Hi Everyone, I have this question. I am now gonna do an integration involving MQ and it is different from the other mq scenarios i've handled before. Most of what i've handled before involved the request reply pattern which can easily be done in mq via the correlation id scheme.
In this case, what I have to do is to just put a message on the request queue and a message will be placed on a request queue. Transaction threads come in to place their requests on the queue and then a worker thread continuously polls the reply queue for incoming messages. I would then have to make the requesting threads to wait since they are waiting for a reply. I am not in any position to dictate the message format but I don't know that there is a custom correlation ID that I could use. What enterprise integration patterns are involved in this scenario? How can I make sure my requesting threads wait. Is the other thread a polling consumer pattern? Thanks everyone, Hope you can help me. I've seen this kind of implementation before in jpos <jpos.org> in which they multiplex a port. Same pattern, I just can't telll exactly what pattern this is Carlo
