BlueDragon 7.1: Deploying CFML on ASP.NET and the Microsoft .NET Framework 2
1.3 About BlueDragon
The core technology of BlueDragon is a CFML runtime and execution module that, in BlueDra-
gon.NET, is implemented as a standard ASP.NET HTTPHandler. This allows the deployment of
CFML pages onto the .NET framework and IIS without installing proprietary
Allaire/Macromedia ColdFusion server software.
BlueDragon is highly compatible with Macromedia’s ColdFusion MX 7.0 Server, with some li-
mitations but also many enhancements. Beside those mentioned in this guide, see the BlueDra-
gon 7.1 CFML Compatibility Guide and BlueDragon 7.1 CFML Enhancements Guide for details:
1.4 System Requirements
http://www.newatlanta.com/products/bluedragon/self_help/docs/index.cfm
BlueDragon is a highly optimized, high-performance CFML runtime engine. CFML pages are
compiled into an internal representation that is cached in memory and executed by the BlueDra-
gon runtime when CFML pages are requested by client browsers.
BlueDragon 7.1 for the Microsoft .NET Framework is supported on Windows Server 2008, Win-
dows Vista, Windows Server 2003, and Windows XP.
BlueDragon.NET 7.1 requires the Microsoft .NET Framework version 2.0 or higher which can
be installed using the Windows Update service, or may be downloaded and installed manually.
BlueDragon.NET 7.1 requires the Visual J# 2.0 Redistributable Package – Second Edition; how-
ever, if this is not present the BlueDragon installer will install it for you. If you have already in-
stalled the original Visual J# 2.0 Redistributable Package (not the Second Edition), it must be
uninstalled before you install the Second Edition redistributable.
BlueDragon.NET 7.1 requires the Visual C++ 2005 SP1 Redistributable Package; however, if
this is not present the BlueDragon installer will install it for you.
