WhosOnCFC is now available for download

Well, I really don't like releasing things back to back, but it wasn't that hard to modify the latest version of WhosOn (which would be version 3 for those of you out there counting) to WhosOnCFC.  As the name implies, the new version moves to a component.  I tried to keep the implementation as close to the original system as possible.  Every request populates a structure with whatever information about the user you wish to track.  That information is passed to the WhosOnUserTracker() function which in turn adds or updates its user information, depending on whether or not the user is already being tracked.

Originally I was going to release WhosOnCFC with Rob Gonda's ObjectFactory CFC, but I haven't heard back from Rob and I did not want to release any of his work without his go ahead.  Dan Wilson was kind enough to point out Lightwire CFC, which is a light-weight object factory allowing dependency injection, but as I posted earlier it was still a little over-kill for my little demo application.  My thinking on this is, if you are advanced enough to using it, you probably don't need me to show you how to make it work with my component.

This is just a basic, functioning component with no bells and whistles.  It is intended as a basic framework for you to play around with.  It is packaged with an sample application to get you up and running.  As always, I would love to hear any questions or comments you have.  Again, I would like to thank all the really cool folks in #coldfusion on DalNet for helping me out when I needed some advice or just breaking the monotony of some generally boring days.
