JMS Subscriptions...

[jdepaul]

Question on how to architect something with JMS - please forgive my ignorance of JMS funcitonality, I've got a lot to learn here:

Need to have clients subscribing to VERY SPECIFIC events (clientid=123; location=prtny;action=gate-in...many other parameters)

Quesiton 1 - Can JMS client retrieve events based on such specific event criteria? Could someone point me to an example on how to configure that?

Question 2 - Can JMS subscriptions be managed from the application? That is, adding new subscribers and removing old subscribers?

Since my initial post, I found how to use Message Selectors with JMS with message consumers.

Question: what are some alternatives to Message Driven Beans as consumers of messages? I've read a little about Message Driven POJOs - is this proven technology worth pursuing or still in its infancy. Opinions, other viable options to MDBs?

I spoken to a few people who are successfully using message driven pojos. I would say it's a useful and exciting alternative to MDBs. I would google it as there are lots of dicussions out there about this.
