Configuring ActiveMQ for JNDI

The examples in this book all use JNDI to connect to the JMS provider and obtain the JMS destinations (queues and topics). Therefore, you will need to create a jndi.properties file for each example. This property file contains the connection information, connection factory names, and destination names used by the sample code in each chapter. The code in this book is designed to be run with a centralized broker model, meaning that there is a separate and distinct JMS server running in its own JVM that JMS clients connect to.

In keeping with the spirit of the Java platform, we chose to use JNDI in the examples to make the source code JMS provider agnostic, allowing you to use any JMS provider supporting JNDI (as most do). In general, the jndi.properties file for the sample code in the book will require six properties to be set:

java.naming.factory.initial

The initial context factory specific to each provider

java.naming.provider.url

The protocol, address, and port of the JMS provider

java.naming.security.principal

The user ID used to connect to the JMS provider

java.naming.security.credentials

The password used to connect to the JMS provider

connectionFactoryNames

The name(s) of the connection factory used to obtain JMS connections

topic.<topicname> (or queue.<queuename>)

The JNDI name of the destination object (queue or topic)

ActiveMQ contains a configuration file located in the ACTIVEMQ_HOME/conf directory called activemq.xml. This file contains most of the configuration ...
