Yes I tried the consumer tool and that worked fine. I ideally want to read what I have placed on activemq with IBM tooling. Initially the test tool "getc" and then with the MQQueueManager and associated classes out of the com.ibm.mq jars.
My final aim to provide an IBM look-alike interface for reading whose underbelly is actually activemq. I was hoping that the IBM tools would use some standard protocol - they are clearly not doing so. This would be for test environments where Websphere MQ isn't readily available. However a quick activemq installation plus a little bit of reading software would be easy to make available. As others have suggested it's probably writing your own code and then using some camel type approach. Although you still wonder if that will work due to the protocol issues. --back to the drawing board. cheers for the answers.
