Java Customization and Configuration

You use the ColdFusion Administrator to customize your Java development
environment, such as customizing the Class Path, Java system properties, and
specifying an alternate JVM.

Implementing C++ CFX Tags

CFX tags built in C++ use the tag request object, represented by the C++ class
CCFXRequest. This object represents a request made from an application page to a
custom tag. A pointer to an instance of a request object is passed to the main
procedure of a custom tag. The methods available from the request object allow the
custom tag to accomplish its work. See the
detailed description of the CFXAPI classes and members.

Registering CFXs

To use a CFX tag in your ColdFusion applications, first register it in the Extensions, CFX
Tags page in the ColdFusion Administrator.
To register the tag in the CF Administrator:
1. In the CF Administrator, open the Extensions > CFX Tags page.
2. Enter
3. Select the type of tag (either C++ or Java).
4. Click Add to open the New CFX Tag page.
