Broker XBean URI

The Broker XBean URI allows you to run a configured broker by referencing an Xml Configuration on the classpath. The URI points to an XML document which can be parsed via XBean or Spring. This URI is typically on the classpath; though in 4.2 onwards you can point to a file or URL as well.
