qpid-server

Overview

This script starts the Qpid Java Broker on Linux/Solaris/Cygwin platforms.

It is extremely simple, delegating the real work to the qpid-run script.

In fact, all it really provides is the main class to execute and passes through any command line arguments to qpid-run i.e.

. qpid-run org.apache.qpid.server.Main "$@"

qpid-server.bat

Overview

This script starts the Qpid Java Broker on Windows platforms. It provides a limited version of the qpid-run functionality, though is not nearly as sophisticated i.e. does not support run arguments or the full set of argument variables.

However, it does support the following features:

• validates that JAVA_HOME is set
• validates that QPID_HOME is set
• passes any command line arguments to the main broker class
• supports the use of QPID_OPTS to pass through java system properties

Note that a JIRA exists for enhancing the features this script supports http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-168

qpid-run

Overview

The qpid-run script allows the calling program to run any given command, and provides a flexible surround supporting configurable runtime arguments for the script itself, the broker and java arguments.
