A protocol identifier is also available, it indicates the compatibility between two versions.

The minimal list of bundles to start a Joram server is monolog.jar, a3-common.jar, a3-rt.jar, jcup.jar, joram-shared.jar, joram-mom-core.jar and a3-osgi.jar. If you use the shipped JNDI service it is also necessary to add jndi-shared.jar and jndi-server.jar bundles. This represents less than one megabytes.

A set of possible OSGi configuration is provided with the samples in samples/config directory.

To start a Joram/JMS client you need monolog.jar, jcup.jar, joram-shared.jar, joram-client-jms.jar and a JMS API jar geronimo-jms_1.1_spec.jar for example. If you want to use the shipped JNDI service it is also necessary to add jndi-client.jar and jndi-shared.jar.
