Overview

This tab defines configuration attributes for a general bridge destination for non-JMS messaging providers. Required attributes for this tab include the name of the general bridge destination within the domain, the name of the adapter used to communicate with the specified destination, the adapter CLASSPATH, and a list of properties to pass to the adapter.
Optionally, you can also specify a user name and password for each target and source general bridge destination

Description

Name A general bridge destination name for the actual JMS destination being mapped to the bridge. This name must be unique across a WebLogic domain. For example, if you are bridging between WebLogic Server releases 6.1 and 8.1, for the source destination you could change the default destination name to "61to81SourceDestination". Then when you create the corresponding target destination, you could name it as "61to81TargetDestination". Once the bridge destinations are configured, these names are listed as options in the Source Destination and Target Destination attributes on the Bridges - > General tab.MBean: weblogic.management.

BridgeDestinationMBeanAttribute: Name

Adapter JNDI Name The JNDI name of the resource adapter used to communicate with the general bridge destination. This name is specified in the adapter's deployment descriptor file and is used by the WebLogic Server Connector container to bind the adapter in WebLogic Server JNDI.
Note: If the adapter isn't deployed, use the Deployments -> Connector Modules node to deploy it.MBean: weblogic.management.
configuration.
BridgeDestinationMBeanAttribute: AdapterJNDIName
Default: JMS_XA_ADAPTER_JNDI
Adapter Classpath The CLASSPATH of the bridge destination. This is used mainly to connect to another release of WebLogic Server. When connecting to a destination that is running on WebLogic Server 6.0 or earlier, the bridge destination must supply a CLASSPATH that indicates the locations of the classes for the earlier WebLogic Server implementation.
Note: When connecting to a third-party JMS product, the bridge destination must supply the product's CLASSPATH in the WebLogic Server CLASSPATH. MBean: weblogic.management.
configuration.
BridgeDestinationMBeanAttribute: Classpath

Properties (key=value) Specifies all the properties of the bridge destination. The destination properties are string values that must be separated by a semicolon (;). The following properties are required for all JMS implementations:

ConnectionURL=

The URL used to establish a connection to the destination.

ConnectionFactoryJNDIName=

The JMS connection factory used to create a connection for the actual destination being mapped to the general bridge destination.

DestinationJNDIName=

The JNDI name of the actual destination being mapped to the general bridge destination.

DestinationType=

Specify whether the destination type is either a Queue or Topic.

InitialContextFactory=

The factory used to get the JNDI context.

BridgeDestinationMBeanAttribute: Properties

User Name The optional user name that the adapter will use to access the bridge destination.
Note: All operations done to the specified destination are done using this user name and the corresponding password. Therefore, the User Name/Password for the source and target destinations must have permission to the access the underlying destinations in order for the messaging bridge to work.

User Password The user password that the adapter uses to access the bridge destination. MBean: weblogic.management.
