Installing HornetQ 2.1.2 Final on JBoss AS 5.1.0.GA

This page describes the steps required to install HornetQ 2.1.2(final) on JBoss AS 5.1.0.GA. This was done by simply taking the source code of the 'hornetq-int' module from JBossAS trunk and adding that module to a checked out version of JBoss_5_1_0_GA. A diff has been attached to this page.
