Apache CXF-JMS 3.0和Spring配置

Question

I am trying to configure JMS connection caching and consumer concurrency with Spring to perform some load tests. The application context xml is below.

According to CXF documentation, from 3.0, a ConnectionFactoryFeature should be used instead of a JMSConfigFeature , which is deprecated ( http://cxf.apache.org/docs/jms-transport.html ). I was following the examples provided at http://cxf.apache.org/scalable-cxf-applications-using-jms-transport.html , but the documentation there seems to refer to CXF versions earlier than 3.0, because JMSConfiguration class in 3.0 does not have caching or concurrency capabilites (no setters/getters). So, I was trying to use Spring to achieve the same result, but without success. The very same documentation refers to Spring DefaultMessageListenerContainer as a container for caching and concurrency configuration, but I was not able to find examples of this with CXF integration, only for pure JMS. Also, DefaultMessageListenerContainer has a setter to register a JMS MessageListener . In case of CXF, I found that that listener is created and managed by CXF runtime and is not provided provided by the application.

Any advice?

Thanks!

Answer 1

Currently you can not set concurrent consumers for CXF 3. I did some performance tests with ActiveMQ and found the performance with CXF 3 is equal to CXF 2 or even better.

The reason is that we now use a MessageListener approach instead of the polling that spring did.

See my website for the performance tests .

Answer 2

We need to be able to tune concurrent and maximum consumers so we can handle our message load. The constraint is in speed of message processing by our applications; CXF is not the bottleneck. Are there plans to re-introduce these parameters in CXF? Can we configure CXF to use a configured DefaultMessageListenerContainer?
