[openamq-dev] Named & Persistent Queue Status

[Matthew Alton]

Hello OpenAMQ people,

  I am returning to my research into AMQP after a long hiatus.  First
off, congratulations on all of the progress you've made since last we
spoke.  I have OpenAMQ up on several boxes running Ubuntu Linux and
SPARC Solaris 10.  It works very well.

  I have a question for you about current and planned features in
OpenAMQ.  My research has turned up conflicting information on whether
classical persistent queues are being implemented.  These would be MQ
Series-style named queues that are stored by the (presumed reliable)
broker.  The Features page on openamq.org says they're coming soon.
Threads in the mailing archives, however, indicate otherwise.  The
prevailing guidance seems to be that queue persistence comparable to
that provided by MQ Series can be achieved with OpenAMQ by some means.
 I would be happy to use the native OpenAMQ methods, but I can't seem
to find out what they are.

  Also, I have access to FreeBSD/SPARC64, AIX and HP-UX machines with
C compilers.  Would it be helpful if I were to try to build OpenAMQ on
these machines?

  Thanks.
