I noticed that an open context maintains a connection to JNDI so I wondered how I can restore this connection like when the connection to the router was unavailable for some time. Can a valid Context object be reconstructed with a call to: Context context=new InitialContext(Hashtable) ? Along that line, a TopicConnection's connection and a TopicSession's temp queues will not be valid anymore either,so I wonder if either of them throw an exception when the connection is lost ?? This would be a nice way of finding out that the router is unavailable :) S.
