ActiveMQ Plugin
grails-activemq is a plugin to embedded in a Grails application ActiveMQ for messaging. This release is very simple, in futures releases we provide mayor support for ActiveMQ advanced configuration.
This plugin can be used in conjuntion with jms plugin to develop MDP (Message Driven Pogos).
This plugin at the moment is not production ready. Use at your risk for rapid prototyping with JMS without installing anymore.
