It includes a single-user version of the Professional Edition for Windows, and it can connect to any Cold Fusion Application Server 3.1. The single-user version of Cold Fusion Application Server has the same requirements as the full version. Database Cold Fusion Studio uses Cold Fusion Application Server single-user Professional Edition to connect to ODBC databases on the workstation where it is installed and either Workgroup or Professional to connect to databases on a remote server. Browser Studio supports the ability to preview pages within the editor. This requires Microsoft Internet Explorer 3.01 or higher.
Studio can launch any external browser.
Applications created with Cold Fusion Studio can be deployed to any browser on any platform or network device. A sea of praise adds up to high marks for Cold Fusion Studio. Certainly, no Cold Fusion programmer should work without it going forward, and others will find much to like as well. I expect its open XML architecture and VTML extension capabilities to keep Studio ahead of the competition for some time to come. Fully integrated with Cold Fusion Studio's visual tools, Application Server provides high-performance and sophisticated functionality for deploying scalable applications with any major Web server on Windows or Solaris.
