Last I heard you were an MQ dev at IBM, not an end user.  The first part of that sentence does make sense though - you're basically referring to JCA 1.5 section 12.5.2 I think. If you can say that with a straight face you've not been watching enough youtube :-) As far an I can tell from a quick poke though the JCA code, it does not call ResourceAdapter.getXAResources(javax.resource.spi.ActivationSpec[] activationSpecs)  I'm guessing that's an implementation decision based on the assumption that a call to ManagedConnection.getXAResource().recover() will return equivalent information instead. -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [http://community.jboss.org/message/551026#551026] Start a new discussion in JCA at Community [http://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
