history

Project history and usage

ActiveMQ-CPP is Apache ActiveMQ's C++ client library implementing the CMS API, a JMS-like interface for C++ applications talking to message brokers such as Apache ActiveMQ.

Project history

Apache documents CMS as a C++ Messaging Service API and identifies ActiveMQ-CPP as its implementation. The library supports OpenWire and Stomp over TCP and SSL, failover transport, and auxiliary portable classes for threading, I/O, sockets, and synchronization.

Adoption history

The official download list shows a long 1.x, 2.x, and 3.x release line from ActiveMQ-CPP 1.0 through 3.9.5, plus CMS API releases. Homebrew and distribution package records reflect its role as a packaged native client library for C++ messaging applications.

How it is used

Developers link the library into C++ clients that need to connect to a message broker. The source README documents Unix builds with autogen.sh, ./configure, make, make install, Doxygen generation, unit tests, integration tests against a broker, and MSVC support on Windows.

Why package nerds care

ActiveMQ-CPP is packaging-relevant because it is a native C++ dependency with APR, APR-Util, OpenSSL, CppUnit, autotools, generated docs, test binaries, and platform-specific build notes, the kind of library where package recipes encode real build-system knowledge.
