Destination Administration

The Novell exteNd Messaging Platform's JMS provides support for managing destinations via the JMQDestinationAdmin interface that is available from the JMQConnection objects. A connection object created by JMS can be cast to either JMQTopicConnection or JMQQueueConnection and the administration object can be retrieved with the getDestinationAdmin method.

The sample programs for this section shows how to use the JMQDestinationAdmin class to create and destroy Queue and Topics. Note that if the JMS server's security is enabled (msgsvc.security.enable property is set to true in the msgsvc.properties file), then a proper username and password for an administrator is required to get the JMQDestinationAdmin object.

Destination Administration

It is also possible to manage destinations either using the jmqutil command line utility or the JMS console. You can alternatively dump the entire destination and security state of a JMS server into an XML file using the jmqconfig utility program.
