Java Messaging Service Terminology

When using the oracle.jms Java package, keep in mind the following:

• The JMS equivalent of enqueue is Send.

• The destination of messages is a Queue, without any qualification.

• The container of messages is a Topic, with the idea being that each application can Publish on or Subscribe to a given topic.

• Topic in JMS maps to a Multi-Consumer Queue in the other AQ interfaces.

• The Java package oracle.jms extends the public JMS standard to allow for defined recipient lists.
