Hi Kai,

I think you missed understood :)
I'm proposing to add another on method on Connection - e.g. setClientInternalExceptionListener() - that registers an exception listener of internal exceptions only - like in this ActiveMQSession.run() case.

We then only pass exceptions to the ExceptionListener registered by setExceptionListener() that directly affect the connection.

cheers,

Rob

Rob,

I do understand that you don't want to skip the mechanism in general in
order
to not break any existing code that relies on it.
However, I am only suggesting to remove the connection.onAsyncException() call in the ActiveMQSession.run() method. The connection that it is called upon is the one the RA has created in order to receive inbound messages for MDBs, i.e. the exception listener is guaranteed to be the one registered by the RA. Thus, no custom code created by developers can be affected by this
since such code cannot get a reference to this connection in order to
register its own exception listener on the connection, right?
Or are you suggesting that the ActiveMQSession.run() method is probably
(mis-)used by developers for purposes other than the RA?

Hi Kai,

I agree with what you say - but the original reason we passed
exceptions is that some developers required to know if there was a
problem by this mechanism. ActiveMQ users in general don't try to
reconnect on a Connection.onException() - because  they typically use
a fault tolerant failover connection (now the default transport).

Its to support these users I'm suggesting that we add a supplementary
method to call an exception - and use Connection.onException() for its
proper purpose :) If you don't register an exception listener on this
new method - it won't know anything about it - the exception will just
get logged - which handles your case as well

cheers,

Rob
