The Virtual Human Messaging library (VHMSG) defines a protocol and provides an API wrapper around ActiveMQ. It's intended to provide an easy solution for sending and receiving messages within the Virtual Human Architecture. It supports the following programming languages:
- C/C++
- C#
- Java
- TCL
In order for components to send or receive messages with each other, they need to:
