Configuring an event gateway instance

Before you develop or deploy an event gateway application, you must use the ColdFusion MX Administrator to configure an event gateway instance that will handle the event messages. You specify the following information:

• An event gateway ID to identify the specific event gateway instance. You use this value in the CFML GetGatewayHelper and SendGatewayMessage functions.
• The event gateway type, which you select from the available event gateway types, such as SMS or Socket.
• The absolute path to the listener CFC or CFCs that will handle incoming messages. If you have multiple listener CFCs, enter the paths separated by commas. You must specify absolute file paths, even if you put the CFCs in the ColdFusion MX gateway\cfc directory.
• A configuration file, if required for this event gateway type or instance.
• The event gateway start-up status; one of the following:

  Automatic Start the event gateway when ColdFusion starts.

  Manual Do not start the event gateway with ColdFusion, but allow starting it from the ColdFusion MX Administrator Event Gateways list.

  Disabled Do not allow the event gateway to start.
