If I am understanding this correctly, this will be big for all of us. I have played with an early copy of this and found it to be quite similar to the existing API, best of all this will eliminate the need for the Agent. Actually this is not correct, we still have the agent but the only supported mode is LOC_LOCATOR. [Edited 7/27 11:08MST]
The Native Java API has been released as a new SupportPack: WA0C It is now available for download at:

From what I understand:
The original Java API's call native code to interact with the workflow server. This can cause problems on WAS as fmcojagt.jar has to be on the server classpath, a recent article on developer works highlighted the problem of the workflow web client and WBI monitor running on the same instance of WAS, as they both use the java client.
The new API is pure java, it should be more manageable and has the potential to cause less problems! |

Thanks for the quick reply. Could you please post a link to the document to which you referred on DeveloperWorks?
Thanks,

Not exactly sure what you are talking about. This API should allow you to run java mqwf client code on linux, since there will be no need to have an MQWF client installed.
