[jboss-user] [Messaging, JMS & JBossMQ] - Re: Recover Exception after Rollback in JMS

Hello Elias, Thanks for your answer. I had considered some similar approaches like the one you propose. However, if I include a non-transactional component in the design, there is the possibility to introduce a race condition. Imagine this scenario: 1) The JMS message is delivered for the first time, and starts transaction T1 to process Object A. 2) During the process, a business error is detected and an exception with the message is thrown. 3) As this exception is thrown, somewhere a handler sends also a non-transacitonal message to the process queue. 4) The JMS message is redelivered in T2, and the MDB has to flag this process as failed (and maybe update Object A to a new state?). 5) At the same time, the second message is processed in T3, that has to update Object A to attach the error message to it. In this hypothetical case, it would be very unlikely that this race condition materializes to a real threat, because we would take care that T2 and T3 will not update the same objects. However, this is not valid for a more general case. Maybe if I don't find a better solution I will have to settle for this.
