Currently today the only option is to bounce the broker unfortunately. Though on the plus side; if you're clients are using failover: then things will just work even if you bounce the broker. You can always deploy the EIP routes in another process; so bouncing it doesn't affect the broker. To avoid bouncing the broker we could experiment with using JavaRebel... http://www.zeroturnaround.com/javarebel/ to auto-detect class changes and redeploying them. Another option is Agent Smith that does a similar thing... https://agentsmith.dev.java.net/ We'd just need to figure out a way to ensure that if a RouteBuilder class is changed, we correctly remove the old one (shutting down the route) and re-applying the new one. I've created an issue to track this... https://issues.apache.org/activemq/browse/AMQ-1495 -- James ------- http://macstrac.blogspot.com/ Open Source Integration http://open.iona.com
