Advanced Messaging Applications with MSMQ and MQSeries

Summary: Should be titled: Beginning Messaging Applications with ....
Review: This book is a nice introduction to MQ-Series, however, is no way advanced. It just touches the basic concepts but goes either very little or nothing into channels, clusters, distribution lists, threading, transactions, and so-forth. I skipped the chapters on MSMQ, so i can't say much about that section.

Summary: Good, overall coverage
Review: This book is relative if you are using MSMQ or MQSeries. There is also a chapter regarding using both of these messaging products together. This book will get you 'up and running'. The concepts of messaging are nicely explained

As the book was published in Dec 1999 I would have expected more coverage of MSMQ 2.0 and code samples in Java or C++. The author uses C for the examples! This actually makes the code samples more complex - such as the use of static local variables rather than private members.
