jms:create and configure WebsphereMQ with SSL

[Oliver Wulff]

Hi there

I could successfully create a QueueConnectionFactory with jms:create and could 
successfully connect to the Websphere MQ server running remotely. The 
jms:create creates the following blueprint:


    <bean id="wmqConnectionFactory" 
class="com.ibm.mq.jms.MQQueueConnectionFactory">
        <property name="transportType" value="1" />
        <property name="hostName" value="localhost" />
        <property name="port" value="19420" />
        <property name="queueManager" value="AAQ1DM4" />
        <property name="channel" value="AAQ1DM4.CLIENT.WAS1" />
    </bean>


I'm trying now to connect securely to Websphere MQ broker but I'm struggeling 
because the class com.ibm.mq.jms.MQQueueConnectionFactory provides the option 
to set an SSLSocketFactory only.

Initially I started creating an SSLSocketFactory with Blueprint bean definition 
but it's hacky, IMHO.


I like to define this kind of configurations outside of the camel routes I 
deploy into Karaf but need your advise what the best approach might be. Maybe 
we can extend the jms commands to support SSL as well - also for ActiveMQ.


Thanks
