Interface JMSContext
- All Superinterfaces:
AutoCloseable
- All Known Subinterfaces:
XAJMSContext
JMSContext
is the main interface in the simplified Jakarta Messaging API introduced for Jakarta Messaging 2.0. This combines in a
single object the functionality of two separate objects from the Java Message Service 1.1 API: a Connection
and a
Session
.
When an application needs to send messages it use the createProducer
method to create a JMSProducer
which provides methods to configure and send messages. Messages may be sent either synchronously or asynchronously.
When an application needs to receive messages it uses one of several createConsumer
or
createDurableConsumer
methods to create a JMSConsumer
. A JMSConsumer
provides methods to
receive messages either synchronously or asynchronously.
In terms of the Java Message Service 1.1 API a JMSContext
should be thought of as representing both a Connection
and a
Session
. Although the simplified API removes the need for applications to use those objects, the concepts of
connection and session remain important. A connection represents a physical link to the Jakarta Messaging server and a session
represents a single-threaded context for sending and receiving messages.
A JMSContext
may be created by calling one of several createContext
methods on a
ConnectionFactory
. A JMSContext
that is created in this way is described as being
application-managed. An application-managed JMSContext
must be closed when no longer needed by calling
its close
method.
Applications running in the Jakarta EE web and EJB containers may alternatively inject a JMSContext
into their
application using the @Inject
annotation. A JMSContext
that is created in this way is described as
being container-managed. A container-managed JMSContext
will be closed automatically by the container.
Applications running in the Jakarta EE web and EJB containers are not permitted to create more than one active session on a connection so combining them in a single object takes advantage of this restriction to offer a simpler API.
However applications running in a Java SE environment or in the Jakarta EE application client container are permitted to
create multiple active sessions on the same connection. This allows the same physical connection to be used in
multiple threads simultaneously. Such applications which require multiple sessions to be created on the same
connection should use one of the createContext
methods on the ConnectionFactory
to create the first
JMSContext
and then use the createContext
method on JMSContext
to create additional
JMSContext
objects that use the same connection. All these JMSContext
objects are application-managed
and must be closed when no longer needed by calling their close
method.

AUTO_ACKNOWLEDGE
static final int AUTO_ACKNOWLEDGEWith this session mode, the JMSContext's session automatically acknowledges a client's receipt of a message either when the session has successfully returned from a call toreceive
or when the message listener the session has called to process the message successfully returns.- See Also:
-
CLIENT_ACKNOWLEDGE
static final int CLIENT_ACKNOWLEDGEWith this session mode, the client acknowledges a consumed message by calling the message'sacknowledge
method. Acknowledging a consumed message acknowledges all messages that the session has consumed.When this session mode is used, a client may build up a large number of unacknowledged messages while attempting to process them. A Jakarta Messaging provider should provide administrators with a way to limit client overrun so that clients are not driven to resource exhaustion and ensuing failure when some resource they are using is temporarily blocked.
- See Also:
-
DUPS_OK_ACKNOWLEDGE
static final int DUPS_OK_ACKNOWLEDGEThis session mode instructs the JMSContext's session to lazily acknowledge the delivery of messages. This is likely to result in the delivery of some duplicate messages if the Jakarta Messaging provider fails, so it should only be used by consumers that can tolerate duplicate messages. Use of this mode can reduce session overhead by minimizing the work the session does to prevent duplicates.- See Also:
-
SESSION_TRANSACTED
static final int SESSION_TRANSACTEDThis session mode instructs the JMSContext's session to deliver and consume messages in a local transaction which will be subsequently committed by callingcommit
or rolled back by callingrollback
.- See Also:

createContext
Creates a newJMSContext
with the specified session mode using the same connection as thisJMSContext
and creating a new session.This method does not start the connection. If the connection has not already been started then it will be automatically started when a
JMSConsumer
is created on any of theJMSContext
objects for that connection.- If
sessionMode
is set toJMSContext.SESSION_TRANSACTED
then the session will use a local transaction which may subsequently be committed or rolled back by calling theJMSContext
'scommit
orrollback
methods. - If
sessionMode
is set to any ofJMSContext.CLIENT_ACKNOWLEDGE
,JMSContext.AUTO_ACKNOWLEDGE
orJMSContext.DUPS_OK_ACKNOWLEDGE
. then the session will be non-transacted and messages received by this session will be acknowledged according to the value ofsessionMode
. For a definition of the meaning of these acknowledgement modes see the links below.
This method must not be used by applications running in the Jakarta EE web or EJB containers because doing so would violate the restriction that such an application must not attempt to create more than one active (not closed)
Session
object per connection. If this method is called in a Jakarta EE web or EJB container then aJMSRuntimeException
will be thrown.- Parameters:
sessionMode
- indicates which of four possible session modes will be used. The permitted values areJMSContext.SESSION_TRANSACTED
,JMSContext.CLIENT_ACKNOWLEDGE
,JMSContext.AUTO_ACKNOWLEDGE
andJMSContext.DUPS_OK_ACKNOWLEDGE
.- Returns:
- a newly created JMSContext
- Throws:
JMSRuntimeException
- if the Jakarta Messaging provider fails to create the JMSContext due to- some internal error or
- because this method is being called in a Jakarta EE web or EJB application.

object - See Also:
-
getClientID
String getClientID()Gets the client identifier for the JMSContext's connection.This value is specific to the Jakarta Messaging provider. It is either preconfigured by an administrator in a
ConnectionFactory
object or assigned dynamically by the application by calling thesetClientID
method.- Returns:
- the unique client identifier
- Throws:
JMSRuntimeException
- if the Jakarta Messaging provider fails to return the client ID for the JMSContext's connection due to some internal error.
-
setClientID
Sets the client identifier for the JMSContext's connection.The preferred way to assign a Jakarta Messaging client's client identifier is for it to be configured in a client-specific
ConnectionFactory
object and transparently assigned to theConnection
object it creates.Alternatively, a client can set the client identifier for the JMSContext's connection using a provider-specific value. The facility to set its client identifier explicitly is not a mechanism for overriding the identifier that has been administratively configured. It is provided for the case where no administratively specified identifier exists. If one does exist, an attempt to change it by setting it must throw an
IllegalStateRuntimeException
. If a client sets the client identifier explicitly, it must do so immediately after it creates the JMSContext and before any other action on the JMSContext is taken. After this point, setting the client identifier is a programming error that should throw anIllegalStateRuntimeException
.The purpose of the client identifier is to associate the JMSContext's connection and its objects with a state maintained on behalf of the client by a provider. The only such state identified by the Jakarta Messaging API is that required to support durable subscriptions.
If another connection with the same
clientID
is already running when this method is called, the Jakarta Messaging provider should detect the duplicate ID and throw anInvalidClientIDException
.This method must not be used in a Jakarta EE web or EJB application. Doing so may cause a
JMSRuntimeException
to be thrown though this is not guaranteed.This method must not be used if the
JMSContext
is container-managed (injected). Doing so will cause aIllegalStateRuntimeException
to be thrown.- Parameters:
clientID
- the unique client identifier- Throws:
InvalidClientIDRuntimeException
- if the Jakarta Messaging client specifies an invalid or duplicate client ID.IllegalStateRuntimeException
-- if the Jakarta Messaging client attempts to set the client ID for the JMSContext's connection at the wrong time or
- if the client ID has been administratively configured or
- if the
JMSContext
is container-managed (injected).
JMSRuntimeException
- if the Jakarta Messaging provider fails to set the client ID for the the JMSContext's connection for one of the following reasons:- an internal error has occurred or
- this method has been called in a Jakarta EE web or EJB application (though it is not guaranteed that an exception is thrown in this case)
-
getMetaData
ConnectionMetaData getMetaData()Gets the connection metadata for the JMSContext's connection.- Returns:
- the connection metadata
- Throws:
JMSRuntimeException
- if the Jakarta Messaging provider fails to get the connection metadata- See Also:
-
getExceptionListener
ExceptionListener getExceptionListener()Gets theExceptionListener
object for the JMSContext's connection. Not everyConnection
has anExceptionListener
associated with it.- Returns:
- the
ExceptionListener
for the JMSContext's connection, or null if noExceptionListener
is associated with that connection. - Throws:
JMSRuntimeException
- if the Jakarta Messaging provider fails to get theExceptionListener
for the JMSContext's connection.- See Also:
-
setExceptionListener
Sets an exception listener for the JMSContext's connection.If a Jakarta Messaging provider detects a serious problem with a connection, it informs the connection's
ExceptionListener
, if one has been registered. It does this by calling the listener'sonException
method, passing it aJMSRuntimeException
object describing the problem.An exception listener allows a client to be notified of a problem asynchronously. Some connections only consume messages, so they would have no other way to learn their connection has failed.
A connection serializes execution of its
ExceptionListener
.A Jakarta Messaging provider should attempt to resolve connection problems itself before it notifies the client of them.
This method must not be used in a Jakarta EE web or EJB application. Doing so may cause a
JMSRuntimeException
to be thrown though this is not guaranteed.This method must not be used if the
JMSContext
is container-managed (injected). Doing so will cause aIllegalStateRuntimeException
to be thrown.- Parameters:
listener
- the exception listener- Throws:
IllegalStateRuntimeException
- if theJMSContext
is container-managed (injected).JMSRuntimeException
- if the Jakarta Messaging provider fails to set the exception listener for one of the following reasons:- an internal error has occurred or
- this method has been called in a Jakarta EE web or EJB application (though it is not guaranteed that an exception is thrown in this case)
-
start
void start()Starts (or restarts) delivery of incoming messages by the JMSContext's connection. A call tostart
on a connection that has already been started is ignored.This method must not be used if the
JMSContext
is container-managed (injected). Doing so will cause aIllegalStateRuntimeException
to be thrown.- Throws:
IllegalStateRuntimeException
- if theJMSContext
is container-managed (injected).JMSRuntimeException
- if the Jakarta Messaging provider fails to start message delivery due to some internal error.- See Also:
-
stop
void stop()Temporarily stops the delivery of incoming messages by the JMSContext's connection. Delivery can be restarted using thestart
method. When the connection is stopped, delivery to all the connection's message consumers is inhibited: synchronous receives block, and messages are not delivered to message listeners.Stopping a connection has no effect on its ability to send messages. A call to
stop
on a connection that has already been stopped is ignored.A call to
stop
must not return until delivery of messages has paused. This means that a client can rely on the fact that none of its message listeners will be called and that all threads of control waiting forreceive
calls to return will not return with a message until the connection is restarted. The receive timers for a stopped connection continue to advance, so receives may time out while the connection is stopped.If message listeners are running when
stop
is invoked, thestop
call must wait until all of them have returned before it may return. While these message listeners are completing, they must have the full services of the connection available to them.However if the stop method is called from a message listener on its own
JMSContext
, or any otherJMSContext
that uses the same connection, then it will either fail and throw ajakarta.jms.IllegalStateRuntimeException
, or it will succeed and stop the connection, blocking until all other message listeners that may have been running have returned.Since two alternative behaviors are permitted in this case, applications should avoid calling
stop
from a message listener on its ownJMSContext
, or any otherJMSContext
that uses the same connection, because this is not portable.For the avoidance of doubt, if an exception listener for the JMSContext's connection is running when
stop
is invoked, there is no requirement for thestop
call to wait until the exception listener has returned before it may return.This method must not be used in a Jakarta EE web or EJB application. Doing so may cause a
JMSRuntimeException
to be thrown though this is not guaranteed.This method must not be used if the
JMSContext
is container-managed (injected). Doing so will cause aIllegalStateRuntimeException
to be thrown.- Throws:
IllegalStateRuntimeException
-- if this method has been called by a MessageListener on its own JMSContext
- if the
JMSContext
is container-managed (injected).
JMSRuntimeException
- if the Jakarta Messaging provider fails to stop message delivery for one of the following reasons:- an internal error has occurred or
- this method has been called in a Jakarta EE web or EJB application (though it is not guaranteed that an exception is thrown in this case)
- See Also:
-
setAutoStart
void setAutoStart(boolean autoStart) Specifies whether the underlying connection used by thisJMSContext
will be started automatically when a consumer is created. This is the default behaviour, and it may be disabled by calling this method with a value offalse
.This method does not itself either start or stop the connection.
This method must not be used if the
JMSContext
is container-managed (injected). Doing so will cause aIllegalStateRuntimeException
to be thrown.- Parameters:
autoStart
- Whether the underlying connection used by thisJMSContext
will be automatically started when a consumer is created.- Throws:
IllegalStateRuntimeException
- if theJMSContext
is container-managed (injected)- See Also:
-
getAutoStart
boolean getAutoStart()Returns whether the underlying connection used by thisJMSContext
will be started automatically when a consumer is created.- Returns:
- whether the underlying connection used by this
JMSContext
will be started automatically when a consumer is created. - See Also:
-
close
void close()Closes the JMSContextThis closes the underlying session and any underlying producers and consumers. If there are no other active (not closed) JMSContext objects using the underlying connection then this method also closes the underlying connection.
Since a provider typically allocates significant resources outside the JVM on behalf of a connection, clients should close these resources when they are not needed. Relying on garbage collection to eventually reclaim these resources may not be timely enough.
Closing a connection causes all temporary destinations to be deleted.
When this method is invoked, it should not return until message processing has been shut down in an orderly fashion. This means that all message listeners that may have been running have returned, and that all pending receives have returned. A close terminates all pending message receives on the connection's sessions' consumers. The receives may return with a message or with null, depending on whether there was a message available at the time of the close. If one or more of the connection's sessions' message listeners is processing a message at the time when connection
close
is invoked, all the facilities of the connection and its sessions must remain available to those listeners until they return control to the Jakarta Messaging provider.However if the close method is called from a message listener on its own
JMSContext
, then it will either fail and throw ajakarta.jms.IllegalStateRuntimeException
, or it will succeed and close theJMSContext
. Ifclose
succeeds and the session mode of theJMSContext
is set toAUTO_ACKNOWLEDGE
, the current message will still be acknowledged automatically when the onMessage call completes.Since two alternative behaviors are permitted in this case, applications should avoid calling close from a message listener on its own
JMSContext
because this is not portable.This method must not return until any incomplete asynchronous send operations for this JMSContext have been completed and any CompletionListener callbacks have returned. Incomplete sends should be allowed to complete normally unless an error occurs.
For the avoidance of doubt, if an exception listener for the JMSContext's connection is running when
close
is invoked, there is no requirement for theclose
call to wait until the exception listener has returned before it may return.Closing a connection causes any of its sessions' transactions in progress to be rolled back. In the case where a session's work is coordinated by an external transaction manager, a session's
commit
androllback
methods are not used and the result of a closed session's work is determined later by the transaction manager.Closing a connection does NOT force an acknowledgment of client-acknowledged sessions.
Invoking the
acknowledge
method of a received message from a closed connection's session must throw anIllegalStateRuntimeException
. Closing a closed connection must NOT throw an exception.A CompletionListener callback method must not call close on its own JMSContext. Doing so will cause an IllegalStateRuntimeException to be thrown.
This method must not be used if the
JMSContext
is container-managed (injected). Doing so will cause aIllegalStateRuntimeException
to be thrown.- Specified by:

void commit()Commits all messages done in this transaction and releases any locks currently held.This method must not return until any incomplete asynchronous send operations for this JMSContext have been completed and any CompletionListener callbacks have returned. Incomplete sends should be allowed to complete normally unless an error occurs.
A CompletionListener callback method must not call commit on its own JMSContext. Doing so will cause an IllegalStateRuntimeException to be thrown.
This method must not be used if the
JMSContext
is container-managed (injected). Doing so will cause aIllegalStateRuntimeException
to be thrown.- Throws:
IllegalStateRuntimeException

recover
void recover()Stops message delivery in the JMSContext's session, and restarts message delivery with the oldest unacknowledged message.All consumers deliver messages in a serial order. Acknowledging a received message automatically acknowledges all messages that have been delivered to the client.
Restarting a session causes it to take the following actions:
- Stop message delivery
- Mark all messages that might have been delivered but not acknowledged as "redelivered"
- Restart the delivery sequence including all unacknowledged messages that had been previously delivered. Redelivered messages do not have to be delivered in exactly their original delivery order.
This method must not be used if the
JMSContext
is container-managed (injected). Doing so will cause aIllegalStateRuntimeException
to be thrown.- Throws:
IllegalStateRuntimeException
-- if the JMSContext's session is using a transaction
- if the
JMSContext
is container-managed (injected)
JMSRuntimeException
- if the Jakarta Messaging provider fails to stop and restart message delivery due to some internal error

- if the message selector is invalid.
-
createConsumer
Creates aJMSConsumer
for the specified destination, specifying a message selector and thenoLocal
parameter.A client uses a
JMSConsumer
object to receive messages that have been sent to a destination.The
noLocal
argument is for use when the destination is a topic and the JMSContext's connection is also being used to publish messages to that topic. IfnoLocal
is set to true then theJMSConsumer
will not receive messages published to the topic by its own connection. The default value of this argument is false. If the destination is a queue then the effect of settingnoLocal
to true is not specified.- Parameters:
destination
- theDestination
to accessmessageSelector
- only messages with properties matching the message selector expression are delivered. A value of null or an empty string indicates that there is no message selector for theJMSConsumer
.noLocal
- if true, and the destination is a topic, then theJMSConsumer
will not receive messages published to the topic by its own connection- Returns:
- The created
JMSConsumer
object. - Throws:
JMSRuntimeException
- if the session fails to create aJMSConsumer
due to some internal error.InvalidDestinationRuntimeException
- if an invalid destination is specified.InvalidSelectorRuntimeException
- if the message selector is invalid.
-
createQueue
Creates aQueue
object which encapsulates a specified provider-specific queue name.The use of provider-specific queue names in an application may render the application non-portable. Portable applications are recommended to not use this method but instead look up an administratively-defined
Queue
object using JNDI.Note that this method simply creates an object that encapsulates the name of a queue. It does not create the physical queue in the Jakarta Messaging provider. Jakarta Messaging does not provide a method to create the physical queue, since this would be specific to a given Jakarta Messaging provider. Creating a physical queue is provider-specific and is typically an administrative task performed by an administrator, though some providers may create them automatically when needed. The one exception to this is the creation of a temporary queue, which is done using the
createTemporaryQueue
method.- Parameters:
queueName
- A provider-specific queue name- Returns:
- a Queue object which encapsulates the specified name
- Throws:
JMSRuntimeException
- if a Queue object cannot be created due to some internal error
-
createTopic
Creates aTopic
object which encapsulates a specified provider-specific topic name.The use of provider-specific topic names in an application may render the application non-portable. Portable applications are recommended to not use this method but instead look up an administratively-defined
Topic
object using JNDI.Note that this method simply creates an object that encapsulates the name of a topic. It does not create the physical topic in the Jakarta Messaging provider. Jakarta Messaging does not provide a method to create the physical topic, since this would be specific to a given Jakarta Messaging provider. Creating a physical topic is provider-specific and is typically an administrative task performed by an administrator, though some providers may create them automatically when needed. The one exception to this is the creation of a temporary topic, which is done using the
createTemporaryTopic
method.- Parameters:
topicName
- A provider-specific topic name- Returns:
- a Topic object which encapsulates the specified name
- Throws:
JMSRuntimeException
- if a Topic object cannot be created due to some internal error
-
createDurableConsumer
Creates an unshared durable subscription on the specified topic (if one does not already exist) and creates a consumer on that durable subscription. This method creates the durable subscription without a message selector and with anoLocal
value offalse
.A durable subscription is used by an application which needs to receive all the messages published on a topic, including the ones published when there is no active consumer associated with it. The Jakarta Messaging provider retains a record of this durable subscription and ensures that all messages from the topic's publishers are retained until they are delivered to, and acknowledged by, a consumer on this durable subscription or until they have expired.
A durable subscription will continue to accumulate messages until it is deleted using the
unsubscribe
method.This method may only be used with unshared durable subscriptions. Any durable subscription created using this method will be unshared. This means that only one active (i.e. not closed) consumer on the subscription may exist at a time. The term "consumer" here means a
TopicSubscriber
,MessageConsumer
orJMSConsumer
object in any client.An unshared durable subscription is identified by a name specified by the client and by the client identifier, which must be set. An application which subsequently wishes to create a consumer on that unshared durable subscription must use the same client identifier.
If an unshared durable subscription already exists with the same name and client identifier, and the same topic, message selector and
noLocal
value has been specified, and there is no consumer already active (i.e. not closed) on the durable subscription then this method creates aJMSConsumer
on the existing durable subscription.If an unshared durable subscription already exists with the same name and client identifier, and there is a consumer already active (i.e. not closed) on the durable subscription, then a
JMSRuntimeException
will be thrown.If an unshared durable subscription already exists with the same name and client identifier but a different topic, message selector or
noLocal
value has been specified, and there is no consumer already active (i.e. not closed) on the durable subscription then this is equivalent to unsubscribing (deleting) the old one and creating a new one.A shared durable subscription and an unshared durable subscription may not have the same name and client identifier. If a shared durable subscription already exists with the same name and client identifier then a
JMSRuntimeException
is thrown.There is no restriction on durable subscriptions and shared non-durable subscriptions having the same name and clientId. Such subscriptions would be completely separate.
- Parameters:
topic
- the non-temporaryTopic
to subscribe toname
- the name used to identify this subscription- Returns:
- The created
JMSConsumer
object. - Throws:
InvalidDestinationRuntimeException
- if an invalid topic is specified.IllegalStateRuntimeException
- if the client identifier is unsetJMSRuntimeException
-- if the session fails to create the non-shared durable subscription and
JMSConsumer
due to some internal error - if an unshared durable subscription already exists with the same name and client identifier, and there is a consumer already active
- if a shared durable subscription already exists with the same name and client identifier

createDurableConsumer
JMSConsumer createDurableConsumer(Topic topic, String name, String messageSelector, boolean noLocal) Creates an unshared durable subscription on the specified topic (if one does not already exist), specifying a message selector and thenoLocal
parameter, and creates a consumer on that durable subscription.A durable subscription is used by an application which needs to receive all the messages published on a topic, including the ones published when there is no active consumer associated with it. The Jakarta Messaging provider retains a record of this durable subscription and ensures that all messages from the topic's publishers are retained until they are delivered to, and acknowledged by, a consumer on this durable subscription or until they have expired.
A durable subscription will continue to accumulate messages until it is deleted using the
unsubscribe
method.This method may only be used with unshared durable subscriptions. Any durable subscription created using this method will be unshared. This means that only one active (i.e. not closed) consumer on the subscription may exist at a time. The term "consumer" here means a

orJMSConsumer
object in any client.An unshared durable subscription is identified by a name specified by the client and by the client identifier, which must be set. An application which subsequently wishes to create a consumer on that unshared durable subscription must use the same client identifier.
If an unshared durable subscription already exists with the same name and client identifier, and the same topic, message selector and
noLocal
value has been specified, and there is no consumer already active (i.e. not closed) on the durable subscription then this method creates aJMSConsumer
on the existing durable subscription.If an unshared durable subscription already exists with the same name and client identifier, and there is a consumer already active (i.e. not closed) on the durable subscription, then a
JMSRuntimeException
will be thrown.If an unshared durable subscription already exists with the same name and client identifier but a different topic, message selector or
noLocal
value has been specified, and there is no consumer already active (i.e. not closed) on the durable subscription then this is equivalent to unsubscribing (deleting) the old one and creating a new one.If
noLocal
is set to true then any messages published to the topic using thisJMSContext
's connection, or any other connection with the same client identifier, will not be added to the durable subscription.A shared durable subscription and an unshared durable subscription may not have the same name and client identifier. If a shared durable subscription already exists with the same name and client identifier then a
JMSRuntimeException
is thrown.There is no restriction on durable subscriptions and shared non-durable subscriptions having the same name and clientId. Such subscriptions would be completely separate.
This method is identical to the corresponding
createDurableSubscriber
method except that it returns aMessageConsumer
rather than aTopicSubscriber
to represent the consumer.- Parameters:
topic
- the non-temporaryTopic
to subscribe toname
- the name used to identify this subscriptionmessageSelector
- only messages with properties matching the message selector expression are added to the durable subscription. A value of null or an empty string indicates that there is no message selector for the durable subscription.noLocal
- if true then any messages published to the topic using this session's connection, or any other connection with the same client identifier, will not be added to the durable subscription.- Returns:
- The created
JMSConsumer
object. - Throws:
InvalidDestinationRuntimeException
- if an invalid topic is specified.InvalidSelectorRuntimeException
- if the message selector is invalid.IllegalStateRuntimeException
- if the client identifier is unsetJMSRuntimeException
-- if the session fails to create the non-shared durable subscription and
JMSConsumer
due to some internal error - if an unshared durable subscription already exists with the same name and client identifier, and there is a consumer already active
- if a shared durable subscription already exists with the same name and client identifier
- if the session fails to create the non-shared durable subscription and

createBrowser
Creates aQueueBrowser
object to peek at the messages on the specified queue.- Parameters:
queue
- thequeue
to access- Returns:
- The created
QueueBrowser
object. - Throws:
JMSRuntimeException
- if the session fails to create a browser due to some internal error.InvalidDestinationRuntimeException
- if an invalid destination is specified
-
createBrowser
Creates aQueueBrowser
object to peek at the messages on the specified queue using a message selector.- Parameters:
queue
- thequeue
to accessmessageSelector
- only messages with properties matching the message selector expression are delivered. A value of null or an empty string indicates that there is no message selector for the message consumer.- Returns:
- The created
QueueBrowser
object. - Throws:
JMSRuntimeException
- if the session fails to create a browser due to some internal error.InvalidDestinationRuntimeException
- if an invalid destination is specifiedInvalidSelectorRuntimeException
- if the message selector is invalid.
-
createTemporaryQueue
TemporaryQueue createTemporaryQueue()Creates aTemporaryQueue
object. Its lifetime will be that of the JMSContext'sConnection
unless it is deleted earlier.- Returns:
- a temporary queue identity
- Throws:
JMSRuntimeException
- if the session fails to create a temporary queue due to some internal error.
-
createTemporaryTopic
TemporaryTopic createTemporaryTopic()Creates aTemporaryTopic
object. Its lifetime will be that of the JMSContext'sConnection
unless it is deleted earlier.- Returns:
- a temporary topic identity
- Throws:
JMSRuntimeException
- if the session fails to create a temporary topic due to some internal error.
-
unsubscribe
Unsubscribes a durable subscription that has been created by a client.This method deletes the state being maintained on behalf of the subscriber by its provider.
A durable subscription is identified by a name specified by the client and by the client identifier if set. If the client identifier was set when the durable subscription was created then a client which subsequently wishes to use this method to delete a durable subscription must use the same client identifier.
It is erroneous for a client to delete a durable subscription while there is an active (not closed) consumer on that subscription, or while a consumed message is part of a pending transaction or has not been acknowledged in the session.
If the active consumer is represented by a
JMSConsumer
then callingclose
on either that object or theJMSContext
used to create it will render the consumer inactive and allow the subscription to be deleted.If the active consumer was created by calling
setMessageListener
on theJMSContext
then callingclose
on theJMSContext
will render the consumer inactive and allow the subscription to be deleted.If the active consumer is represented by a
MessageConsumer
orTopicSubscriber
then callingclose
on that object or on theSession
orConnection
used to create it will render the consumer inactive and allow the subscription to be deleted.- Parameters:
name
- the name used to identify this subscription- Throws:
JMSRuntimeException
- if the session fails to unsubscribe to the durable subscription due to some internal error.InvalidDestinationRuntimeException
- if an invalid subscription name is specified.
-
acknowledge
void acknowledge()Acknowledges all messages consumed by the JMSContext's session.This method is for use when the session has an acknowledgement mode of CLIENT_ACKNOWLEDGE. If the session is transacted or has an acknowledgement mode of AUTO_ACKNOWLEDGE or DUPS_OK_ACKNOWLEDGE calling this method has no effect.
This method has identical behaviour to the
acknowledge
method onMessage
. A client may individually acknowledge each message as it is consumed, or it may choose to acknowledge messages as an application-defined group. In both cases it makes no difference which of these two methods is used.Messages that have been received but not acknowledged may be redelivered.
This method must not be used if the
JMSContext
is container-managed (injected). Doing so will cause aIllegalStateRuntimeException
to be thrown.- Throws:
IllegalStateRuntimeException
-- if the
JMSContext
is closed. - if the
JMSContext
is container-managed (injected)
- if the
JMSRuntimeException
- if the Jakarta Messaging provider fails to acknowledge the messages due to some internal error- See Also:
