Using ColdFusion components

ColdFusion components (CFCs) let you encapsulate application and business logic into self-contained, reusable units. CFCs also provide a fast, easy way to create web services.

You can use Dreamweaver to create and modify CFCs. You can also use Dreamweaver to build web pages that use CFCs.

NOTE

You can use CFCs only with Macromedia ColdFusion MX or later. CFCs are not supported in ColdFusion 5.
