Hi Tim.

In brief: yes, that is what I am thinking, a remote replyto that would work 
across providers after bridging.

I've tried the bridge, and it is very handy. However, what I am thinking of is 
analogous to what you are suggesting: a remote replyto, but since replyto 
(which is a destination) does not apply across providers that does not seem to 
be a possible way to go. I'm thinking this scenario:

(sorry for long post)

1) A JMS client sends a message to a queue on JBossMessaging (messageid: 1) 
expecting a response (on a replyto temp destination)

2) A Bridge configuration picks up message 1 and sends it to a remote provider, 
expecting a reply (the remote message gets a provider-specific messageid, lets 
say "A" to differentiate them). Here we cannot use the same replyto destination 
given in 1) since we are going to another provider.

3) A remote JMS client (not able to talk to JBM) receives the message (A) and 
replies to it to a (for him) local queue with a new message (B), using "A" as 
the correlation id (these legacy clients typically don't obey a replyto header 
anyway, they just send a response where they usually put it. They do, however, 
use the correlationid)

4) A Bridge configuration picks up message B and puts it on the replyto 
destination given by the original JMS client

This scenario is quite common and is often (in the proprietary world) handled 
by bridging products where you configure how to map correlation/replies between 
providers. Now that JBM has a bridge, this kind of functionality could perhaps 
be added to it, making it even more powerful.

If a remote client respected the replyto destination given in the header and 
the remote provider supports temp destinations, the "outgoing" Bridge could see 
that there is a destination in the original request, create a remote temp queue 
and send the message using a replyto with the new (remote) temp queue. However, 
that would require that the "receiving" Bridge configuration would have to be 
able to listen to dynamically created remote queues and still have no 
understanding of where to put the received messages. If two bridge 
configurations were to be "aware" of each other (lets say a bridge xml could 
contain BOTH an in- and outbound route) they could also share this temporary 
queueing, AND know the mapping of messageid's since they get the remote 
provider's messageid after send().

If we cannot use temp destinations, the Bridge (if configured in in/out pairs) 
could still map correlationid's, which would be extremely powerful.
