[code] MQConnectionFactory connFactory = new MQConnectionFactory(); [/code]
 
 
and i get a null pointer that i can't seem to track down, i have attached the stack trace, any help would be greatly appreciated.

				What have you got on your classpath?
 
What JARs and from what version of MQ? |

If you are running this on a J2EE server, I'd drop the jms.jar and jta.jar...   _________________ MQ & Broker admin |

				Is this a Java EE environment of some type? You mentioned "bootstraping" this class - could you expand on that please.. not sure what exactly you mean.
 
 
Thanks. |

Which version of MQ are you running with which version of Jboss?
 
Check out the forums there are some problems.
 
V 6.0.2.9 of MQ should work. Are you using the resource adapter?

				| wait i think you misunderstood me, i am just connecting out to a MQ server using the MQ jars... the MQ server is hosted by a third party and i have no access to it, however i can connect to it using a standalone jar that i wrote...but i cant get past instantiating the MQConnectionFactory when i try to connect from within jboss.... |

Make sure Jboss is not trying to instanciate an "XA" Connection factory unless you are licenced for the "Extended Transactional Client".

				I think you may have found my silver bullet...
 
 
in deploy/jms/jms-ds.xml file it contains
 
 
<!-- The combined connection factory -->
 
    <attribute name="FactoryRef">java:/XAConnectionFactory</attribute>
 
    <!-- The queue connection factory -->
 
    <attribute name="QueueFactoryRef">java:/XAConnectionFactory</attribute>
 
    <!-- The topic factory -->
 
    <attribute name="TopicFactoryRef">java:/XAConnectionFactory</attribute>
 
 
so i guess that would be a yes... how would i go about correcting that?? |

What happens if you take the XA out of your attributes?   _________________ MQ & Broker admin |

				Quick note on the subject of accessing WMQ from within JBOSS.
 
 
The really supported way of using it is via the Resource Adapter.
 
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=171&uid=swg27009524
 
 
Please don't bundle the JARs either JMS and definitely not the WMQ Java classes in with your application. This won't be a supported configuration.
 
 
Remember as well that the Transactional Client requires a purchasable license - if you do need that XA functionality over a TCP/IP connection.
 
 
Sorry if this is well known stuff to you; but worth repeating I feel. |

				Taking XA out of the references didn't work.
 
 
I am not trying to use XA functionality, I am not sure that i am using a resource adapter because i am not defining or deploying and EJBs. 
 
 
Basically i am starting a thread within jboss that will build out the connection using the connection factory...
 
 
it seems to me, and i could be mistaken, that some jms property its causing the MQConnectionfactory to try to instantiate itself as an XA transaction factory which i don't have the license to do. 
 
 
that being said i am not sure what or how to overide this...   |
