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. ### Timeline - 2007: ActiveMQ-CPP 1.0 tag created. - 2007: CMS API 1.0 tag created. - 2009: ActiveMQ-CPP 3.0 tag created. - 2013: ActiveMQ-CPP 3.7.0 tag created. - 2019: ActiveMQ-CPP 3.9.5 release tag created. - 2025: Apache CMS download page lists 3.9.5 as the current stable release. ### Related projects - The Apache CMS pages relate ActiveMQ-CPP to Apache ActiveMQ, the CMS API, OpenWire, Stomp, APR, APR-Util, CppUnit, and OpenSSL. ### Sources - Official Apache ActiveMQ-CPP source README for build, test, platform, and dependency history. - Official Apache CMS component, documentation, and download pages for project purpose and release line. - Official Apache GitHub tag metadata for release tag dates. ## Security Notes narrow executable package without higher-risk signals. - **Geiger risk:** green / low - narrow executable package without higher-risk signals ## Source Database Details - **Source Database:** Homebrew formula API - **Tap:** homebrew/core - **Full Name:** activemq-cpp - **Version Scheme:** 0 - **Revision:** 2 - **Bottle Stable Root URL:** - **Deprecated:** no - **Disabled:** no - **Keg Only:** no - **URL Keys:** stable ## Other Package-Manager Records - dnf - activemq-cpp - 3.9.5-6.fc44: normalized package name match | Fedora Rawhide package metadata: activemq-cpp from https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/development/rawhide/Everything/x86_64/os/repodata/e5ca8ce900cd68f5419e1c39ae517343100b306336cbaeb70a3c153121d95094-primary.xml.zst | C++ implementation of JMS-like messaging client | http://activemq.apache.org/cms/ - dnf - activemq-cpp-devel - 3.9.5-6.fc44: normalized package name match | Fedora Rawhide package metadata: activemq-cpp-devel from https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/development/rawhide/Everything/x86_64/os/repodata/e5ca8ce900cd68f5419e1c39ae517343100b306336cbaeb70a3c153121d95094-primary.xml.zst | C++ implementation header files for JMS-like messaging | http://activemq.apache.org/cms/ ## Related links - [Terminal utility packages](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/terminal-utilities/) - Matched terminal and command-line workflow metadata. - [Text processing packages](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/text-processing-tools/) - Matched text, document, or structured-data processing metadata. - [Developer build packages](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/developer-build-tools/) - Matched build, compiler, generator, or developer workflow metadata. - [Networking and protocol packages](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/networking-protocol-tools/) - Matched network, protocol, or remote-service metadata. - [apr](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/apr/) - Runtime dependency declared by Homebrew. - [openssl@3](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/openssl-3/) - Runtime dependency declared by Homebrew. - [pkgconf](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/pkgconf/) - Build dependency declared by Homebrew. - [ada-url](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/ada-url/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, cpp, developer-tools, libraries. - [cgal](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/cgal/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, cpp, developer-tools, libraries. - [curlpp](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/curlpp/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, cpp, developer-tools, libraries. - [etl](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/etl/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, cpp, developer-tools, libraries. - [imessage-ruby](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/imessage-ruby/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, messaging. - [nng](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/nng/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, messaging. - [riemann-client](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/riemann-client/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, client-library, developer-tools, libraries. - [ucommon](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/ucommon/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, cpp, developer-tools, libraries. - [rabbitmq-c](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/rabbitmq-c/) - Local metadata places this package in an adjacent workflow.
