Hello all,
We are using ActiveMQ 5.4.2 with the activemq-cpp library 3.2.4.
Our topology is the following :
* A set of Linux processes (consuming and producing messages) are
connected to a Broker A.
* Another set of Linux processes (consuming and producing messages)
are connected to a Broker B.
* Broker A and Broker B are connected to each other.
We have activated the producer flow control on all queues (we do not use
topics at this point) and all our messages are non-persistent messages.
I believe this is the only deviance from the default configuration.
My question is the following :
Each process may consume messages from different queues.
What is the "best" way for such consumer to indicate that it does not
want to receive any new message from a specific queue ?
(But this consumer must keep receiving messages posted on its other queues).
One solution seems to clear the MessageListener for this specific Consumer :
/getConsumer()->*setMessageListener*(NULL);
/
to not receive any message and then later on set again the
MessageListener when the processing can resume for this queue inside
this process:
/getConsummer()->*setMessageListener*(this);
/
However in our environment it seems that the /*setMessageListener()
API*/ must be executed by a thread which can NOT be the ActiveMQ thread
calling the onMessage callback function.
So is there an easier solution which does not require this extra
application thread ?
Thank you very much for your help,
Sylvain
