>This type of invocation is well-suited for <a href="/wiki/Ajax_(programming)" title="Ajax (programming)">Ajax</a>-enabled applications. ColdFusion 8 introduced the ability to serialize ColdFusion data structures to <a href="/wiki/JSON" title="JSON">JSON</a> for consumption on the client. </p><p>The ColdFusion server will automatically generate documentation for a component if you navigate to its URL and insert the appropriate code within the component's declarations. This is an application of component introspection, available to developers of ColdFusion components. Access to a component's documentation requires a password. A developer can view the documentation for all components known to the ColdFusion server by navigating to the ColdFusion URL. This interface resembles the <a href="/wiki/Javadoc" title="Javadoc">Javadoc</a> HTML documentation for Java classes. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Custom_Tags">Custom Tags</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Adobe_ColdFusion&action=edit&section=24" title="Edit section: Custom Tags"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>ColdFusion provides several ways to implement custom <a href="/wiki/Markup_language" title="Markup language">markup language</a> tags, i.e. those not included in the core ColdFusion language. These are especially useful for providing a familiar interface for web designers and content authors familiar with HTML but not <a href="/wiki/Imperative_programming" title="Imperative programming">imperative programming</a>. </p><p>The traditional and most common way is using CFML. A standard CFML page can be interpreted as a tag, with the tag name corresponding to the file name prefixed with "cf_". For example, the file IMAP.cfm can be used as the tag "cf_imap". Attributes used within the tag are available in the ATTRIBUTES scope of the tag implementation page. CFML pages are accessible in the same directory as the calling page, via a special directory in the ColdFusion web application, or via a CFIMPORT tag in the calling page. The latter method does not necessarily require the "cf_" prefix for the tag name. </p><p>A second way is the developments of CFX tags using Java or C++. CFX tags are prefixed with "cfx_", for example "cfx_imap". Tags are added to the ColdFusion runtime environment using the ColdFusion administrator, where JAR or DLL files are registered as custom tags. </p><p>Finally, ColdFusion supports JSP tag libraries from the JSP 2.0 language specification. JSP tags are included in CFML pages using the CFIMPORT tag. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Interactions_with_other_programming_languages">Interactions with other programming languages</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Adobe_ColdFusion&action=edit&section=25" title="Edit section: Interactions with other programming languages"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="ColdFusion_and_Java">ColdFusion and Java</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Adobe_ColdFusion&action=edit&section=26" title="Edit section: ColdFusion and Java"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The standard ColdFusion installation allows the deployment of ColdFusion as a <a href="/wiki/WAR_(Sun_file_format)" class="mw-redirect" title="WAR (Sun file format)">WAR file</a> or <a href="/wiki/EAR_(file_format)" title="EAR (file format)">EAR file</a> for deployment to standalone application servers, such as <a href="/w/index.php?title=Macromedia_JRun&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Macromedia JRun (page does not exist)">Macromedia JRun</a>, and IBM <a href="/wiki/WebSphere" class="mw-redirect" title="WebSphere">WebSphere</a>.
