Configuring Java messaging client resources

To configure Java™ messaging client resources, you create new JMS provider configurations for your application client. The application client can use a messaging service through the Java Message Service APIs. A JMS provider provides two kinds of J2EE factories. One is a JMS connection factory, and the other is a JMS destination factory.

Before you begin

In a separate administrative task, install the Java Message Service (JMS) client on the client machine where the application client resides. The messaging product vendor must provide an implementation of the JMS client. For more information, see your messaging product documentation.

Attention: When completing this task, you can either create a new messaging provider, or you can use an existing one.

Procedure

  1. Start the Application Client Resource Configuration Tool (ACRCT).
  2. Open the EAR file for which you want to configure the new JMS provider.
    The EAR file contents are in the displayed tree view.
  3. Select the JAR file in which you want to configure the new JMS provider from the tree.
  4. Expand the JAR file to view its contents.
  5. Optionally right-click Messaging Providers and select New, if you want to create and use a new messaging provider.
  6. Configure the JMS provider properties in the resulting property dialog.
  7. Click OK.
  8. Click File > Save.
