Rafi, Below is the link for a proposal that you helped me put together. http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/qpid/Proposal+for+a+new+JMS+Destination+configuration2
I think it captures most of the concepts you have talked about in this thread. Perhaps we could use that as a basis for a proposal to be used across all languages. regards, Rajith On Mon, Sep 14, 2009 at 10:38 AM, Rafael Schloming <rafa...@redhat.com> wrote: > Jonathan Robie wrote: >> >> Rafael Schloming wrote: >>> >>> There really are two separate configuration topics here: configuration of >>> the client (which is reasonable to do via JNDI) and configuration of the >>> broker (which nobody in their right mind would ever consider doing via >>> JNDI).
