Prerequisites

To use the examples in this section, a JMS provider must be configured and running. Please refer to the provider’s documentation for instructions on how to accomplish these tasks. Ensure that messages can be sent to topics and queues before proceeding with the examples.

For the JMS target connector example, you will need a utility to consume and view the messages created. For the JMS listening connector example, you will need a utility to create the messages. The exact details of these utilities depend on the provider. Some may provide an administrative console that you can use to view the contents of topics and queues, and possibly send new messages to them. Other providers may include sample Java programs that you can use to interact with the provider. Refer to the provider’s documentation for further details.

A special case exists for testing the JMS listening connector and queues when the provider is IBM MQSeries. In this instance, use Send Master to test the JMS listening connector.
