Gateway type

XMPP
Example
The following example uses an instance of the CFML gateway to log messages asynchronously to
a file. To use this example, you must configure an instance of the CFML gateway with the name
"Asynch Logger" in the ColdFusion MX Administrator. This gateway instance must use a CFC
that takes the message and logs it. For sample CFC code, see "Using the CFML event gateway for
asynchronous CFCs" in Chapter 42, "Using Event Gateways," in ColdFusion MX Developer's
Guide.
Sending an event to the CFML event gateway that is registered in the
ColdFusion MX Administrator as Asynch Logger.<br>
<cfscript>
status = false;
props = structNew();
props.message = "Replace me with a variable with data to log";
status = SendGatewayMessage("Asynch Logger", props);
if (status IS True) WriteOutput('Event Message "#props.message#" has been
sent.');
</cfscript>

Return values
If the gateway is in asynchronous mode, returns the empty string
immediately.
If the gateway is in synchronous mode, the function waits for the gateway
to return a response. If the message was succesfully sent to the short
message service center (SMSC), returns the message ID from the SMSC.
If an error occured, returns a string indicating the cause.
If the message or command was successful, returns OK
If an error occured, returns a string indicating the cause.
