MDB replacing by servlet

[henk]

Hi,

I was thinking of implementing something like this :

a controller servlet listens to different jms queues. Depending on the message, an action is performed by a certain class. This class reports back to the controller which sends a response back on a queue. In fact, what I am doing here is sort of implementing a message-driven bean with a servlet.
Is this a good idea ? Are there simpler ways ? I don't want to use mdb's, that's clear. Does Spring have some nice classes that could help me here ?

thanks

Henk,

What JMS implementation are you using? ActiveMQ has support for message driven POJOs using Spring. Plus Spring has something similar in the sandbox which you could try out.

I'm using the JBoss jms, but this is not fixed. I will take a look at activemq. Where can I find the Spring sandbox ?
Note that I would like to use it in Tomcat (a webcontainer), not standalone.
