Ok, so I appreciate the time of anyone who bears with me on this. I've been reading through as many of the documents as I can find on activemq and I'm still scratching my head a little bit on a number of items.
I'm looking at activemq as a standalone, "clusterable" jms "server" to handle messaging between several servers. Sadly I'm having a hard time piecing together configuration information, specifically what exactly I need to do to get this up and running and configured. I see that there is an example activemq configuration file however, it doesn't strike me as being teribly clear and there doesn't seem to be a reference for the various tags and elements listed in the configuration file. Could anyone point me to a steps 1, 2, and 3 kind of example for getting activemq up and running and configured? (it's very possible that I've missed that in my perusal of the documents thus far). Furthermore, I'm still a bit confused on the use of activemq and jndi, the application I'm working on is a pojo application and we're actually looking to get rid of our container altogether (weblogic currently) as we were just using it for jms. I'm not sure I really follow what needs to happen to use jndi to lookup an activemq connection factory (I saw the section on spring but that doesn't really clarify it for me). And lastly (lord I know, its a lot of questions), it's very possible that my understanding of spring is not what it should be (although we are going to try using it, just haven't gotten that far yet), but this quote from the documentation confused me a bit "We support full message driven pojo support in Spring by using Jencks. This provides all the power of MDBs - efficient JMS consumption and pooling of the message listeners - but without requiring a full EJB container." I'm not really clear on why jencks would be required to support pojo messaging - again, perhaps I'm misunderstanding activemq here, but I was under the impression that activemq could run as a standalone jms provider and the fact that one was using spring or something else would be irrelevant, can anyone help me further understand this? Thanks much, and again, I do really appreciate any insight on this, quite obviously, simple questions. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Some-very-noob-questions-on-running-and-configuring-tf2078564.html#a5725182 Sent from the ActiveMQ - User forum at Nabble.com.
