What is the right Maven dependency for javax.jms.* classes?

Question

I need to import javax.jms.* classes. What is the right dependency to include into a Maven project? I\'m trying javax.jms:jms:1.1, but no luck (it\

Answer 1

   <dependency>
      <groupId>javax</groupId>
      <artifactId>javaee-api</artifactId>
      <version>6.0</version>
      <scope>provided</scope>
    </dependency>

Answer 2

In ActiveMQ as well as some other projects like Qpid JMS we pull in the JMS spec classes from Apache Geronimo JARs, the 1.1 APIs are available in this dependency:

  <dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.geronimo.specs</groupId>
    <artifactId>geronimo-jms_1.1_spec</artifactId>
    <version>1.1.1</version>
  </dependency>

For JMS 2 APIs you'd need to use a different dependency, for instance

  <dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.geronimo.specs</groupId>
    <artifactId>geronimo-jms_2.0_spec</artifactId>
    <version>1.0-alpha-2</version>
  </dependency>

These are both Apache 2.0 licensed dependencies.

Answer 3

This worked for myself

    <dependency>
        <groupId>javax.jms</groupId>
        <artifactId>javax.jms-api</artifactId>
        <version>2.0.1</version>
    </dependency>

Answer 4

If you just want the JMS libs, without the rest of javaee, use the following:

https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/javax.jms/javax.jms-api/2.0.1

<dependency>
    <groupId>javax.jms</groupId>
    <artifactId>javax.jms-api</artifactId>
    <version>2.0.1</version>
</dependency>

Answer 5

Go to Maven Search site and search for javax. Open the latest version for groupId javax and artifactId javaee-api

The current version is 7.0 [Maven dependency information]

Answer 6

According to mvnrepository, the dependency to add in the pom of your project is the following:

<dependency>
  <groupId>jms</groupId>
  <artifactId>jms</artifactId>
  <version>1.1</version>
</dependency>
