Asynchronous Messaging Made Easy With Spring JMS

Article by Srini Penchikala, 8 pages, 30 minutes.
The article starts with a high level overview of JMS and then shows how to set up and program an application that uses JBoss MQ both directly and using Spring. The JMS introduction was readable. But the Spring vs. no-Spring comparison left me less than impressed. Why is everyone so exited that you can replace about 50 lines of Java code with 7 (!) XML configuration files? Am I just not getting "it"?
read it

PS: why is it that onjava (like many other sites) has a special "printable" view of their articles, but I still get thumbnail images with "click to view full size image" on my printout?
