If that's the case then I recommend you use a "jgroups://" URL, e.g.:
connectionFactory = new
ActiveMQConnectionFactory("jgroups://myChannelName?file=jgroups-file.xml,
userName, password);
The documentation [1] says this about jgroups://:
> the jgroups scheme is supported which provides an alternative to the udp
scheme for server discovery. The URL pattern is
jgroups://channelName?file=jgroups-xml-conf-filename where
jgroups-xml-conf-filename refers to an XML file on the classpath that
contains the JGroups configuration. The channelName is the name given to
the jgroups channel created.
Then you should be able to use the ConnectionFactory just like any other.
To be clear, the JGroups configuration in the XML on the client should
correspond to the broker's so that discovery will work.
It's worth noting that both the udp:// and jgroups:// URL schemes are not
often used since UDP multicast typically doesn't extend beyond a network
subnet which limits usability for remote clients.
