tracker issue : CF-3039239

Problem:

Event argument keys for a DataServicesMessaging gateway's onIncomingMessage function are now case sensitive. This is a change from ColdFusion 8.The following simple DataServicesMessaging gateway worked in CF 8:

<cfcomponent>
 <cffunction name="onIncomingMessage" retruntype="any"> 
            <cfargument name="event" type="struct" required="true">                
			<cfdump var="#event#" output="C:\event.txt">
			<cfset msg = StructNew() />        
			<cfset msg.destination = "ColdFusionGateway">        
			<cfset msg.body["msg"] = event.data.body.msg />        
			<cfset msg.headers["username"] = event.data.headers.username />                
			<cfreturn msg/>
  </cffunction>
</cfcomponent>

<!---
In CF 9 the above has to be modified to:
<cfcomponent>    
<cffunction name="onIncomingMessage" retruntype="any">
	<cfargument name="event" type="struct" required="true">
		<cfset msg = StructNew() />
		<cfset msg.destination = "ColdFusionGateway">
		<cfset msg.body["msg"] = event["DATA"]["body"]["msg"] />
		<cfset msg.headers["username"] = event["DATA"]["headers"]["username"] />

 <cfreturn msg/>        

 </cffunction>
 </cfcomponent>

Method:

Attempt to access event argument keys using standard dot notation. Below are simple Flex client and gateway that demonstrate the error.Simple Flex Chat Client:
