RDS CRUD wizard

The Remote Development Services (RDS) CRUD Wizard lets you dynamically create a
ColdFusion component (CFC) based on a table that is registered in the ColdFusion
Administrator on a ColdFusion server. To use the RDS CRUD wizard, you must have the
Eclipse RDS Support plug-in installed. (The Eclipse RDS Support plug-in is installed when
you install the ColdFusion wizards.)
The RDS CRUD Wizard lets you create the following types of CFCs:
ActiveRecord style CRUD CFC, which includes all of the properties, get and set methods,
■
and SQL methods in one CFC. The CFC includes the following methods:
() or (primary key value)
init init
(primary key value)

Bean/DAO style CRUD CFCs, which creates two related CFCs:
■
A Bean CFC, also called a Value Object, which contains the property definitions and
■
get and set methods.
The DAO CFC, which contains the following methods:
■
(primary key value)

(cfc instance)
