spring-amqp - Holistic Java and RabbitMQ Integration with Spring AMQP

Introducing Spring AMQP

Spring AMQP is a project designed to support the use of Spring and Java with the Advanced Message Queuing Protocol (AMQP) 0.9.1, with particular application to RabbitMQ. The project provides a robust framework for building messaging applications with ease and flexibility.

Getting Started

To work with Spring AMQP, one can check out the project from its GitHub repository and build from source using Gradle. Below are the steps to do just that:

Clone the repository:

git clone git://github.com/SpringSource/spring-amqp.git
cd spring-amqp

Build the project using Gradle:
```
./gradlew build
```
If memory allocation issues occur during the build process, it is recommended to increase the available heap and permgen for Gradle:
```
GRADLE_OPTS='-XX:MaxPermSize=1024m -Xmx1024m'
```
To install the jars into your local Maven cache, use:
```
./gradlew install
```
Various build options are available for generating documentation, API Javadoc, and distribution packages.
