Interface TopicConnection

All Superinterfaces:
Connection
All Known Subinterfaces:
XATopicConnection

public interface TopicConnection
extends Connection

A TopicConnection object is an active connection to a publish/subscribe JMS provider. A client uses a TopicConnection object to create one or more TopicSession objects for producing and consuming messages.

A TopicConnection can be used to create a TopicSession, from which specialized topic-related objects can be created. A more general, and recommended approach is to use the Connection object.

The TopicConnection object should be used to support existing code.

Returns:
a newly created topic session
Throws:
JMSException - if the TopicConnection object fails to create a session due to some internal error or lack of support for the specific transaction and acknowledgement mode.

createConnectionConsumer

ConnectionConsumer createConnectionConsumer(Topic topic,
                                            String messageSelector,
                                            ServerSessionPool sessionPool,
                                            int maxMessages)
                                            throws JMSException
Creates a connection consumer for this connection (optional operation). This is an expert facility not used by regular JMS clients.

Parameters:
topic - the topic to access
messageSelector - only messages with properties matching the message selector expression are delivered. A value of null or an empty string indicates that there is no message selector for the message consumer.
sessionPool - the server session pool to associate with this connection consumer
maxMessages - the maximum number of messages that can be assigned to a server session at one time
Returns:
the connection consumer
Throws:
JMSException - if the TopicConnection object fails to create a connection consumer due to some internal error or invalid arguments for sessionPool and messageSelector.
InvalidDestinationException - if an invalid topic is specified.
InvalidSelectorException - if the message selector is invalid.

createDurableConnectionConsumer

ConnectionConsumer createDurableConnectionConsumer(Topic topic,
                                                   String subscriptionName,
                                                   String messageSelector,

                                                   int maxMessages)
                                                   throws JMSException
