h1. Features

The Petals JMS component can be used to interact with an external JMS application or server (through a queue or a topic).
When used with the provider role, it allows to post TextMessages to a JMS queue or topic.
When used with the consumer role, it allows to read messages from a queue or receive messages posted on a given topic.

h1. Recommended Usage

This component should be used whenever interactions with a JMS server or application is required.
This component needs a driver (also called a shared library in Petals) so that Petals can interact with the JMS application. This shared library generally contains the JNDI classes, as a JNDI is used to enable communications between both servers.

\\
{note}* Only JMS TextMessage are recognized by the Petals JMS component.
* With the version 3.0, only XML messages can be published and received from a JMS application.
* In Petals, the invoked service operation is mapped to the _operation_ property of the JMS _TextMessage_ (both in consumming and providing mode).
{note}

h1. Sending a message to a JMS Queue

This use case is similar to [publishing a message on a JMS topic|#Publishing-a-message-to-a-JMS-Topic].

h1. Publishing a message to a JMS Topic

{center}!petals-bc-jms_provide_service.png|width=600px!{center}

h2. Usage

To do that with Petals, you have to create a service associated with the Petals JMS component.
This is achieved by creating a service unit whose jbi.xml contains a *provides* section. When deployed in Petals, the Petals JMS component will emulate a service. When this service is invoked, the received message will be posted as a _TextMessage_ on the topic defined in the service unit configuration.

{note}* All the MEP are allowed. However, due to the JMS paradigm, all exchanges are processed like *InOnly* exchanges. For exemple, an InOut exchange returns a default message if the JMS message is sent succesfully.
* The external Queue or Topic referenced by the Service Unit does not have to be available before the Service Unit is started. But the JNDI server where Queue or Topic are registered must be available before the Service Unit deployment.
* Properties from the Petals message are automatically converted to JMS message properties.

h2. Usage

The Petals JMS component can listen to an external JMS Queue or JMS Topic.
When it receives a message, it creates a Petals message and sends to a Petals service (we say that the component consumes the JBI service). This service is specified in the Service Unit.
