Recently I was called on to develop a Message-Driven Bean (MDB) that was to be deployed under Oracle Weblogic 10.3. Easy enough, right? The only problem was that the queue it was supposed to listen to was on a remote Unix machine, and was defined under IBM MQ Server 6.0. There are several how-to's on the internet about how this can be done, but none of them were complete enough to get it working. My goal in this article is to tie together all of the threads needed to get Weblogic 10.3 and MQ chatting away happily.
