Delighted to be speaking at Into the Box 2025, in early May

I'm delighted to announce that I've been selected to speak at the upcoming Into the Box event (in DC in early May), where I'll be presenting "Hidden Gems in FusionReactor: for BoxLang, ACF, and Lucee Users".

This should not be confused of course with the "Hidden Gems in CF2025" talk which I also just announced that I'd be presenting at the upcoming CF Summit East (next week in DC) and CFCamp (in Munich in late May). It'll be a busy few weeks! :-)

As with them, it's always a thrill to attend this annual event. Following is the topic description and more.

Presenting "Hidden Gems in CF2025" at CF Summit East in March, CFCamp in May

I'm delighted to announce that I've been selected to present my "Hidden Gems in ColdFusion 2025" talk at both the upcoming Adobe ColdFusion Summit East event (in DC in March), as well as the CFCamp conference (in Germany in late May).

It's always a thrill returning to these annual events. Following is the topic description and more.

A table of Java versions supported by given ColdFusion versions

Now that CF2025 has come out, supporting Java 21--and as ColdFusion and Java versions continue to evolve--you may wonder which version(s) of Java you can use with your current (or a given) version of ColdFusion.

You can't just use "any" jvm version with CF: it depends on first on what version of CF you are using, and then may even depend on what CF update has been applied to that CF version. (You also can't use Java from any vendor: Adobe supports only use of Oracle Java, and they license it for our use, as I discuss later.) And to be clear, currently ONLY CF2025 supports Java 21. (And with Java 24 coming out in Mar 2025 as the latest LTS or "long-term support" Java releases, note that NO CF version currently supports that.)

So in this post, I offer a table that clarifies things, listing the various recent CF versions (even those no longer supported) and what (LTS) Java versions they supported, including if some CF update of a version changes the Java version supported.
