All,

I would like to add JMS capability to my current OSGi based application.
I have been looking at ECF and its ActiveMQ support, and yes I'm having
problems.

The bundle org.eclipse.ecf.provider.jms.activemq shows up in equinox as
active, but I can't connect. I get "connection refused" when I attempt to
create the connection. In stepping through the code, I have noticed the
use of "defaultUser" and "defaultPassword". Are these valid?

Here's what I have:

ActiveMQConnectionFactory connectionFactory = new
ActiveMQConnectionFactory(
"tcp://localhost:61616");
connection = connectionFactory.createConnection();
session = connection.createSession(false, Session.AUTO_ACKNOWLEDGE);
...

I saw in another thread Scott recognizing the need for more documentation
and wanting to know what might be needed. Well, I could use a little
HowTo wrt ECF and JMS.

Also,

I see that the current ECF ActiveMQ is based on v3.1. Is there any plan
to update to v5?

Thanks in advance.

Yes...at least as of version 3.1 of ActiveMQ. I'm not sure about more
recent versions.

The first thing to add is a started activemq broker. That is, somehow
you need to have a running activemq broker...at the given port
(61616...which is the default for at least the older versions of activemq).

Here's a web page on running activemq as a separate java process:

http://activemq.apache.org/run-broker.html

I understand it's also easily run inside WebSphere Community Edition,
although I'm not sure if that's still the case.

Once the broker is started and listening, you need to start an ECF
Generic server, and have the generic server connect to the broker.
There's an ECF ActiveMQ server application called
org.eclipse.ecf.provider.jms.ActiveMQServer that does this.

I've also just put a launch configuration into the
org.eclipse.ecf.provider.jms.activemq project/bundle...and made it a
little bit simpler, so you should get the latest of this project from
ecf1.osuosl.org.

Once you've got the broker running, and the ECF generic activemq server
running and connected to the broker, then you should be able run/start
the clients, connect to the ECF generic activemq server, etc.

I would like to do this right away, but I can't currently tackle it
myself. I would suggest opening an enhancement request at
http://bugs.eclipse.org, however, and perhaps we can get multiple
contributors...and I will help, of course. If activemq has been pretty
good about remaining backward compatible it might not be difficult at all.

Thanks,

Scott
