How do I create an object store on JMQ 2.0?

Question

I have a question about creating an object store in JMQ 2.0 using the
administration tool.
The documentation doesn't explain it that clearly because it says for
development purposes, you should be able to get away with the default
configuration. The default configuration as far as I can see has no object
store for JNDI lookup.
What I need is an object store that I can connect with using an
InitialContextFactory to the broker URL. I'd like to then use that
Connection to lookup ConnectionFactories (topic and queue).
Again, I thought the documentation would explain all of this, but haven't
been able to find anything. Please advise.

To answer your question, you can use the 'jmqadmin'
(graphical interface) or 'jmqobjmgr' (command line interface)
to configure administered objects that you store in a
JNDI service provider. This object store has to be set up
in advance which may mean creating a directory if a file store
is used, or setting up an LDAP server.
Here as the basic steps to add administered objects
if you're using the graphical implementation ('jmqadmin'):
1. Set up some sort of object store repository outside the admin
tool (you can use LDAP or create a file system directory).
2. Add an Object Store connection to the repository you
just set up:
- Run 'jmqadmin', click on the tree node "JMQ Object Stores".
- Select Actions->Add Object Store.
- Name this Object Store with a value in "Object Store Label".
- Fill in the values for java.naming.factory.initial
and java.naming.provider.url and any other necessary JNDI values.
- Select OK
3. To add objects to this object store you just set up:
- First make a connection to this store:
Select Actions->Connect to Object Store
- Click on the "Destinations" or "Connection Factories" node
under this object store.
- Click on Actions->Add Destination Object or Add Connection Factory Object
and fill in the values in the dialog.
