I was actually thinking about the message case, e.g.: AMQMessage m = AMQMessage.fromJMSMessage(...) or something like that. But you could do something similar with the destination. Also, I wasn't necessarily thinking that you would cast inside the static method, I think the decorator thing I mentioned earlier is worthy of some exploration, but obviously one of the benefits of having the method is we can change what it does later. >>> Hopefully most AMQP/QPID extensions can be isolated in cofiguration >>> rather than code... >> I think the destination abstraction is a reasonably useful way to do >> this for most things.

I was thinking of client config, specifically what we've traditionally referred to as the "binding URL", although I've never actually understood why it's a URL, and it really doesn't have all that much to do with binding either, particularly in a 1-0 model. I'm actually just thinking that text based config strings for destinations can control a lot of the client behavior we care about, e.g. ack policy, sync policy, prefetch, etc, and this has the benefit of being usable from both a config file and from code, and it is sort of an approved extension point in as much as JMS has them. --Rafael --------------------------------------------------------------------- Apache Qpid - AMQP Messaging Implementation Project: http://qpid.apache.org Use/Interact: mailto:dev-subscr...@qpid.apache.org Generally, this communication is for informational purposes only and it is not intended as an offer or solicitation for the purchase or sale of any financial instrument or as an official confirmation of any transaction.
