3 Oracle Streams Advanced Queuing: Programmatic Interfaces

This chapter describes the different language options and elements you must work with and issues to consider in preparing your Oracle Streams Advanced Queuing (AQ) application environment.

Note:

Java package oracle.AQ was deprecated in 10g Release 1 (10.1). Oracle recommends that you migrate existing Java AQ applications to Oracle JMS (or other Java APIs) and use Oracle JMS (or other Java APIs) to design your future Java AQ applications.

This chapter contains these topics:

Programmatic Interfaces for Accessing Oracle Streams Advanced Queuing

Table 3-1 lists Oracle Streams Advanced Queuing programmatic interfaces, functions supported in each interface, and syntax references.

Using PL/SQL to Access Oracle Streams Advanced Queuing

The PL/SQL packages DBMS_AQADM and DBMS_AQ support access to Oracle Streams Advanced Queuing administrative and operational functions using the native Oracle Streams Advanced Queuing interface. These functions include:

Available PL/SQL DBMS_AQADM and DBMS_AQ functions are listed in detail in Table 3-2 through Table 3-9.

Using OCI to Access Oracle Streams Advanced Queuing

OCI provides an interface to Oracle Streams Advanced Queuing functions using the native Oracle Streams Advanced Queuing interface.

An OCI client can perform the following actions:

In addition, OCI clients can receive asynchronous notifications for new messages in a queue using OCISubscriptionRegister.

See Also:

"OCI and Advanced Queuing" and "Publish-Subscribe Notification" in Oracle Call Interface Programmer's Guide for syntax details

Oracle Type Translator

For queues with user-defined payload types, the Oracle type translator must be used to generate the OCI/OCCI mapping for the Oracle type. The OCI client is responsible for freeing the memory of the Oracle Streams Advanced Queuing descriptors and the message payload.

Using OCCI to Access Oracle Streams Advanced Queuing

C++ applications can use OCCI, which has a set of Oracle Streams Advanced Queuing interfaces that enable messaging clients to access Oracle Streams Advanced Queuing. OCCI AQ supports all the operational functions required to send/receive and publish/subscribe messages in a message-enabled database. Synchronous and asynchronous message consumption is available, based on a message selection rule.

See Also:

"Oracle Streams Advanced Queuing" in Oracle C++ Call Interface Programmer's Guide

Using Visual Basic (OO4O) to Access Oracle Streams Advanced Queuing

Visual Basic (OO4O) supports access to Oracle Streams Advanced Queuing operational functions using the native Oracle Streams Advanced Queuing interface.

These functions include the following:

Note:

Because the database handles message propagation, OO4O does not differentiate between remote and local recipients. The same sequence of calls/steps are required to dequeue a message for local and remote recipients.

Using Oracle Java Message Service (OJMS) to Access Oracle Streams Advanced Queuing

Java Message Service (JMS) is a messaging standard defined by Sun Microsystems, Oracle, IBM, and other vendors. JMS is a set of interfaces and associated semantics that define how a JMS client accesses the facilities of an enterprise messaging product.

Oracle Java Message Service (OJMS) provides a Java API for Oracle Streams Advanced Queuing based on the JMS standard. OJMS supports the standard JMS interfaces and has extensions to support administrative operations and other features that are not a part of the standard.

Standard JMS features include:

Oracle JMS extensions include:

Accessing Standard and Oracle JMS Applications

Standard JMS interfaces are in the javax.jms package. Oracle JMS interfaces are in the oracle.jms package. You must have EXECUTE privilege on the DBMS_AQIN and DBMS_AQJMS packages to use the Oracle JMS interfaces. You can also acquire these rights through the AQ_USER_ROLE or the AQ_ADMINSTRATOR_ROLE. You also need the appropriate system and queue or topic privileges to send or receive messages.

Because Oracle JMS uses Java Database Connectivity (JDBC) to connect to the database, its applications can run outside the database using the JDBC OCI driver or JDBC thin driver.

Using JDBC OCI Driver or JDBC Thin Driver

To use JMS with clients running outside the database, you must include the appropriate JDBC driver, Java Naming and Directory Interface (JNDI) jar files, and Oracle Streams Advanced Queuing jar files in your CLASSPATH.

Note that the Oracle Database does not support JDK 1.2, JDK 1.3, JDK 1.4, and all classes12*.* files. You need to use the ojdbc5.jar and ojbc6.jar files with JDK 5.n and JDK 6.n, respectively. The following jar and zip files should be in the CLASSPATH based on the release of JDK you are using.

For JDK 1.5.x, the CLASSPATH must contain:

ORACLE_HOME/jdbc/lib/ojdbc5.jar

For JDK 1.6.x, the CLASSPATH must contain:

ORACLE_HOME/jdbc/lib/ojdbc6.jar 

The following files are used for either JDK version:

ORACLE_HOME/lib/jta.jar
ORACLE_HOME/xdk/lib/xmlparserv2.jar
ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/jlib/xdb.jar
ORACLE_HOME/jlib/aqapi.jar 
ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/jlib/jmscommon.jar

Using Oracle Server Driver in JServer

If your application is running inside the JServer, then you should be able to access the Oracle JMS classes that have been automatically loaded when the JServer was installed. If these classes are not available, then you must load jmscommon.jar followed by aqapi.jar using the $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/initjms SQL script.

Using Oracle Streams Advanced Queuing XML Servlet to Access Oracle Streams Advanced Queuing

You can use Oracle Streams Advanced Queuing XML servlet to access Oracle Streams Advanced Queuing over HTTP using Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) and an Oracle Streams Advanced Queuing XML message format called Internet Data Access Presentation (IDAP).

Using the Oracle Streams Advanced Queuing servlet, a client can perform the following actions:

"Deploying the Oracle Streams Advanced Queuing XML Servlet" for more information on the Oracle Streams Advanced Queuing XML servlet

Comparing Oracle Streams Advanced Queuing Programmatic Interfaces

Available functions for the Oracle Streams Advanced Queuing programmatic interfaces are listed by use case in Table 3-2 through Table 3-9. Use cases are described in Chapter 8 through Chapter 10 and Chapter 12 through Chapter 15.
