"Java™ Message Service API Tutorial and Reference provides a clear and complete introduction to the Java™ Message Service (JMS) API. This book illustrates how to use the JMS API to build applications that create, send, receive, and read messages. Beginning with comprehensive descriptions of fundamental JMS concepts and building blocks, the coverage extends to all aspects of running and creating JMS applications. Each topic area is supported by relevant and well-crafted JMS program examples that demonstrate how to put the technology to work. The JMS API is an integral part of the Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE™ platform). Developed by Sun Microsystems in close cooperation with enterprise messaging partners, JMS works together with other technologies to provide reliable, asynchronous communication between components in a distributed computing environment. It delivers a new, powerful tool for enterprise messaging--the cornerstone of today's enterprise applications. You will find in-depth coverage on how to: Create and run JMS client programsUse the JMS API within the J2EE platform Consume messages asynchronously with a message-driven beanProduce messages from an application client and from a session beanAccess an entity bean from a message-driven bean Create applications for the J2EE platform that use the JMS API to Consume messagesProduce messagesAccess an entity bean From BytesMessage to TransactionRolledBackException, a useful alphabetical reference provides complete information on all facets of the JMS API. Additionally, the tutorial example programs are downloadable from the Sun Web site, so that you can adapt them to implementations of the JMSAPI and the J2EE platform. Written by an expert team, the book offers an unparalleled technical understanding of JMS and its integration into the J2EE platform.

The Indian Reorganization Act (IRA) of 1934 has been generally acknowledged as the most important statute affecting Native Americans after the General Allotment Act of 1887, and it is probably the most important single statute affecting Native Americans during the two-thirds of a century since its passage. More than half the Native governments in the contemporary U.S. are organized under its provisions or under separate statutes that parallel the IRA in major ways. Although the impact of the IRA has been widely studied and debated, until now no scholar has looked closely at the forces that shaped its creation and passage. Author Elmer Rusco spent over a decade of research in national and regional archives and other repositories to examine the legislative intent of the IRA, including the role of issues such as the nature and significance of judge-made Indian law; the allotment policy and its relation to Indian self-government; the nature of Native American governments before the IRA; the views and actions of John Collier, commissioner of Indian Affairs and leader in the campaign to reform the nation's Indian policy; and the influence of relations between the president and Congress during the second year of the New Deal. Rusco also discusses the role of conflicting ideologies and interests in this effort to expand the rights of Native Americans; the general ignorance of Native American concerns and policy on the part of legislators engaged in the writing and passage of the law; and the limited but crucial impact of Indian involvement in the struggle over the IRA. This is a magisterial study, based on meticulous research and thoughtful analysis, that will stand as a major contributionto the study of Native American life in the twentieth century. Whatever the lasting impact of the IRA, this brilliant study of the events leading to its creation will endure as the definitive discussion of the origins of that landmark law.
