As with previous years the team from Synthis were there with their Adalon product, an *ALL* new 3.0 version. I grabbed a demo disk in between a couple of sessions and i must say i’m very very impressed. It’s fast, easier to use, now supports Fusebox 4.0 (MVC or not). In fact, I built my entire website in it (just for fun) in under an hour (about 4 circuits and 100 fuses) and the code it produced was pretty spot on. You can control application properties from within Adalon, stuff like fuseactionvariables, defaultfuseaction etc (the parameters section of fusebox.xml.cfm). Remember, it is a BETA release, there a number of things missing - eg no plugin control, default fuseaction list returns only fuseaction names (although stores using circuit.fuseaction syntax), I suggested to Wells that it only returns ‘public’ circuits/fuseactions. The forms for data collection are now all defined in simple XML so it’s super fast to customize a form, eg adding contentvariable support to the include verb in 4.1.
If you’ve used a previous version of Adalon then you’re going to be amazed at how much better is 3.0 is - i’d encourage you to check it out on the new Adalon website, www.adalon.net (download still to be released).
