------------------------------------
Hi Keith,
I prepared two tests - one for queue names and one for virtual hosts name. The
way I tested it is that I add a new queue/host with a configuration (max
delivery count / message store) detail contained in the tag with queue/host
name. Then I check that the property was correctly loaded. It may not be the
best approach, but it definitely fails without my patch and succeeds with the
patch.
Regards
Jakub

> The latest version of the Qpid Java broker seems to have a problem with the
> virtual hosts and queues containing a dot in their name. This is related to
> the way the virtualhosts.xml configuration file is designed. When a queue is
> defined, the <queue> tag contains only the <name> tag with the queue name and
> a tag named after the queue which contains additional details. E.g.
> <queue>
> <name>queue.with.dot.in.the.name</name>
> <queue.with.dot.in.the.name>
> <durable>true</durable>
> </queue.with.dot.in.the.name>
> </queue>
> Unfortunately the dots are also used as special characters when working with
> the configuration file - they are used as delimiters in the XML hierarchy. In
> order to use them in the tag names, they need to be escaped with additional
> dot (i.e. queue..with..dot..in..the..name instead of
> queue.with.dot.in.the.name -
> http://commons.apache.org/configuration/userguide-1.2/howto_xml.html). This
> escaping doesn't seem to be currently done on the broker. As a result, the
> dots cannot be used in virtual host names or in queue names, which might be
> unfortunate for some users.
