Why, funny you should suggest that. Our May presentation, "What's New in CF
MX?", has a simple example integrating the Jakarta io library:
http://www.cfugorama.com/cfugorama/codelibrary/CFMX.cfm

It's too easy, though. You just drop the library into the /WEB-INF/lib
directory, use CFIMPORT to give it a name, then reference that name as a
tag. According to the docs, the io library supports HTTPS, but they don't
mention any dependencies, so you shouldn't have to worry about JSSE.

As for JSSE, we had a guest speaker last year who did a great presentation
on a Java CFX which used JSSE and JAXP - he named his tag "CFX_JsseJaxon" -
to act as a web service client. Unfortunately, he didn't post his code
sample, but I can ask him to forward you his code sample, if you're
interested.
