Thanks Tim! Is ActiveMQ just not being maintained anymore? Or it is just the C++ client that has been abandoned? Just not enough demand on the C++ end?

Unit and > Integration tests disabled In the past it was observed that newer versions of cppunit don't ship with a cppunit-config script or if one is present it no longer works with the autoconf tooling in ActiveMQ-CPP which is now unmaintained for quite some time. It's quite likely you'd need to modify the autoconf scripts to figure out where cppunit is installed on a modern linux distro with a newer CPPUnit library that probably uses more current pkg config data. > > I have nary-a-clue when it comes to makefiles (and related).
