Interface TopicConnection

All Superinterfaces:

Connection

All Known Subinterfaces:

XATopicConnection

public interface TopicConnection
extends Connection

A TopicConnection object is an active connection to a publish/subscribe JMS provider. A client uses a TopicConnection object to create one or more TopicSession objects for producing and consuming messages.

A TopicConnection can be used to create a TopicSession, from which specialized topic-related objects can be created. A more general, and recommended approach is to use the Connection object.

The TopicConnection object should be used to support existing code.

Parameters:

transacted - indicates whether the session is transacted

acknowledgeMode - indicates whether the consumer or the client will acknowledge any messages it receives; ignored if the session is transacted. Legal values are Session.AUTO_ACKNOWLEDGE, Session.CLIENT_ACKNOWLEDGE, and Session.DUPS_OK_ACKNOWLEDGE.

Returns:

a newly created topic session

Throws:

JMSException - if the TopicConnection object fails to create a session due to some internal error or lack of support for the specific transaction and acknowledgement mode.

createConnectionConsumer

ConnectionConsumer createConnectionConsumer(Topic topic,
 String messageSelector,
 ServerSessionPool sessionPool,
 int maxMessages)
                                     throws JMSException

Creates a connection consumer for this connection (optional operation). This is an expert facility not used by regular JMS clients.

Parameters:

topic - the topic to access

messageSelector - 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.

sessionPool - the server session pool to associate with this connection consumer

maxMessages - the maximum number of messages that can be assigned to a server session at one time

Returns:

the connection consumer

Throws:

JMSException - if the TopicConnection object fails to create a connection consumer due to some internal error or invalid arguments for sessionPool and messageSelector.

InvalidDestinationException - if an invalid topic is specified.

InvalidSelectorException - if the message selector is invalid.

createDurableConnectionConsumer

ConnectionConsumer createDurableConnectionConsumer(Topic topic,
 String subscriptionName,
 String messageSelector,
 ServerSessionPool sessionPool,
 int maxMessages)
                                            throws JMSException
