[jboss-user] [JBoss Messaging] - Re: Message priority does not seem to work

[ydzsidemiik]

It occurred to me last night to, as you suggest, try SlowConsumers in conjunction with setting the priority on the MessageProducer. This morning, I find that it gives me exactly the behavior I desire.

So, it turns out this whole affair was all due to a failure to RTFM on my part. I could direct at Sun some impolite comments about the value of a javax.jms.Message.setJMSPriority(int) method which is specified to do nothing, but I was so sure that this wasn't my fault that I'll have to eat a lot of headwear to atone, so I better to get started.

My requirement was only that higher priority messages be processed reasonably promptly, not necessarily with any hard deadlines or strict ordering guarantees. I'm satisfied now that I have that, and my app isn't all that portable in the first place. ;)

Thanks for your helpful comments.
