Hi Matt

I eventually got to fixing the sample. There are two bundle projects [1][2]=
.

The first (jms-osgi) exposes the bundle using and SCA composite with
implementation.osgi as the component implementation type. The service
of this particular component is exposed over binding.jms

The second bundle (jms-osgi-client) is a non-SCA bundle that just
pushes a message into a JMS queue at activation.

This sample is the simplest I could have made it but not necessarily
the best approach. For example. it depends on Tuscany default
binding.jms behaviour which is unlikely to be what you want and the
client just does native JMS stuff which again I would really replace
with an SCA reference. But difficult to know precisely what you need.
So take a look.

Re. other binding.jms example and configurations. Take a look at out
JMS related tests [3].

/
[2] http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tuscany/sandbox/slaws/jms-osgi/jms-osgi=
-client/
[3] http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tuscany/sca-java-2.x/trunk/testing/ites=
t/jms/

Hope that helps
