Introduction

The Java Message Service (JMS) API is a Java message-oriented middleware API for sending messages between two or more clients.

Here is some code to do a single test with ActiveMQ and WebSphere MQ.

I'll show how to install and quickly use ActiveMQ, but I'll not show how to install WebSphere MQ.

ActiveMQ

Linux/Mac OS X Daemon

Here are the steps to setup ActiveMQ:

1. Download the linux/unix binary distribution (i.e. apache-activemq-5.15.8.tar.gz)

2. Extract the files from the gzip file into your HOME directory.

3. Update .bash_profile to include ActiveMQ:

   export ACTIVEMQ_HOME=/Users/domiq44/apache-activemq-5.15.8 export PATH=$ACTIVEMQ_HOME/bin/macosx:$PATH

Here are the steps to run the ActiveMQ broker as a daemon in Linux or Unix systems:

1. Run activemq start

To stop the daemon process:

1. Run activemq stop

Windows Service

Here are the steps to setup ActiveMQ:

1. Download the linux/unix binary distribution (i.e. apache-activemq-5.15.8.zip)

2. Extract the files from the zip file into the place you want..

3. Update environment variable to include ActiveMQ:

   ACTIVEMQ_HOME=\the\place\you\choose\apache-activemq-5.15.8 PATH=%ACTIVEMQ_HOME%\bin\win64

Here are the steps to run the ActiveMQ broker as a service:

1. Run InstallService.bat

To stop the daemon process:

1. Run UninstallService.bat

Demo
