Hello Everyone,

We have a requirement of two queues. One primary and other secondary i.e. if a 
message can be processed immediately, it is sent to primary queue else it is 
sent to secondary queue. Both queues are consumed by different MDBs and all 
transactions work in container transaction.

For primary queue consumer MDB say P_mdb the processing is straight forward as 
the messages are consumed right away. But for secondary queue consumer MDB say 
S_mdb we need to limit the processing on the basis of flag. Thus as message 
selector we use a flag with value Y for this S_mdb. Thus messages with flag 
having value Y will be processed. Now when we want to send message to secondary 
queue we send message with flag as N. Thus message is sent to queue but not 
processed. But when we want to process this message, we browse through 
secondary queue and set the flag as Y to the message read from the queue, thus 
making it eligible for processing by S_mdb.

We want to know whether this approach is correct or there is other way to 
explicitly process subset of messages already present on queue i.e. selective 
processing. We do not want that message sent to queue to be processed right 
away but we want that we can have a control on which all messages can be 
processed i.e. consumed at later point of time. The method receive, receive 
(time), and receiveNoWait does not work for us as they do not give assurance 
that the message will be processed within the time limit of ongoing container 
transaction. That???s why we introduced S_mdb.

Though this approach works but we see that messages are processed only on high 
load for secondary queue by S_mdb otherwise the messages remain on the queue 
despite of changing their flag and not sent to S_mdb for consumption (waited 
for couple of hours!). That???s why I have raised the above question.

Best Regards,
Abhishek
