Java Server Pages integration_12

ColdFusion MX is built on top of the same platform that runs JSP (or Java Server Pages). You

can, therefore, include JSP pages in your application, and you can share variables between

ColdFusion and JSP! We can set a Session variable, for example, in MyCFPage.cfm as follows:

<cfset Session.myvar = 1>

And we can then output it on MyJSPPage.jsp as follows:

<%= session.getAttribute("myvar") %>

This example may illustrate only the general principle behind sharing data between the two

platforms, but imagine the possibilities. For more information about integrating ColdFusion
