> Key: AMQ-1253
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/activemq/browse/AMQ-1253
> Project: ActiveMQ
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: JMS client
> Reporter: ocean
> Fix For: 4.2.0
>
>
> The following scenario can occur:
> (1) Create a javax.jms.Connection but don't start it
> (2) Create a MessageConsumer on the Connection and subscribe to a Queue
> (3) Send messages to the Queue
> In this case (turning on trace logging) the messages will be received by the
> Connection and they will silently be discarded. To the poor bloke who forgot
> to call Connection.start() it looks like the messages have simply disappeared
> and the universe is torturing him. He then must endure the horror of tracing
> through his code trying to find out why some cruel god is consuming his
> messages only to discover six hours later that he forgot to call
> Connection.start() and thus the punchline of the cruel joke that is his life
> is delivered and he's prompted to thoughts of self destruction and spilling
> the blood innocents.
> To prevent this scenario it would be nice if AMQ printed a warning (or better
> yet threw an exception) indicating that activity is occurring on a Connection
> that has not been started. In this case the programmer could clearly see that
> he forgot to call Connection.start(), happily add the line and continue on
> into the brave future!
