    Does JBoss Messaging need JBoss App Server to work

    shivi911

      I just downloaded JBoss Messaging and am trying to run the QueueExample.java example. I am able to compile them via Eclipse -- just jboss-messaging-client.jar was in my classpath.

      I don't have JBoss Application Server (our application here needs just messaging, not ejbs) and I intend to consume messages via Listeners instead of mdbs. Does JBoss Messaging require that an app server be up and running?

      When I run the QueueExample, I get the following exception. How do I resolve it.

      javax.naming.NoInitialContextException: Need to specify class name in environment or system property, or as an applet parameter, or in an application resource file: java.naming.factory.initial
