You can create a queue programmatically by invoking the "createQueue" JMX method on the ServerPeer MBean. Upon the method completion, your new queue will be accessible in JNDI and also through the JMX interface, similarly to any regular ("deployed") queue. The queue is handled like any other regular queue, so if the server crashes, the queue's state can be recovered from the database, but your program will have to somehow remember that it created the queue dynamically, and re-create it programmatically after recovery. The messaging server doesn't handle this for you. It is, however, something relatively simply to implement at application level. To see an example of how this works, take a look at DestinationManagerTest.testCreateQueueProgramatically() View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3973130#...
