JMS QueueRequestor Example

If you have not already done so, prepare the broker distribution before running the example.

To run the example, simply type mvn verify from this directory, or mvn -PnoServer verify if you want to start and create the broker manually.

This example shows you how to use a QueueRequestor with ActiveMQ Artemis.

JMS is mainly used to send messages asynchronously so that the producer of a message is not waiting for the result of the message consumption. However, there are cases where it is necessary to have a synchronous behavior: the code sending a message requires a reply for this message before continuing its execution. A QueueRequestor facilitates this use case by providing a simple request/reply abstraction on top of JMS.

The example consists in two classes:

  • TextReverserService: A JMS MessageListener which consumes text messages and sends replies containing the reversed text.

  • QueueRequestorExample: A JMS Client which uses a QueueRequestor to send text requests to a queue and receive replies with the reversed text in a synchronous fashion.
