STOMP and JSON

Question

If I have a STOMP/JSON AJAX app, does that mean that JSON is functioning on top of STOMP?

Answer 1

Assuming that you mean STOMP (the protocol), not STOMP (the application), then JSON would be the data encoding method used over the STOMP messaging protocol. You would be serializing your data as JSON, then packaging it inside a STOMP message to send to the other end point of the connection.
