History

Adobe ColdFusion (2016 release)

Added the attribute wsversion.

Added the following NTLM attributes:

• authType
• ntlmDomain
• workstation

ColdFusion 8:

• Added password, proxyPassword, proxyPort, proxyServer, proxyUser, refreshWSDL, userName, wsdl2JavaArgs, and wsportname attributes to for use with web service objects.
• Added .NET/dotnet type and the associated assembly, port, protocol, and secure attributes.
  ColdFusion MX:
• Changed instantiation behavior: this tag, and the CreateObject function, can now instantiate ColdFusion components (CFCs); you can use them within the cfscript tag.
• For CORBA object: changed the Naming Service separator format for addresses from a dot to a forward slash. For example, if "context=NameService", for a class, use either of the following formats for the classparameter:
  • "/Eng/CF"
  • ".current/Eng.current/CF"
    (In earlier releases, the format was ".Eng.CF".)
• For CORBA object: changed the locale attribute; it specifies the Java configuration that contains the properties file.
