11.6. Add the ActiveMQ Spring bean

There’s one configuration detail you need to tend to. You need to configure the JMS plugin to leverage the ActiveMQ broker. You can do this either by adding a Spring bean to the resources.xml or by adding the bean using the Groovy DSL approach. The snippet that follows demonstrates adding the bean by using the DSL approach of adding your connection factory as a bean in the resources.groovy configuration file located in the grails-app/conf/spring folder of the application.

// Place your Spring DSL code here
beans = {
  connectionFactory(org.apache.activemq.ActiveMQConnectionFactory) {
    brokerURL = "vm://localhost"
  }
}
