This is a POC / WIP. I have been looking for a CF or Java solution to parse addresses.
What I have found so far that works best is a Python library.
The good thing is I came across a blog post by Mark Mandel RUNNING PYTHON ON COLDFUSION there is Jthon that allows you to run Python from Java & we all know you can run Java from CF.
The Python code I want to run is here
There is a nice web based example of it here
QUESTIONS:
- Is there a PURE CF solution?
- Is there a better Java solution?
- Will this CF/Java/Python thing run like a slug?
- Is there anything I missed?
