I know I talk a lot about Coldfusion and CFEclipse etc, but one of the frameworks that I havent been exposed to has been Mach II. Not a great bane of my life or anything but I simply havent been exposed to it to really know whats “good” about it and what it gives me as a developer.

Sean Corfield put a recent entry in his Architect’s View blog about this tutorial, which even if its a part one does give a good insight into getting started with the Mach II framework.

This is interesting particularly to me since I contribute to the CFEclipse project and have my own Fusebox plugin for CFEclipse. One of the things that astounded me was that as I had started developing the plugin for Fusebox 3 was how easlity I could include support for Fusebox 4 since it was basically parsing and XML document.

One of the thoughts, if no one else is doing it is to also add Mach II support. But first, I have to get my head round Mach II! So this tutorial is a great starter for 10
