[esb-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Work started: (JBESB-452) Refactor Notifiers

Refactor Notifiers ------------------ Key: JBESB-452 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBESB-452 Project: JBoss ESB Issue Type: Task Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: Rosetta Affects Versions: 4.0 Environment: any Reporter: Kurt Stam Assigned To: Daniel Bevenius Priority: Critical Fix For: 4.2 Time Spent: 4 hours Remaining Estimate: 0 minutes These comments are based on the JMS notifiers but will probably apply to the other notifiers as well: 1. The notifiers should be more like listeners where you get one (or more instances). Until they get recycled when there is a config change. Right now the JMS onces connected and disconnect with every message, which causes stress on the JMS provider when running in high load mode. 2. They should get their 'provider' configuration from the configuration, just like the listeners. Right now you cannot connect to other JMS providers. 3. The notifiers should get hooked up to the same life cycle management as the listener infrastructure. In other words: They really should be 'inverse gateways', the model is broken and there shouldn't be a distinction between notifying and sending a message via couriers+listeners. The fact we support different transports (and in different ways) for notifiers than for the "core" ESB is just wrong.
