Qpid provides a library which implements the JMS API, and uses the AMQP protocol on the wire to communicate with the broker. It is possible to get at the AMQP specific methods by casting your Session to an AMQPSession (for instance), but we don't reccomend that people do this. Let me know if you have any other questions. - Aidan -- aim/y!:aidans42 g:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://aidan.skinner.me.uk/ "We belong to nobody and nobody belongs to us.
