like it! I guess it's already implemented by now :)

sending_large_f.html
As I mentioned on the comments, I'd like to extend this a little to
support both out-of-band transfer (e.g. its basically a message with a
URL in it to that the user can download the file from some remote
destination) or the file is actually sent over the JMS network, so it
can act as a facade to the existing JMS Streams feature...
http://incubator.apache.org/activemq/jms-streams.html
So am thinking from a client API perspective they do one of the
following...
// send a message out of band...
FileMessage message = session.createRemoteFileMessage(new
URL("http:///foo.com/bar.jpg"));
// send a local file over the JMS network
FileMessage message = session.createLocalFileMessage(new
File("~/myfiles/bar.jpg"));
then for consumers...
if (message instanceof FileMessage) {
FileMessage fileMessage = (FileMessage) message;
InputStream in = fileMessage.getInputStream();
// lets read the file...
// or lets force the file to be manifested as a local file so we can
work directly on the file instead
URL url = fileMessage.getURL();
// we can now open the file as many times as we like...
}
Thoughts?
