The message class below is javax.jms.Message
The reciever is javax.jms.QueueReceiver.
Is this way of reading a Queue grossly inefficient for a system that would recieve roughly 40,000 straight mq messages in a 24 hour period. I'm asking in reference to the reciever.recieve(1) and the while loop. The system.out message of course would be removed.
The messages would be about 40 characters in length.
| Code: |
while (!isStopped()) {
Message m = receiver.receive(1);
if (m != null) {
if (m instanceof TextMessage) {
message = (TextMessage) m;
System.out.println(
Messages.getString("JMS_TEST.MESSAGE_RECIEVED_PREFIX") + message.getText()); //$NON-NLS-1$
if (message.getText().equalsIgnoreCase(Messages.getString("JMS_TEST.STOP")) //$NON-NLS-1$
|| message.getText().equalsIgnoreCase(Messages.getString("JMS_TEST.EXIT"))) { //$NON-NLS-1$
stopLoop();
}
} else {
System.out.println(
Messages.getString("JMS_TEST.MESSAGE_NON_TEXT_RECIEVED")); //$NON-NLS-1$
stopLoop();
}
}

I would like to see a MessageListener pattern applied here.
Remember as well to add a ConnectionErrorListener.
Enjoy  |

A caveat to this is that if you want a graceful shutdown, you may have to resort to your first idea. That way you can be in a while (!stop) loop, and inside you do receive(x). Then every x millis you can be checking to see if you should gracefully stop.
This is what I do, but i have x set to 15 seconds...saying that I'm willing to wait 15 seconds (7 on average) for a graceful shutdown to happen.

You can also do a gracefull shutdown with a message listener.
a) stop the connection
b) set the MessageListener to null on the Consumer
c) set the ExceptionListener to null
d) release all JMS resources

I actually had some trouble doing this because I was trying to shut things down from one thread while the listener thread was trying to process a message. I probably screwed it up because I was under the gun, so I punted and went back to the loop thing.
