JBoss/JMS Connection Factory

The ConnectionFactory is responsible for constructing connections.

It is an entirely client side object that is constructed with an "Implementation" delegate.

It implements

• javax.jms.ConnectionFactory

• javax.jms.XAConnectionFactory

• javax.jms.QueueConnectionFactory

• javax.jms.XAQueueConnectionFactory

• javax.jms.TopicConnectionFactory

• javax.jms.XATopicConnectionFactory

JBoss/JMS Implementation

The implementation object does the implementation specific work of constructing connections.

It is at this level that alternate configuration/implementation is initially determined.
