[openjms-developer] OpenJMS support in 'C' or 'C++' / JMS filters

[Matthias Clausen]

Hi all,

we are currently setting up an OpenJMS message system on several nodes
of our control system.
Most of the nodes can run Java natively. Some of them will not provide a
JVM - so we'll have to talk to a OpenJMS message server from 'C' or
'C++' code. Is there any implementation for one of the network protocols
available? We are going to use topic lists and MAPed messages (if this
helps to identify what we are looking for)
In addition we are in the process of specifying JMS filters.
JMS-Server(a) -> JMS-Filter -> JMS-Server(b)
Is there anything available that would accomplish this?

Thanks for any help in advance.
Since I did not subscribe to the list at the moment - please send your
reply directly to me and not only to the mailing list - thanks

At the very least you need a JVM in order to communicate with
the server.

However, you could write a proxy server in java that accepts
commands/messages from the C++ client and maps those to the JMS API,
and vice-versa.

E.g:

C++ client <--socket--> Proxy Server <--JMS--> OpenJMS
(no JVM node) (jvm node)

As for filtering, there is no inbuilt support for this.
