[jboss-user] [ANN] HJB (HTTP JMS Bridge) 0.9.1 released

[Tim Emiola]

HJB <http://hjb.berlios.de>, the HTTP JMS Bridge, provides a REST
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/REST> version of the JMS
<http://java.sun.com/products/jms> API.

This REST API allows programs in languages other than Java to access
**ANY** messaging systems that provide a JMS interface.  E.g, PyHJB
<http://hjb.python-hosting.com>, the python client for HJB includes a
demo using python to access JBoss Messaging, in addition to 3 other
JMS systems.

HJB 0.9.0 was released last week, but HJB 0.9.1 has been released very
quickly afterwards to fix an important bug.

The important features in these 0.9.x releases are:

**  0.9.1 **

* fixed an error that prevented recursive listing from working

* added the ability to configure HJB's runtime system parameters from
the java servlet config XML file

* added the /collect command (Collect From) for consumers and
subscribers.  This allows clients to collect several messages from HJB
in one HTTP request

* changed the output of the /list commands so that it looks more like
the output of 'ls -lR' when recursively listing

** 0.9.0 **

* started recording the creation time of the JMS objects created by
HJB for use in listing reports

* added the ability to list JMS sessions, connections, connection
factories and providers

* JMS connection errors are written to a unique log file per JMS connection

* added an /errors command for JMS connections to allow clients to
retrieve the JMS connection error logs

* the large HJBConnection class has been refactored, all session
handling has been moved to a new class HJBSession

* major changes are recorded in a changelog which can be accessed
online via the svn repository here:
