Aneesh Sebastian [https://community.jboss.org/people/aneeshsebastian] created the discussion "How to list or monitor messages in a Queue which is already under use" To view the discussion, visit: https://community.jboss.org/message/720125#720125 -------------------------------------------------------------- I have a requirement to monitor a JBoss messaging queue, where users should be able to delete posted messages dynamically. The application has a MDPOJO registered and is up and running at server start up. My requirement is, users should be able to delete a posted message any time he wishes. I tried below proto codes : *Option1* public void listAllJMS_Messages()     {         try {             ObjectName objectName=new ObjectName("jboss.messaging.destination:name=XXX,service=Queue");             List ls = (List) server.invoke(objectName, "listMessages" , null, null);             List<javax.jms.Message> messages=(List<javax.jms.Message>)server.invoke(objectName, "listAllMessages" , null, null);             int count=0;             for(javax.jms.Message msg : messages) {                 System.out.println((++count)+"t"+msg.getJMSMessageID());                 if(msg.getJMSType() != null && msg.getJMSType().equalsIgnoreCase("Text")) {                     TextMessage text = (TextMessage)msg;                     System.out.println(text.getText());                 }             }         } catch (Exception e) {             // TODO Auto-generated catch block             e.printStackTrace();         }         // System.out.println((++count)+"t"+msg.getText());     } *Option2*     public void listMsg() {         String destinationName = "queue/XXX";          Context ic = null;          ConnectionFactory cf = null;          Connection connection =  null;         try {             ic = getInitialContext();              cf = (ConnectionFactory)ic.lookup("/ConnectionFactory");              Queue queue = (Queue)ic.lookup(destinationName);              connection = cf.createConnection();              Session session = connection.createSession(false, Session.AUTO_ACKNOWLEDGE);              QueueBrowser qbrowser = session.createBrowser(queue);             Enumeration<?> qamsgs = qbrowser.getEnumeration();             while (qamsgs.hasMoreElements()){                 Message msg = (Message)qamsgs.nextElement();             }             connection.start();          }         catch(Exception e)          {              System.out.println(e);         }          finally          {                       if(ic != null)              {                  try                  {                      ic.close();                  }                  catch(Exception e1)                  {                      System.out.println(e1);                 }              }          }      } In both the options,messages are getting listed in case of no message consumers at present.If have a live message consumer MDB, then list is returned as null. I defintely need MDB consumer up and running.But still need to monitor messages.I should be able to do below : 1. List messages] 2. Delete a particular message 3. Change priority -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [https://community.jboss.org/message/720125#720125] Start a new discussion in JBoss Messaging at Community [https://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
