Description

The Programming In Apache Qpid documentation never discusses the format of the Connection URL string, the only required argument for constructing a Messaging Connection. The URL is specified by AMPQ 0.10:

amqp_url = "amqp:" prot_addr_list
prot_addr_list = [prot_addr ","]* prot_addr
prot_addr = tcp_prot_addr | tls_prot_addr

tcp_prot_addr = tcp_id tcp_addr
tcp_id = "tcp:" | ""
tcp_addr = [host [":" port] ]
host = <as per http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3986.txt>
port = number

The C++ Messaging connection string is not the same as the JMS Connection

This issue tracks adding a few lines to the documentation describing the connection format.
