> Key: QPID-4543
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-4543
> Project: Qpid
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: C++ Broker
> Affects Versions: 0.18
> Environment: QMF
> Reporter: Fraser Adams
> Assignee: Ted Ross
> Priority: Minor
>
> QMF queueMoveMessages method returns "InvalidParameter" exception when there
> are simply no messages available to move from the source queue - this is
> confusing.
> Other queue management commands (such as purge and reroute on the queue
> object) don't object when there are no messages to move but queueMoveMessages
> barfs with InvalidParameter.
> This is inconsistent and it's pretty unhelpful, I spent about an hour
> checking over my code and looking through the broker code thinking I'd messed
> up the arguments. When I finally got round to actually adding some messages
> "just to see" it actually worked. Perhaps I should have tried that sooner,
> but as I say purge and reroute don't behave this way so it was fairly
> reasonable to assume I'd done something wrong...
> I personally think that queueMoveMessages should behave the same as purge and
> reroute and attempt to move whatever. It should only send back
> InvalidParameter if one of the parameters is actually invalid. It could be
> argued that trying to move zero messages is invalid, but a qty value of 0
> means "all messages" and all of zero is zero.
