How to configure HornetQ for REST

[gkhrapunovich]

I have installed HornetQ (2.2.14) standalone on Windows 2008 Server. Now I would like to talk to it from C# using REST.  The manual (http://docs.jboss.org/hornetq/2.2.2.Final/rest-interface-manual/html/ch02.html#d0e69) describes what I need to change in configuration xml files, but it doesn't explain where those files are. It refers to REST example but there is no such example in 2.2.14 distribution. I made the search for <web-app> tag and could not find anything that looks appropriate.

Can you please help. Which xml file do I need to change to enable REST? Or is it already enabled in 2.2.14?

Is there an example for REST interface?

Thank you.

Hi,

The rest examples itself are part of the 2.2.2 release only.

I am also using 2.2.14 (deployed within JBoss EAP 5.1.2); if you are interested I could send you my HornetQRestBridge.war file containing:

WEB-INF/

├── classes

│   └── config.xml

├── lib

│   ├── hornetq-rest-2.2.14.Final.jar

└── web.xml

Robin, thank you. I am approaching HornetQ from .Net/C# side which is completely different environment. With time I realized that in order to use REST I need to install an Apache Tomcat in addition to IIS that I am presently using. Altogether it looks like too much trouble. I am presently planning to use STOMP instead. It appears to do all the same things, but does not require http server.

Unfortunately the whole project was pushed back, I just created a simple prototype using STOMP.
