Hey, I'm writing a special broker plugin that makes it so that a client can only have a single login (per username) to a network of brokers at any one time. To do this I am making the plugin send a message to all the other instances of the plugin on the network of brokers (using a topic) and if they have the user logged in they kick them off.
To do this though I need the plugin to subscribe as a producer and consumer on my special topic, and I'm having some trouble. Is there a right way to do this? I've seen how the AdvisoryBroker and BrokerSupport send messages, is that the way to do it? I can't seem to find any code that actually works like a consumer though and receives messages on the ActiveMQ.Advisory topics, I assume they exist? Basically, what is the right way for a BrokerPlugin to send and receive messages in their implementation methods? Currently I am actually calling BrokerFilter.getVmConnectorUri() when my plugin is instantiated, appending "?waitForStart=60000&create=false" to the URI and then creating a new ActiveMQConnectionFactory from that, and then creating a consumer and a producer sessions and threads. However I'm having some trouble with the new VM broker it starts, so I was hoping there might be a better way. -- Mats Henrikson Software Engineer SunGard Kiodex Think before you print
