GatewayServices class

GatewayServices getGatewayServices()

Static method that returns the GatewayServices object. Gateway code can call this method at any time, if required.

boolean addEvent(CFEvent msg)

Sends a CFEvent instance to ColdFusion for dispatching to a listener CFC. The event gateway uses this method to send all incoming messages to the application for processing. Returns False if the event is not added to the queue.

int getQueueSize()

Returns the current size of the ColdFusion event queue. This queue handles all messages for all gateways.

int getMaxQueueSize()

Returns the maximum size of the ColdFusion event queue, as set in the ColdFusion MX Administrator.

Logger getLogger()
Logger getLogger(String logfile)

Returns a ColdFusion Logger object that the event gateway can use to log information in the eventgateway.log log file (the default) or the specified log file.

The logfile attribute must be a file name without a file extension, such as mylogifile. ColdFusion MX puts the file in the ColdFusion logs directory and appends .log to the specified file name.

For information on using the logger object, see Logging events and using log files.
