Hi all - I have a requirement for asynch messaging between a Java producer (Windows or Linux, not sure which) and a Ruby/Rails/ActiveMessaging consumer, which is on FreeBSD. I expect to use Stomp. I'm reporting what I've found so far, and asking for advice.
I've created a prototype and have been working with it for a few days. It implements a single message queue, with the producer and broker on JDK 1.5 and the consumer on Rails1.2.3/ActiveMessaging, all on the same Windows XP Pro instance. Each time I run the Java app, it sends ten text messages to the queue, then terminates. On the Ruby side, I use the poller script that comes with the ActiveMessaging code base, which just waits for a message, prints it, and then goes back to waiting. I'm consuming messages using ActiveMessaging's stomp adapter. Here's what I've encountered: - with a 5.0-SNAPSHOT broker (from 7/19), I get pretty uniformly good results, although I do see stack traces on the broker's console from time to time. - with a 4.1.1 broker, I've seen good results, except when I run the producer while the consumer isn't running, and subsequently start the consumer. In that scenario, the consumer never prints anything about the first message; it prints the next nine, though. If the consumer is already running when I run the consumer, it prints all ten. I've tried using both 4.1.1 and 5.0-SNAPSHOT libraries on the producer and get the same result, as long as I'm using the 4.1.1 broker. I haven't started chasing down this strange bug yet, but I'd like to hear any thoughts you might have. I've also started trying to get things running on FreeBSD; I'm using FreeBSD 6.0-RELEASE, Diablo JDK 1.5.0_07-b01, and ActiveMQ 5.0-SNAPSHOT. When I run "mvn clean install", I get some failed tests, and some stack traces (which might be fine). I've attached a http://www.nabble.com/file/p11839828/install.log log from the run . Here some quick details; The following tests fail: MultiBrokersMultiClientsTest TemporaryDestinationToFromNameTest TaskRunnerTest TwoMulticastDiscoveryBrokerTopicSendReceiveTest MultipleTestsWithEmbeddedBrokerTest TopicClusterTest QueueSubscriptionTest NetworkReconnectTest ReconnectTest MultiBrokersMultiClientsUsingTcpTest The following tests give me stack traces: ConnectionFailedException FailoverUriTest InactivityMonitorTest JMSConsumerTest I also get a "could not load class" error for each attempt the build makes to generate HTML documentation. I'm hoping someone can shed some light on these errors.
