6.4.3 Stand-alone Java application
With message provider specific APIs, you can access JMS resources in stand-alone Java
applications. For example, you can use ActiveMQ API ActiveMQConnectionFactory
to access JMS resources in Community Edition.
To access JMS resources in Community Edition using ActiveMQConnectionFactory, you
need to add following packages under /repository/ in the classpath:
org/apache/activemq/activeio-core/3.0.1/activeio-core-3.0.1.jar
org/apache/activemq/activemq-core/4.1.2/activemq-core-4.1.2.jar
org/apache/geronimo/specs/geronimo-jms_1.1_spec/1.1.1/geronimojms_1.1_spec-1.1.1.jar
backport-util-concurrent/backport-util-concurrent/2.2/backport-utilconcurrent-2.2.jar
commons-logging/commons-logging/1.0.4/commons-logging-1.0.4.jar
org/apache/geronimo/specs/geronimo-j2eemanagement_1.1_spec/1.0.1/geronimo-j2ee-management_1.1_spec-1.0.1.jar
After that, you can use ActiveMQConnectionFactory in your stand-alone Java application.
The code snippet in Listing 6.5 shows how to use the JMS resources in a stand-alone Java
application.
ActiveMQConnectionFactory connectionFactory = new
ActiveMQConnectionFactory("tcp://localhost:61616");
Connection connection = connectionFactory.createConnection();
Session session =
connection.createSession(false,Session.AUTO_ACKNOWLEDGE);
Destination topic = session.createQueue("myTopic");

6.5 Summary
In this chapter we discussed the typical steps to develop JMS applications. We also
described how to configure a JMS resource group and how to develop JMS applications
with the created JMS resource in Community Edition.
