bx-compat-cfml: CFML Compatibility Layer
Installation
install-bx-module bx-compat-cfml
# CommandBox
box install bx-compat-cfml
Purpose
bx-compat-cfml enables near-zero-code migration of existing Adobe ColdFusion or Lucee CFML applications to BoxLang. It adjusts BoxLang's behavior to match your source engine's quirks around:
- Null handling and empty-string coercion
- Type coercion and comparison behavior
- Server scope population
- JSON parsing and serialization
- Query null handling
