Description |
---|
ColdFusion allows applications to add application variables to the Servlet Context. This allows an application to add data or change configuration data for all hosted applications. By sharing data across applications, the applications are no longer isolated with one application affecting other applications. By disabling this capability, the hosted applications, including the Administrator Console, are isolated. |
