can be done in Java can trigger an event. The receiving end (the methods
that can triggered when an event occurs) is what is written in CFML (as a
CFC). Gateway types are registered in the ColdFusion Administrator, and then
one or more instances of each type may be defined (each mapped to a CFC file
and a configuration file). When an event occurs a method is invoked, and a
structure is passed to it containing details about the event (what it was,
any passed data, etc.).

My understanding is that anything that can throw a java event can be
coded into a gateway to interact with Blackstone. I do believe they are
specific event types.
