NB: The commented out section referencing BDBMessageStore should be used for all applications wishing to use persistence to disk. </p> + +<p>If you are using transient messaging you can use the MemoryMessageStore, with the caveat that scalability for transient use is limited by heap size.</p> + +<p>In our example config.xml, we define three virtual hosts which we commonly use for development (development), system testing (test) and integration testing (localhost). In the config.xml the per virtual host sections define both the Message Store in use (MemoryMessageStore for non-persistent applications or BDBMessageStore for persistent application usage) and the security for each virtual host. The security settings are under currently development so subject to changes.</p> + +<p>The default virtual host for connections which do not specify a host on the url is 'test' in the example config.xml.</p> + +<div class="preformatted"><div class="preformattedContent"> +<pre><virtualhost>

However, best advice is to leave unchanged for now.</p> + +<div class="preformatted"><div class="preformattedContent"> +<pre><queue>
