Sun Java System Message Queue 3.5 SP1 Administration Guide

> ## Appendix H
> Stability of Message Queue Interfaces

> Sun Java System Message Queue uses many interfaces, that might be of use to administrators for automating administration tasks. Table H-1 classifies these interfaces according to how stable they are, that is, how unlikely they are to change in subsequent versions of the product. The classification scheme is described in Table H-2.

> Table H-2 Interface Stability Classification Scheme

> Classification | Description
> --- | ---
> Private | Not for direct use by customers. May change or be removed in any release.
> Evolving | For use by customers. Subject to incompatible change at a major (e.g. 3.0, 4.0) or minor (e.g. 3.1, 3.2) release. The changes will be made carefully and slowly. Reasonable efforts will be made to ensure that all changes are compatible but that is not guaranteed.
> Stable | For use by customers. Subject to incompatible change at a major (e.g 3.0, 4.0) release only.
> Standard | For use by customers. These interfaces are defined by a formal standard, and controlled by a standards organization. Incompatible changes to these interfaces are rare.
> Unstable | For use by customers. Subject to incompatible change at a major (e.g. 3.0, 4.0) or minor (e.g. 3.1, 3.2) release. Customers are advised that these interfaces may be removed or changed substantially and in an incompatible way in a future release. It is recommended that customers not create explicit dependencies on unstable interfaces.
