Please submit a patch if you think it'll help. Wanna create a patch against
trunk?
> Allow a way to add/configure Broker Plugins with Spring
> -------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: AMQ-1516
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/activemq/browse/AMQ-1516
> Project: ActiveMQ
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Broker
> Affects Versions: 4.1.1
> Environment: Ubuntu Linux, Windows XP
> Reporter: Saqib Rasul
>
> Currently the only way to add broker plugins is via some XBean magic. This
> has the following drawbacks:
> - a special compile-time step is required to get XBean to know we have a
> plugin
> - forces one to use Maven
> - There is lacking examples how to setup a new Broker Plugin
> I would suggest we have a Spring way of starting and configuring an activeMQ
> Broker which also allows one to specify the Broker Plugins. I would recommend
> something like this:
> {code:xml}
> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
> <beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans";
> xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
> xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans
> http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-2.0.xsd";>
> <!-- the bean that starts ActiveMQ -->
> <bean id="activeMqStarter" class="ActiveMqStarter" init-method="startIt"
> lazy-init="false">
> <property name="properties" ref="activeMqProps" />
> </bean>
> <!-- the properties for the ActiveMQ Broker -->
> <bean id="activeMqProps" class="ActiveMqStarterProps">
> <property name="memoryLimit" value="20 Mb" />
> <property name="deleteAllMessagesOnStartup" value="true" />
> <property name="useJmx" value="true" />
> <property name="persistent" value="false" />
> <property name="useShutdownHook" value="true" />
> <property name="connectors">
> <list>
> <value>tcp://localhost:61616</value>
> </list>
> </property>
> <property name="plugins">
> <list>
> <ref bean="myFirstPlugin" />
> <ref bean="myLastPlugin" />
> </list>
> </property>
> </bean>
> </beans>
> {code}
> This would make it much easier to develop and deploy ActiveMQ Broker Plugins
> as it reduces the dependency to XBean and the additional compile-time step.
> I could volunteer to make such classes as a patch if you think this is worth
> it.
