Fusebox 5.5 Implicit Circuit Pathing
Posted on September 13, 2007 at 7:21 PM in Fusebox
The other day Sean released a FB5.5 update to the Cat Club demo application, so I downloaded it to play around a bit with the new toy. I am truly excited about the option to eliminate XML from one's Fusebox applications.
IMPORTANT: The XML is still perfectly valid, and the FB5.5 release will *not* break older apps. As a matter of fact, I have several 5.1 applications that are now running on the 5.5 core, without a single keystroke change to the code.
When I unzipped and ran the Cat Club demo from the webroot, it performed flawlessly. And fast? Yes! Very. "So far so good," I thought, and then I went to putting together my own little demo app, utilizing the implicit circuit feature (no XML). That's when I stubbed my toe, fell down, and skinned up my knees.
