public interface AQAgent
```
An Agent represents and identifies a user of the queue, either producer or consumer of the message, either an end-user or an application. An Agent is identified by a name, an address and a protocol. The name can be either assigned by the application, or be the application itself. The address is determined in terms of the communication protocol. If the protocol is 0 (default), the address is of the form[schema.]queuename[@dblink], a database link.
