JMS Bridge Destination

For each source/target JMS destination to be mapped, whether it is a WebLogic JMS implementation or a 3rd-party JMS provider, you must configure a JMS Bridge Destination instance.

Creating a JMS Bridge Destination

1. Click to expand the Messaging Bridge node.

2. Click the JMS Bridge Destinations node to open the JMS Bridge Destinations tab in the right pane.

3. In the right pane, click the Configure a New JMS Bridge Destination link. A Configuration dialog displays in the right pane showing the tabs associated with configuring a new JMS bridge destination.

4. On the Configuration tab, enter values in the Name, Adapter JNDI Name, Adapter Class Path, Connection URL, Initial Context Factory, Connection Factory JNDI Name, Destination JNDI Name, and Destination Type attribute fields. For more information about these general attributes, see Configuration.

5. Optionally, fill out the User Name and User Password attributes. For more information about these attributes, see Configuration.

   Note: All operations done to the specified destination are done using that user name and password. Therefore, the User Name/Password for the source and target destinations must have permission to access the underlying destinations in order for the messaging bridge to work.

6. Click Create to create an instance the bridge destination with the name you specified in the Name field. The new instance is added under the JMS Bridge Destination node in the left pane.

7. When you finish defining attributes for a source JMS bridge destination, repeat these steps to configure a target JMS bridge destination, or vice versa.

For what's next in configuring a messaging bridge, see Messaging Bridge.

Cloning a JMS Bridge Destination

1. Click to expand the Messaging Bridge node.

2. Click to expand the JMS Bridge Destinations node. The JMS Bridge Destinations table displays in the right pane showing all the JMS bridge destination instances.

3. Click the Clone icon in the row of the JMS bridge destination instance you want to clone. A dialog displays in the right pane showing the tabs associated with cloning a JMS bridge destination.

4. Enter values in the attribute fields.

5. Click Clone to create a JMS bridge destination with the name you specified in the Name field. The JMS bridge destination is added to the JMS Bridge Destination table in the right pane.

Deleting a JMS Bridge Destination

1. Click to expand the Messaging Bridge node.

2. Click to expand the JMS Bridge Destinations node. The JMS Bridge Destinations table displays in the right pane showing all the JMS bridge destination instances.

3. Click the Delete icon in the row of the JMS bridge destination that you want to delete. A dialog displays in the right pane prompting you to confirm your deletion request.

4. Click Yes to delete the JMS bridge destination, and then click Continue to redisplay the JMS Bridge Destinations table in the right pane. The bridge destination is deleted from the JMS Bridge Destinations table.

Adding a Note to a JMS Bridge Destination

1. In the left pane, click the Bridges node to expand it.

2. Click the JMS Bridge Destinations node to expand it and show the list of JMS bridge destinations defined in your domain.

3. Click the JMS bridge destination that you want to add a note to. A dialog displays in the right pane showing the tabs associated with the JMS bridge destination instance.

4. Click the Notes tab. Type a note in the Notes field.

5. Click Apply to save your changes.

Configuration

Configuration

Attribute | Description | Range of Values | Default Value
--- | --- | --- | ---
Name | A bridge destination name that is unique across a WebLogic Server domain. This attribute is not dynamically configurable. | Java identifier, unique within specific domain. | MyJMS Bridge Destination [-n]
Adapter JNDI Name | The JNDI name of the adapter. This is the string defined in the adapter's descriptor file, and is used to bind the adapter in WebLogic Server JNDI. A bridge destination must supply the JNDI name of the adapter used to communicate with the specified destination. This attribute is not dynamically configurable. | Java identifier, unique within JNDI namespace. | eis.jms.WLS Connection FactoryJNDIXA
Adapter Classpath | The CLASSPATH of the bridge destination, which is mainly used to connect to a different release of WebLogic JMS. When connecting to a destination that is running on WebLogic Server 6.0 or earlier, the bridge destination must supply a CLASSPATH that indicates the locations of the classes for the earlier WebLogic Server implementation. This attribute is not dynamically configurable. | The value must be an alphanumeric string. | Null
Connection URL | The URL of the JNDI provider used to look up the connection factory and destination. This attribute is not dynamically configurable. | The value must be an alphanumeric string. | Null
Initial Context Factory | The factory used to get the JNDI context. This attribute is not dynamically configurable. | The value must be an alphanumeric string. | weblogic.jndi.WLInitial Context Factory
Connection Factory JNDI Name | The JMS connection factory used to create a connection. Note: In order to use the Exactly-once QOS, the connection factory has to be a XAConnection Factory. This attribute is not dynamically configurable. | Java identifier, unique within JNDI namespace. | Null
Destination JNDI Name | The JNDI name of the JMS destination. This attribute is not dynamically configurable. | Java identifier, unique within JNDI namespace. | Null
Destination Type | Either a Queue or Topic. This attribute is not dynamically configurable. | Queue or Topic | Queue
User Name | The optional user name that the messaging bridge will give to the bridge adapter. Note: All operations done to the specified destination are done using the User Name and User Password. Therefore, the User Name/Password for the source and target bridge destinations must have permission to access the underlying source and target destinations in order for the messaging bridge to work. This attribute is not dynamically configurable. | The value must be an alphanumeric string. | Null
User Password | The password that the messaging bridge will give to the bridge adapter. This attribute is not dynamically configurable. | The value must be an alphanumeric string. | Null
