Deploy an enterprise application to use message-driven beans with listener ports
Define the listener ports for the application. For each message-driven bean in the application, configure the deployment attributes to match the listener port definitions. Install the application, specifying the name of the listener port to use for late responses.
Listener ports are stabilized. For more information, read the article on stabilized features. You should only deploy the application against a listener port for compatability with existing message-driven bean applications. Otherwise, you should deploy the application against JCA 1.5-compliant resources.
If we have existing message-driven beans that use the WebSphere MQ messaging provider (or a compliant third-party JMS provider) with listener ports, and instead to use EJB 3 message-driven beans with listener ports, these new beans can continue to use the same messaging provider.
This task assumes that we have an EAR file, which contains an enterprise application developed as a message-driven bean, that can be deployed in WAS.
Procedure
- Define the listener ports for the application, by using the console as described in Create a new listener port.
- For each message-driven bean in the application, configure the deployment attributes to match the listener port definitions, as described in Configure deployment attributes for a message-driven bean against a listener port.
- Install the application, as described in Install enterprise application files with the console.
When you install the application, you are prompted to specify the name of the listener port that the application is to use for late responses. Select the listener port, then click OK.
