Parameters

Parameter

Description

gatewayID

The ID of the gateway. This parameter indicates the source of the message and must be the value that is passed in the Gateway constructor or set using the Gateway setGatewayID method.

Usage

This method creates a container for an event gateway message that you send to ColdFusion MX gateway services in a gatewayServices.addEvent method for delivery to a CFC listener method.

Example

The following example, based on code for the ColdFusion asynchronous CFML gateway, sends a message to that the gateway has received to a CFC:

public String outgoingMessage(coldfusion.eventgateway.CFEvent cfmsg)
{
	// Get the data
	Map data = cfmsg.getData();
	boolean status = true;
	if (data != null)
	{
		// create an event
		CFEvent event = new coldfusion.eventgateway.CFEvent(gatewayID);
		//set the event field values
		event.setGatewayType("CFMLGateway");
		event.setOriginatorID("CFMLGateway");
		event.setData(data);
		// send it to the event service
		status = gatewayService.addEvent(event);
	}
		return new Boolean(status).ToString();
}
