Using Java objects

You use the cfobject tag to create an instance of a Java object. You use other ColdFusion tags, such as cfset and cfoutput, or CFScript to invoke properties (attributes), and methods (operations) on the object.

Method arguments and return values can be any valid Java type; for example, simple arrays and objects. ColdFusion does the appropriate conversions when strings are passed as arguments, but not when they are received as return values. For more information on type conversion issues, see Java and ColdFusion data type conversions.

The examples in this discussion assume that the name attribute in the cfobject tag specified the value obj, and that the object has a property called Property, and methods called Method1, Method2, and Method3.
