(Note that prior to Java 9, releases of Java were known technically as 1.x, to 8 is referred to in resources below as 1.8.) I'd shared the news in a tweet last week, but was delayed in getting this post out.The new updates are 1.8.0_311, (aka 8u311), 11.0.13, and 17.0.2, respectively).For more on them, including information on the security fixes and bug fixes they each contain, see the Oracle resources I list below, as well as some additional info I offer for if you may be skipping to this from a JVM update from before Apr 2021, as well as info for Adobe ColdFusion users on where to find the updated Java versions, what JVM versions Adobe CF supports, and more.https://www.carehart.org/blog/client/index.cfm/2022/1/24/java_updates_Jan_2021/Blog - Ben Nadel - 100% Of BenNadel.com Traffic Now Flows Through The CloudFlare CDN (For Free)Back in November, I talked about upgrading my blogging platform to use Adobe ColdFusion 2021. And, what started out as a ColdFusion-focused revamp has evolved into a full-court press of all aspects. From implementing Dark Mode using CSS custom properties to finally dropping support for IE11, I'm trying to poke, tweak, prod, and tickle anything that looks old and crufty. As the result of my most recent step in this journey, 100% of my site's traffic is now flowing through the CloudFlare CDN (Content Delivery Network); and, it's doing so for free.https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4189-100-of-bennadel-com-traffic-now-flows-through-the-cloudflare-cdn-for-free.htm Blog - Wil De Bruin - Logbox: modify your message format.In my previous post I explained some of the basics of Logbox, including the use of appenders. An appender is just a component which takes care of sending your log messages to some message repository, such as a file, console, socket, email, database and so on. Logbox is very handy because it has a standard format to send your log messages and optionally extra info. But sometimes you want to send extra information and show it in a nice format in your logs. Logbox has two ways to modify the output: Layout components and custom appenders.In most cases Logbox is sending the following informationhttps://shiftinsert.nl/logbox-modify-your-message-format/Tweet - James Moberg - FastCopy for CFMLFastCopy 4.0 has just been released.
