Note: The WLI JMS control is available in WebLogic Workshop only if you are licensed to use WebLogic Integration.

JMS (Java Message Service) is a Java API for communicating with messaging systems. Messaging systems are often packaged as products known as Message-Oriented Middleware (MOMs). WebLogic Server includes built in messaging capabilities via WebLogic JMS, but can also work with third-party MOMs. Messaging systems are often used in enterprise applications to communicate with legacy systems, or for communication between business components running in different environments or on different hosts.

The WLI JMS control enables WebLogic Workshop business processes to easily interact with messaging systems that provide a JMS implementation. A specific WLI JMS control is associated with particular facilities of the messaging system. Once a WLI JMS control is defined, business processes may use it like any other WebLogic Workshop control.

The WLI JMS control is an extension of the JMS control, providing additional features such as RawData message type support, dynamic property configuration, and the ability to control whether to start a new transaction or remain within the calling transaction. You can use the JMS Event Generator to poll for and consume messages produced by the WLI JMS control.
