A ActiveMQResourceAdapter can be declared via xml in the
`<tomee-home>/conf/tomee.xml` file or in a `WEB-INF/resources.xml` file
using a declaration like the following. All properties in the element
body are optional.

[source,xml]
----
<Resource id="myActiveMQResourceAdapter" type="ActiveMQResourceAdapter">
    brokerXmlConfig = broker:(tcp://localhost:61616)?useJmx=false
    dataSource = Default Unmanaged JDBC Database
    serverUrl = vm://localhost?waitForStart=20000&async=true
    startupTimeout = 10 seconds
</Resource>
----

Alternatively, a ActiveMQResourceAdapter can be declared via properties
in the `<tomee-home>/conf/system.properties` file or via Java
VirtualMachine `-D` properties. The properties can also be used when
embedding TomEE via the `javax.ejb.embeddable.EJBContainer` API or
`InitialContext`

[source,properties]
----
myActiveMQResourceAdapter = new://Resource?type=ActiveMQResourceAdapter
myActiveMQResourceAdapter.brokerXmlConfig = broker:(tcp://localhost:61616)?useJmx=false
myActiveMQResourceAdapter.dataSource = Default Unmanaged JDBC Database
myActiveMQResourceAdapter.serverUrl = vm://localhost?waitForStart=20000&async=true
myActiveMQResourceAdapter.startupTimeout = 10 seconds
----

Properties and xml can be mixed. Properties will override the xml
allowing for easy configuration change without the need for $\{} style
variable substitution. Properties are not case sensitive. If a property
is specified that is not supported by the declared
ActiveMQResourceAdapter a warning will be logged. If a
ActiveMQResourceAdapter is needed by the application and one is not
declared, TomEE will create one dynamically using default settings.
Multiple ActiveMQResourceAdapter declarations are allowed.
