WebSphere MQ Java Message Service (MQ JMS)

MQ JMS is a set of Java™ classes that enables JMS applications using WebSphere MQ as the messaging provider.

The JMS API is an open standard API for sending and receiving messages. It allows components based on Java Platform, Enterprise Edition (Java EE) to create, send, receive, and read messages. Using this standard makes your MQ applications more portable and allows your MQ applications to use different JMS implementations for different circumstances. In MQ JMS, both the point-to-point and publish-subscribe distribution of messages are supported unlike MQ, which is limited to point-to-point.

This section leads you through the generation of an MQ JMS import and export binding.

• WebSphere MQ JMS programming model
  The WebSphere MQ JMS programming model is discussed in this section.
• MQ and MQ JMS features
  Several features of MQ and MQ JMS bindings and how SCA artifacts work with them are discussed.
• Work with MQ JMS bindings
  MQ JMS bindings can be generated for imports and exports with either a one-way operation or request-response operation. All cases are discussed in this section.
• Create applications with MQ JMS bindings
  Building applications that use MQ JMS bindings are shown in this section.
• Limitations of the JMS, MQ JMS and generic JMS bindings
