Okay, from what I can tell, when using the ra activation spec driven consumer construction, the ConsumerInfo options where getting lost.
Upon removing the errant 'this.' and rebuilding the activemq-core module, things are now working for me. snippet from org.apache.activemq.ActiveMQConnection.java: public ConnectionConsumer createConnectionConsumer(Destination destination, String messageSelector, ServerSessionPool sessionPool, int maxMessages, boolean noLocal) throws JMSException { checkClosedOrFailed(); ensureConnectionInfoSent(); ConsumerId consumerId = createConsumerId(); ConsumerInfo info = new ConsumerInfo(consumerId); info.setDestination(ActiveMQMessageTransformation.transformDestination(destination)); info.setSelector(messageSelector); info.setPrefetchSize(maxMessages); info.setNoLocal(noLocal); info.setDispatchAsync(dispatchAsync); // Allows the options on the destination to configure the consumerInfo if( info.getDestination().getOptions()!=null ) { HashMap options = new HashMap(info.getDestination().getOptions()); // IntrospectionSupport.setProperties(-->this.info<--, options, "consumer."); //JE 07.02.01 removed the 'this' from info. seems to fix the honoring of consumer.exclusive option for a jencks jcaconnectior managed consumer IntrospectionSupport.setProperties(info, options, "consumer."); } return new ActiveMQConnectionConsumer(this, sessionPool, info); } -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/How-can-I-configure-an-%22Exclusive-Consumer%22-queue-with-a-Jencks-JCAConnector--tf3159712.html#a8770428 Sent from the ActiveMQ - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
