Parent Project:

Eclipse Enterprise for Java

Background:

This project is created as part of the process of transitioning Oracle Java EE 8 and GlassFish technologies to the Eclipse Foundation as described in The Eclipse Enterprise for Java Project Top Level Project Charter (https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/ee4j/charter).

Scope:

Eclipse Proeject for JMS provides the API and TCK for Java™ Message Service (JMS) API, starting from the specification defined by JSR-343.

An implementation for JMS is part of the Eclipse OpenMQ proposal.

Description:

JSR- 343: The Java Message Service (JMS) API is a Java Message Oriented Middleware API for sending messages between two or more clients. It is a programming model to handle the producer-consumer messaging problem.

Why Here?:

The top level EE4J project was created consistent with the direction described in The Eclipse Enterprise for Java Project Top Level Project Charter (https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/ee4j/charter). This project is created under the top level EE4J project as one of Oracle Java EE 8 and GlassFish technologies being transitioned to the Eclipse Foundation.
