Hey Bruce,

I get the following error when trying to build the project at the spring-jms-example root and also when building from the command line as indicated in the readme:

Could not find artifact org.bsnyder.spring.jms:spring-jms-activemq:pom:1.0-SNAPSHOT

I'm sure it's something simple but wanted to post for a quick answer in case others might run into the same problem. I've been reading your blogs and think it's some of the best Spring JMS info on the web so just wanted to get your code examples running.

the

mvn clean install 

works great, but when I type

mvn -Pproducer exec:java

get the error

mvn -Pproducer exec:java -DsendType=converAndSend
should be
mvn -Pproducer exec:java -DsendType=convertAndSend
There is a ‘t’ end the word ‘convent’.

README suggests to run by command:

Run the Producer for the MessageListenerAdapter Example

This example requires a couple of arguments, the first one for the
destination name and the second one for the message type. The destination name
should be either FOO.TEST or FOO.TEST2. The message type should text, bytes,
map or object. Below is an example of text:

$ cd ./async/message-listener
$ mvn -Pproducer exec:java -Dexec.args="FOO.TEST2 text"

but the actually destination defined in consumer xml are

<jms:listener destination="TEST.FOO" ref="messageDelegate" />
<jms:listener destination="TEST.FOO2" ref="messageDelegate" />

PS: the cd above is also incorrect .
shall be $ cd ./async/message-listener-adapter

I have seen none of mvn command works.

g the Java class. org.bsnyder.spring.jms.ProducerApp -> [Help 1]

The examples of the link
http://bsnyderblog.blogspot.de/2010/02/using-spring-to-receive-jms-messages.html
are also not correct.
public class SimpleMessageProducer {

the payload is not correct as it should be final, but can not be accessed in for loop
TextMessage message = session.createTextMessage(payload.toString());
you are accssing message.setIntProperty("messageCount", i);

None of your blog is error free.!!!!
