So maybe the activemq-openwire project should just be deprecated and go away since it is not used or maintained.
It has been several years now but I'm pretty sure I just used the activemq-openwire-generator 5.x module (as Tim mentioned) to generate the latest v12 Openwire version that is in use today. https://github.com/apache/activemq/commit/3953b9aaefaee914bdd0702f27aef47c021ceb27 On Tue, Aug 22, 2023 at 5:49 PM Arthur Naseef <a...@amlinv.com> wrote: > Thank you Tim.
