Test if broker is alive?

How do I test if a broker/server is alive in ActiveMQ-CPP? If the server is down and I call cms::Connection::start(), it just hangs. I tried some failover options like this and it doesn't work: -- View this message in context: http://activemq.2283324.n4.nabble.com/Test-if-broker-is-alive-tp4653

Re: Building ActiveMQ-CPP with VC++ 2010 Express and Windows SDK 7.1

Thanks. I figured it out now. Here are the steps in case someone needs it. I am building it with only VC++ 2010 Express and Windows SDK 7.1 installed. The steps are for building ActiveMQ-CPP 3.4.1: 1. Build APR and friends. This is another hassle. The issue is the latest apr-util (1.4.6) doesn't b

Cool. That's good to know. I didn't know std::string is reference counted. I came from some really old implementation of STL and it wasn't like that. Thank you so much. Now I am not so afraid of copying strings. :) -- View this message in context: http://activemq.2283324.n4.nabble.com/ActiveMQ-C

ActiveMQ CPP: Getting text from a Text Message without making temporary

Is there a way to access the text bytes without creating a temporary std::string? I am dealing with some large text messages and try not to allocate memory when making copies. For example, when I get the message: std::string reply = myMessage->getText(); getText() makes a copy of its data on retu
