Ok, so I am not totally misguided here. Do you know of any frameworks or examples exploring this workflow approach? bsnyder wrote: > > These are common dilemmas that developers face when developing in an > environment that contains both synchronous and asynchronous technologies. > My best recommendation is to take a look at the Enterprise Integration > Patterns (EIP) book: > > http://enterpriseintegrationpatterns.com/ > > This book provides an excellent collection of messaging-based patterns for > use when designing applications that make use of messaging/JMS.

Is is a required or optional part? Can you point me to a good set of examples, or a real life application, showing how to use Camel for this (workflow thing) and other requirements? Wait a minute... I have just realized you are one of the authors of the (upcoming) ActiveMQ in Action book. Delighted to meet you. I am not going to badger you with any questions, but please do feel free to share any information you have about its final availability... ;-) Thanks and best regards. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Mixing-JMS-and-web-apps-tp25088779p25095545.html Sent from the ActiveMQ - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
