WSN doesn't describe any way to do bulk subscription, not even in
BrokeredNotification (with Brokered, you'd still have to tell the broker
about all of the consumers so it could send out the messages it received).
So yes, a custom capability would probably be necessary - just create a
copy of Subscribe that allows for more than one ConsumerEPR, and then use
code like this (error checking removed for brevity):
SubscriptionClient[] subscribe(EndpointReference[] consumers, Filter[]
filters)
{
NotificationProducer wsn =
getResource().getCapability(WsnConstants.PRODUCER_URI);
SubscriptionClient[] subscriptions = new
SubscriptionClient[consumers.length];
for (int n = 0; n < consumers.length; ++n)
subscriptions[n] = wsn.subscribe(consumers[n],
filters[n]);
return subscriptions;
}
