activemq url starts with scp://

Question

I have inherited a system where the activemq address looks like this scp://localhost:61616

ActiveMQ itself only seems to be configured for tcp. I can't find any reference to that protocol here: http://activemq.apache.org/activemq-connection-uris

Has anybody seen this before?

Is the `scp://localhost:61616` used as a connection string? – Gustavo Kawamoto Aug 18 '20 at 10:33 — Gustavo Kawamoto, Aug 18 '20 at 10:33
Which version of ActiveMQ you're using? – Gustavo Kawamoto Aug 18 '20 at 10:42 — Gustavo Kawamoto, Aug 18 '20 at 10:42

SCP is not supported by default in ActiveMQ for the connection string (checked in 5.16.x, 5.15.x e 5.14.x), but there may be a few explanations for why that works:

The code is manipulating the URI to ignore the protocol definition. You can confirm this behaviour by replacing scp to anything else and checking if it still works.
There's a custom implementation of the protocol, as the ActiveMQ loads it's implementations using reflection. If that'd be the case I'd glad to see what are your use cases for implementing communication over scp.

thanks - something else was ignoring the protocol. but thanks for confirming that it doesn't exist — Alex028502, Aug 18 '20 at 14:22
