9.2.7. Destinations

A destination is the object on the JBossMQ server that clients use to send and receive messages. There are two types of destination objects, Queues and Topics. References to the destinations created by JBossMQ are stored in JNDI.

9.2.7.1. Queues

Clients that are in the point-to-point paradigm typically use queues. They expect that message sent to a queue will be receive by only one other client once and only once. If multiple clients are receiving messages from a single queue, the messages will be load balanced across the receivers. Queue objects, by default, will be stored under the JNDI queue/ sub context.
