ABOUT THIS SESSION:

Our 6pm (US ET) talk on Thursday Jan 21 will be "Intro into Wheels Object Relational Mapping (ORM)", with Mike Henke. (For an introduction to CFWheels, see the recording of the talk earlier this month by Chris Peters. More at http://www.meetup.com/coldfusionmeetup/calendar/12231118/.)

TOPIC DESCRIPTION: (provided by the speaker)

An overview of Object Relational Mapping (ORM) and how is it used in Wheels. Learn how ORM simplifies your database interaction code. Mapping objects in your application to records in your database tables is a key concept in Wheels. We will take a look at exactly how this mapping is performed.

Thanks to the ColdFusion Community for supporting Wheels. Hat-tips to upcoming ColdFusion Conferences cf.Objective() and CFUnited for accepting and expressing interest in Wheels sessions. Individual thanks to Sean Corfield for asking people to submit Wheels topics to CFUnited and Charlie Arehart for hosting Wheels topics on the Online ColdFusion Meetup.

Come hear me present on the basics of ColdFusion on Wheels on ColdFusion Meetup this Thursday. The presentation is Thursday, January 7, 2010, at 6:00 pm Eastern Time.

I just sent this description over to Charlie Arehart:

Chris Peters demonstrates how to build a simple CRUD (create, read, update, delete) application using the ColdFusion on Wheels framework. By the end of the hour, you'll have a solid understanding of what it's like to build applications rapidly with Wheels. Surely, you'll be ready to give the framework a look on your own time!

This is recommended for novice users, those of you who haven't had the chance to try out Wheels, disenfranchised framework users, or anyone else who wants to come heckle me in the Acrobat Connect chatroom. :)
