JAkub Scholz commented on QPID-4238: ------------------------------------ Thanks Robbie ... > Virtual hosts or queues with dots in their names do not work > ------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: QPID-4238 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-4238 > Project: Qpid > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Java Broker > Affects Versions: 0.19 > Reporter: JAkub Scholz > Assignee: Robbie Gemmell > Fix For: 0.19 > > Attachments: QPID-4238.patch, QPID-4238-tests.patch > > > 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. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
