They're unrelated really. JMS is just a mechanism for sending /
receiving data asynchronously usually in a hub and spoke architecture.
You still have to write Java code to send / receive a message and do
something with it.

Blackstone's event gateway is really a framework for Java code to call
CFC methods and get results back - so that you can arrange for CFC
methods to handle non-HTTP requests. The Java code is the bridge
between the non-HTTP request and the ColdFusion code.

Consequently you can use the Blackstone event gateway framework to
write Java to receive JMS messages and pass them to a CFC method for
processing, just as you could receive SMS messages or any other
protocol in Java and pass them to a CFC method.

Does that clarify things?
