Sun Java System Message Queue 4.2 Release Notes

Component Dependencies

In addition to platform-specific requirements, Message Queue 4.2 also depends on certain basic components that must be installed in order to develop and run Message Queue clients. Table 1–3 describes these components. Other versions or vendor implementations can also be used, but they are untested by Sun Microsystems and therefore not officially supported.


Note –

The Message Queue Installer allows you to select an existing JDK/JRE or to install the JDK version (1.5.0_15).
