Now that ColdFusion 10 is out and with that support for Verity has been dropped. In CF901 both Solr and Verity were supported. But now only Solr search server is available. If you are still on CF8 (which do not have Solr) and directly migrating to CF10(which do not have Verity), there's no direct way to migrate your verity collections created in CF8 to Solr collection in CF10. I have posted the code to migrate Verity collection to Solr.Download this tool from my blog. However there's a difference in how searching is done in Verity and Solr. Here's a post

<cfset DatasourceCreate("enlist"    , {        drivername: "org.h2.Driver"        , hoststring: "jdbc:h2:" & ExpandPath('./') & "/WEB-INF/bluedragon/h2databases/enlist;AUTO_SERVER=TRUE;IGNORECASE=false;MODE=MySQL"        , initstring: "RUNSCRIPT FROM '#ExpandPath("../docs/sql")#/mysql_createDB.sql'\\;"        , databasename: "enlist"        , username: "enlist"        , password: "enlist"    }) /> Permalink Leave a comment  »

In ColdFusion 10, we have added support for creating and publishing REST services. You can now make the ColdFusion components available as REST services so that various clients can access them. REST stands for Representational State Transfer. It is an architectural style based on web standards and HTTP protocol. The idea here is to use [...]
