Actually, if you set the JMSListener to the appropriate cache level, it will not cache the consumer which means a consumer is created for every receive(). This allows for dynamically modifying the message selector which is used when a new consumer is created. There is a bit of overhead to do it this way, but it is probably better than creating an entirely new JMSListener for each async request. Perhaps this is a debateable issue.
You raise an interesting point regarding the use of a workqueue to handle the recieve() call for asynch situations. For each message sent in sendExchange(), a JMSTemplate is created to send message. Why isn't this same template object used for the recieve()? Currently on the trunk, the JMSTemplate is being used to receive synchronous responses. It could be just as easily used for asynch responses by putting template on workqueue and calling receive(). Doing it this way was would seem to do away with the necessity of having a JMSListener for the JMSConduit. This seems like it would make the JMSConduit code much simpler. ________________________________________ From: Willem Jiang [willem.ji...@gmail.com] Sent: Friday, April 16, 2010 9:48 AM To: dev@cxf.apache.org Subject: Re: Support for using JMS MessageID as CorrelationID If the JMSListener is the Spring DefaultMessageListenerContainer, I doubt you can change the listener's message selector at the runtime. So I suggest to create a receive task with jms message selector to receive the response, and use a thread pool to run these receive task. Willem Seumas Soltysik wrote: > Hi Willem, > One more thing.
