Apache geronimo ships with ActiveMQ message broker and an inbound and outbound JMS resource adapter for the ActiveMQ broker. This sample illustrates deploying and running two MDBs that listen to a jms topic TextTopic. When the web client publishes a message to this topic, the two MDBs receive the message and process it. Because the message is published to the topic, all the configured listeners, in this case the two MDBs, receive a copy of the message. In addition to that, we will also illustrate how to deploy a JMS resource adapter within the application scope. Usually, the resource adapters are deployed at the server scope and can be used by all other applications as well. In this example, a JMS resource plan is embedded in the application deployment plan geronimo-application.xml and deployed while deploying the application archive.

The above pattern is the way how geronimo references various libraries available in the server repository. Any external libraries can also be uploaded to server repository using admin console portlet. After starting the server, click on Console Navigation => Services => Repository to display Repository Viewer portlet. In this portlet, users can upload required third party libraries by providing proper groupId, artifactId and version values for the libraries being uploaded. The activeMQ rar file is also available in the repository as org.apache.geronimo.modules/geronimo-activemq-ra/2.1/rar. Click on this link to get the usage instructions on how to reference this library in other modules.

The web client that look up the connection factory and topic and sends messages is as follows.
