AMQ5 integration: was Re: Camel extension of ActiveMQ

[David Jencks <da...@yahoo.com>]

Hi John,

Sorry for the delay in responding.  A couple of procedural things that  
hopefully won't be too onerous and would make life easier for the  
project would be to file an ICLA and sign up with JIRA.

http://www.apache.org/licenses/icla.txt

We should move this discussion to the dev list only.

I've created https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-4337 to  
help track this work and copied plugins/activemq to plugins/activemq5  
so you'll have a place to work without interfering with the working  
amq 4 integration.  Right now plugins/activemq5 is not hooked up to  
the main build and would need to be built independently.

Here are some steps I foresee:

     *  create an activemq5 work area under plugins (done)
     * change the artifactIds in the new projects to not conflict with  
the old ones (will try to do in the next few minutes)
     * move the specification of amq version from the root pom  
dependency management to the activemq and activemq5 plugins. (will try  
to do in next few minutes)
     * keep only the broker gbean
     * use an activemq configuration file in var/activemq, referenced  
by the broker gbean
     * update dependencies to latest activemq
     * figure out how much of the current jms portlet functionality  
can be reasonably kept. From discussions with Hiram I think that  
trying to reconfigure the broker while its running is a very bad idea  
and we should just drop the parts of the console that try to do this.
     * investigate how to run the amq console in geronimo, preferably  
as portlets inside the g. admin console.

Looking forward to working with you on this!
