Although earlier versions of ColdFusion supported Java objects and servlets to some degree, ColdFusion MX does so in a big way. This support opens up commercially available libraries to ColdFusion developers that were previously only available to J2EE shops.

This availability greatly enhances the features of your own applications and speeds your ColdFusion-based solutions to market. Use these objects to provide back-end processing or user-interface functionality, or simplify coding CFM pages by supplementing ColdFusion functions and tags with Java TagLibraries.
