JavaDoc

Message Queue API documentation in JavaDoc format is included in your Message Queue installation at the locations shown in Table P–2, depending on your platform. This documentation can be viewed in any HTML browser. It includes standard JMS API documentation as well as Message Queue–specific APIs for Message Queue administered objects, which are of value to developers of messaging applications.

Table P–2 JavaDoc Locations


Platform	Location
Solaris	`/usr/share/javadoc/imq/index.html`
Linux	`/opt/sun/mq/javadoc/index.html`
Windows	`IMQ_HOME\javadoc\index.html` where `IMQ_HOME` is the Message Queue base directory set by the Message Queue Installer (`C:\Program Files\Sun\MessageQueue4` by default)

Example Client Applications

Example client applications providing sample Java application code using JMX are included in your Message Queue installation at the locations shown in Table P–3, depending on your platform.
