> Extensions
> TIBCO Enterprise Message Service extends the JMS MapMessage and StreamMessage body types in two ways. These extensions allow TIBCO Enterprise Message Service to exchange messages with TIBCO Rendezvous and TIBCO SmartSockets programs, which have certain features not available within the JMS specification.

> • | You can insert another MapMessage or StreamMessage instance as a submessage into a MapMessage or StreamMessage, generating a series of nested messages, instead of a flat message.

> • | You can use arrays as well as primitive types for the values.

> These extensions add considerable flexibility to the two body types. However, they are extensions and therefore not compliant with JMS specifications. Extended messages are tagged as extensions with the vendor property tag JMS_TIBCO_MSG_EXT.
> For more information on message compatibility with Rendezvous messages, see Message Body in TIBCO Enterprise Message Service Release Notes.
