Configure the resource adapter for outbound communication

Configure the resource adapter for outbound communication

To configure outbound communication, define the properties of a ConnectionFactory object and an administered destination object.

Example of using outbound communication
When using outbound communication, an application running in an application server starts a connection to a queue manager, and then sends messages to its queues and receives messages from its queues in a synchronous manner. For example, the following servlet method, doGet(), uses outbound communication:
protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
     throws ServletException, IOException {

...

// Look up ConnectionFactory and Queue objects from the JNDI namespace

     InitialContext ic = new InitialContext();
     ConnectionFactory cf = (javax.jms.ConnectionFactory) ic.lookup("myCF");
     Queue q = (javax.jms.Queue) ic.lookup("myQueue");

// Create and start a connection

     Connection c = cf.createConnection();
     c.start();

// Create a session and message producer

     Session s = c.createSession(false, Session.AUTO_ACKNOWLEDGE);
     MessageProducer pr = s.createProducer(q);

// Create and send a message

     Message m = s.createTextMessage("Hello, World!");
     pr.send(m);

// Create a message consumer and receive the message just sent

     MessageConsumer co = s.createConsumer(q);
     Message mr = co.receive(5000);

// Close the connection

      c.close();
}
When the servlet receives an HTTP GET request, it retrieves a ConnectionFactory object and a Queue object from the JNDI namespace, and uses the objects to send a message to an IBM MQ queue. The servlet then receives the message that it has sent.

Resources needed for outbound communication
To configure outbound communication, define Java EE Connector Architecture (JCA) resources in the following categories:

The properties of a ConnectionFactory object, which the application server uses to create a JMS ConnectionFactory object.
The properties of an administered destination object, which the application server uses to create a JMS Queue object or JMS Topic object.
The way you define these properties depends on the administration interfaces provided by your application server. ConnectionFactory, Queue, and Topic objects created by the application server are bound into a JNDI namespace from where they can be retrieved by an application.
Typically, you define one ConnectionFactory object for each queue manager that applications might need to connect to. You define one Queue object for each queue that applications might need to access in the point-to-point domain. And you define one Topic object for each topic that applications might want to publish or subscribe to. A ConnectionFactory object can be domain independent. Alternatively, it can be domain-specific, a QueueConnectionFactory object for the point-to-point domain or a TopicConnectionFactory object for the publish/subscribe domain.
Tip: With JMS 2.0, a connection factory can be used to create both connections and contexts. As a result, it is possible to have a connection pool associated with a connection factory that contains a mixture of both connections and contexts. It is recommended that a connection factory is only used for creating connections or creating contexts. This ensures that the connection pool for that connection factory only contains objects of a single type, which makes the pool more efficient.

Properties of a ConnectionFactory object
Table 1 lists the properties of a ConnectionFactory object. The application server uses these properties to create a JMS ConnectionFactory object.

Use SYSTEM.DEFAULT.MODEL.QUEUE if both of the following statements are true:

Your application uses a temporary queue that will accept non-persistent messages.
Only one application will create a temporary queue on the queue manager that the ConnectionFactory points to at a time. Note that SYSTEM.DEFAULT.MODEL.QUEUE can only be opened by one application at a time.

Whether a connection to a queue manager uses client mode or bindings mode. If the value BINDINGS_THEN_CLIENT is specified, the resource adapter first tries to make a connection in bindings mode. If this connection attempt fails, the resource adapter then tries to make a client mode connection.
If an activation specification that is running on a WebSphere Application Server for z/OS® system has been configured to use the BINDINGS_THEN_CLIENT transport mode and a previously established connection is broken, then any reconnection attempts by the activation specification first attempt to use the BINDINGS transport mode. If the BINDINGS transport mode connection attempt is unsuccessful, the activation specification subsequently attempts a CLIENT transport mode connection.

IBM MQ classes for JMS continues to search the queue in this way until it reaches the end of the queue, or until the interval of time in milliseconds, as determined by the value of this property, has expired. In each case, IBM MQ classes for JMS returns to the beginning of the queue to continue its search, and a new time interval commences.
