WebSphere MQ JMS Application Server Facilities

 

WebSphere MQ JMS supports the Application Server Facilities (ASF) that are specified in the Java™ Message Service Specification, Version 1.1 (see Sun's Java Web site at http://java.sun.com). This specification identifies three roles within this programming model:

• The JMS provider supplies ConnectionConsumer and advanced Session functionality.

• The application server supplies ServerSessionPool and ServerSession functionality.

• The client application uses the functionality that the JMS provider and application server supply.

This topic does not apply if you use a direct connection to a broker.

The following sections contain details about how WebSphere MQ JMS implements ASF:

• ASF classes and functions describes how WebSphere MQ JMS implements the ConnectionConsumer class and advanced functionality in the Session class.

• Application server sample code describes the sample ServerSessionPool and ServerSession code that is supplied with WebSphere MQ JMS.

• Examples of ASF use describes supplied ASF samples and examples of ASF use from the perspective of a client application.
