Java Messaging and SOAP transport

If you want to use Java Messaging and SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol) Support, we need a Java Runtime Environment V1.4.2 or later. An appropriate runtime environment is provided in the JDK provided on the WebSphere MQ Server CD-ROM. See WebSphere MQ Components for package information.

The JDK available on the server CD-ROM is:

• IBM 32-bit SDK for Linux on Intel architecture, Java 2 Technology Edition, V1.4.2

This JDK provides support for SOAP and is FIPS 140-2 compliant. The 64-bit version of this JDK is also available on the x86-64 platform.

For a list of alternative JDKs, see

www.ibm.com/software/integration/websphere/mqplatforms/supported.html

For further information about using Java with WebSphere MQ see, Using Java.

For further information about SOAP see, the WebSphere MQ Transport for SOAP book.

If you use a JDK other than the one supplied by WebSphere MQ V6.0 you should be aware that:

• The JDK may not be FIPS level 140-2 compliant and by using it with WebSphere MQ, WebSphere MQ V6.0 will not comply the FIPS 140-2 standards.

• SOAP is not supported.
