Add Connection Factory Object

Use this dialog to configure a connection factory object and to add it to an object store.

Connection factories are administered objects used by JMS clients to connect to the broker. This object is also used to specify how the connection behaves and how the client runtime using it accesses the broker.

Lookup Name Use this field to specify the JNDI lookup name of the connection factory object.

Factory Type Choose the menu item that specifies which type of connections the factory produces: ConnectionFactory, QueueConnectionFactory, or TopicConnectionFactory. If the message must be part of a distributed transaction, choose XAConnectionFactory, XAQueueConnectionFactory or XATopicConnectionFactory.

Read-Only Click this check box to make the factory connection object read-only. If the object is read only, client applications will not be able to modify connection factory attributes through api calls.

By configuring a connection factory object, you specify the properties common to all the connections that the factory produces. You use the tabs shown in the dialog to configure the connection factory. Click one of the following links for information about a particular tab.
