Code Compatibility Analyzer page

The Code Compatibility Analyzer evaluates your ColdFusion pages for potential
incompatibilities between ColdFusion MX and ColdFusion Server 5.

Extensions section

You use the Extensions section of the Administrator to configure ColdFusion MX to work with
other technologies, such as Java and CORBA. This section contains the Java Applets, CFX Tags,
Custom Tag Paths, and CORBA Connectors pages.

Java Applets page

The Java Applets page of the Administrator lets you register applets and edit and delete applet
registrations. Before you can use Java applets in your ColdFusion applications, you must register
them in the Java Applets page.
When your applet is registered with ColdFusion MX, using the
code is very simple, because all parameters are predefined. Simply enter the applet source and the
form variable name you want to use.
Note: Parameters set in the
For more information, see the online Help.

CFX Tags page

Before you can use a CFX tag in ColdFusion applications, you must register it. You use the CFX
Tags page to register and manage ColdFusion custom tags built with C++ and Java.
You can build CFX tags in the following two ways:
•
Using C++ as a dynamic link library (DLL) in Windows; as shared objects (so/sl) on Solaris,
Linux, and HP-UX
•
Using Java interfaces defined within the cfx.jar file
For more information, see the online Help.

Custom Tag Paths page

You use the Custom Tag Paths page of the Administrator to add, edit, and delete custom tag
directory paths. The default custom tag path is under the installation directory. To use custom
tags in another path, register the path on this Administrator page.
For more information, see the online Help.

CORBA Connectors page

You use the CORBA Connectors page of the Administrator to register, edit, and delete CORBA
connectors. You must register CORBA connectors before using them in your ColdFusion
applications. You must also restart the server when you are done with the CORBA Connector
configuration.
