dcCom Open Source Component Framework for Coldfusion launched.

At long last, after many sleepless nights, the developers at Digital Crew have unleashed a powerful component architecture on the world - things will never be the same again.

dcCom is an Open Source framework for building reusable ColdFusion components. Each component is really a collection of one or more files including ColdFusion templates, images and/or flash movies archived in a folder. The folder name is the name of the component and is located in a special directory called "components". All dcCom compatible components are accessed through a single ColdFusion custom tag <cf_dcCom>.

A hypothetical dcCom component call might look like:
<cf_dcCom component="fileManager" directory="c:/" action="selectFile" jsVar="myFile">click me</cf_dcCom>

In this example the file manager component might be a powerful component for selecting a server file and assigning it to a JavaScript variable, a hidden field or input box, for instance.

OR

<cf_dcCom component="loginDialog"> to draw an image based username and password login interface.

Take a look at some real dcCom tags at work.
