A component of J2EE or an independent messaging system?
Examines JMS and its place in the Java 2, Enterprise Edition platform.

The Java Message Service and XSLT for E-Business Messaging: Connecting applications in a diverse B2B environment
David A. Chappell, co-author of O'Reilly's JMS book, recently published this article that explains the synergy between JMS and XML for exchanging business data between two systems (B2B).  Mr. Chappell provides a real-world example that uses JMS to exchange data between CommerceOne's proprietary xCBL format and the RosettaNet purchase order (Rosetta_PO.xml) format.  It's an excellent article and is highly recommended.

The Java Message Service book
Richard Monson-Haefel's new book, the Java Message Service, is now available on Amazon.com!  The Java Message Service is published by O'Reilly & Associates (December 2000) and is written by Richard Monson-Haefel and David Chappell

The Java Message Service shows how to build applications using the point-to-point and publish-and-subscribe messaging models; how to use features like transactions and durable subscriptions to make an application reliable; and how to use messaging within Enterprise JavaBeans. It also introduces a new EJB type, the MessageDrivenBean, which is part of EJB 2.0, and discusses integration of messaging into J2EE. 

A Stunning Review on JDJ!
James McGovern of the Java Developer's Journal gave O'Reilly's Java Message Service book a great review awarding it 9.5 out of 10 stars!  What makes this review particularly convincing is that McGovern co-authored a competing book on JMS, Professional JMS (Wrox 2001), for another publisher. McGovern characterizes O'Reilly's Java Message Service as an "excellent book and an essential item for your library."  McGovern also compares the O'Reilly book to his own JMS book, saying "this is a really good book and, in many ways, better than the book I coauthored.", which is a testament to his character and the honesty of the review.
 
 

O'Reilly's Java Message Service book took home the "bronze" beating out thousands of Java books for 3rd place in the Java Developer's Journal's 2001 Reader's Choice Awards for Best Book of 2000!

The authors, Richard Monson-Haefel and David Chappell, are grateful for the recognition from readers and a bit surprised since the book wasn't published until December of 2000.  Thanks to the Java Developer's Journal for this honor and for producing the Reader's Choice Awards.
