Appendix D. Using AMQ Broker with the examples
The AMQ .NET examples require a running message broker with a queue named amq.topic
. Use the procedures below to install and start the broker and define the queue.
D.1. Installing the broker
Follow the instructions in Getting Started with AMQ Broker to install the broker and create a broker instance. Enable anonymous access.
The following procedures refer to the location of the broker instance as <broker-instance-dir>
.
D.2. Starting the broker
Procedure
Use the
artemis run
command to start the broker.$ <broker-instance-dir>/bin/artemis run
Check the console output for any critical errors logged during startup. The broker logs
Server is now live

D.3. Creating a queue
In a new terminal, use the artemis queue
command to create a queue named amq.topic
.
$ <broker-instance-dir>/bin/artemis queue create --name amq.topic --address amq.topic --auto-create-address --anycast
You are prompted to answer a series of yes or no questions. Answer N
for no to all of them.
Once the queue is created, the broker is ready for use with the example programs.
D.4. Stopping the broker
When you are done running the examples, use the artemis stop
command to stop the broker.
$ <broker-instance-dir>/bin/artemis stop
