Hi, Are you passing from java to CF or CF to java? Your subject suggests the later, but > java.util.Map wc = new java.util.Map(); suggests the former.
Your compiler problem is easy enough to solve, use one of the java implementations of map. Head to the java doc at http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api, and lookup Map, then close to the top of the doc for Map there will be a list of "All Known Implementing Classes" eg HashMap (An interface in java merely describes methods that an object/class must define to adhere to that interface, so you can't instantiate an interface because it has no code to run those methods. You must find a class that implements those methods and that interface) > Do you think I could use this data type in my Code like so? > coldfusion.runtime.Struct wc = new coldfusion.runtime.Struct(); > > Where would I find the libraries? > Would this be bad practice? You could probably do that, the libraries would probably be in a jar somewhere in your CF server directory. Though as you don't have access to any doc on it, you won't have a clear definition of the objects behaviour (nor will maintainers of your code), so you would probably be better off working with a java class you know, either a predifined java class, or a specialised class if you require that much specialisation.
