15 Oracle JMS Shared Interfaces

This chapter describes the Java Message Service (JMS) operational interface (shared interfaces) to Oracle Streams Advanced Queuing (AQ).

This chapter contains these topics:

15.1 Oracle Streams AQ JMS Operational Interface: Shared Interfaces

This section discusses Oracle Streams AQ shared interfaces for JMS operations.

This section contains these topics:

15.1.1 Starting a JMS Connection

public void start()
          throws JMSException

AQjmsConnection.start() starts a JMS connection for receiving messages.

15.1.2 Getting a JMS Connection

public oracle.jms.AQjmsConnection getJmsConnection()
                                            throws JMSException

AQjmsSession.getJmsConnection() gets a JMS connection from a session.

15.1.3 Committing All Operations in a Session

public void commit()
           throws JMSException

AQjmsSession.commit() commits all JMS and SQL operations performed in a session.

15.1.4 Rolling Back All Operations in a Session

public void rollback()
              throws JMSException

AQjmsSession.rollback() terminates all JMS and SQL operations performed in a session.

15.1.5 Getting the JDBC Connection from a Session

public java.sql.Connection getDBConnection()
                                    throws JMSException

AQjmsSession.getDBConnection() gets the underlying JDBC connection from a JMS session. The JDBC connection can be used to perform SQL operations as part of the same transaction in which the JMS operations are accomplished.

Example 15-1 Getting Underlying JDBC Connection from JMS Session

java.sql.Connection db_conn;
QueueSession     jms_sess;
db_conn = ((AQjmsSession)jms_sess).getDBConnection();

15.1.6 Getting the OracleOCIConnectionPool from a JMS Connection

public oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleOCIConnectionPool getOCIConnectionPool()

AQjmsConnection.getOCIConnectionPool() gets the underlying OracleOCIConnectionPool from a JMS connection. The settings of the OracleOCIConnectionPool instance can be tuned by the user depending on the connection usage, for example, the number of sessions the user wants to create using the given connection. The user should not, however, close the OracleOCIConnectionPool instance being used by the JMS connection.

Example 15-2 Getting Underlying OracleOCIConnectionPool from JMS Connection

oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleOCIConnectionPool cpool;
QueueConnection jms_conn;
cpool = ((AQjmsConnection)jms_conn).getOCIConnectionPool();

15.6 Receiving a Message Synchronously

You can receive a message synchronously by specifying Timeout or without waiting. You can also receive a message using a transformation:

15.6.1 Using a Message Consumer by Specifying Timeout

public javax.jms.Message receive(long timeout)
                          throws JMSException

This method receives a message using a message consumer by specifying timeout.

Parameter Description

Example 15-6 Using a Message Consumer by Specifying Timeout

TopicConnectionFactory    tc_fact   = null;
TopicConnection           t_conn    = null;
TopicSession              t_sess    = null;
TopicSession              jms_sess;
Topic                     shipped_orders;
int                       myport = 5521;

/* create connection and session */
tc_fact = AQjmsFactory.getTopicConnectionFactory(
   "MYHOSTNAME", "MYSID", myport, "oci8");
t_conn = tc_fact.createTopicConnection("jmstopic", "jmstopic");
jms_sess = t_conn.createTopicSession(true, Session.CLIENT_ACKNOWLEDGE);
shipped_orders = ((AQjmsSession )jms_sess).getTopic(
   "WS", "Shipped_Orders_Topic");

/* create a subscriber, specifying the correct CustomDatumFactory  and
selector */
subscriber1 = jms_sess.createDurableSubscriber(
   shipped_orders, 'WesternShipping', 
   " priority > 1 and tab.user_data.region like 'WESTERN %'",
   false, AQjmsAgent.getFactory());
/* receive, blocking for 30 seconds if there were no messages */
Message = subscriber.receive(30000);

Example 15-7 JMS: Blocking Until a Message Arrives

public BolOrder get_new_order1(QueueSession jms_session)
 {
   Queue            queue;
   QueueReceiver    qrec;
   ObjectMessage    obj_message;
   BolCustomer      customer;
   BolOrder         new_order = null;
   String           state;

   try
   {
   /* get a handle to the new_orders queue */
    queue = ((AQjmsSession) jms_session).getQueue("OE", "OE_neworders_que");
    qrec = jms_session.createReceiver(queue);

    /* wait for a message to show up in the queue */
    obj_message = (ObjectMessage)qrec.receive();
    new_order = (BolOrder)obj_message.getObject();
    customer = new_order.getCustomer();
    state    = customer.getState();
    System.out.println("Order:  for customer " + customer.getName()); 
   }
  catch (JMSException ex)
   {
     System.out.println("Exception: " + ex);
   }
   return new_order;
 }

15.6.2 Using a Message Consumer Without Waiting

public javax.jms.Message receiveNoWait()
                                throws JMSException

This method receives a message using a message consumer without waiting.

 {
   Queue            queue;
   QueueReceiver    qrec;
   ObjectMessage    obj_message;
   BolCustomer      customer;
   BolOrder         new_order = null;
   String           state;

   try
   {
    /* get a handle to the new_orders queue */
    queue = ((AQjmsSession) jms_session).getQueue("OE", "OE_neworders_que");
    qrec = jms_session.createReceiver(queue);

    /* check for a message to show in the queue */
    obj_message = (ObjectMessage)qrec.receiveNoWait();
    new_order = (BolOrder)obj_message.getObject();
    customer = new_order.getCustomer();
    state    = customer.getState();

    System.out.println("Order:  for customer " + customer.getName()); 
   }
   catch (JMSException ex)
   {
     System.out.println("Exception: " + ex);
   }
   return new_order;
 }

15.6.3 Receiving Messages from a Destination Using a Transformation

A transformation can be applied when receiving a message from a queue or topic. The transformation is applied to the message before returning it to JMS application.

The transformation can be specified using the setTransformation() interface of the AQjmsQueueReceiver, AQjmsTopicSubscriber or AQjmsTopicReceiver.

Example 15-9 JMS: Receiving Messages from a Destination Using a Transformation

Assume that the Western Shipping application retrieves messages from the OE_bookedorders_topic. It specifies the transformation OE2WS to retrieve the message as the Oracle object type WS_order. Assume that the WSOrder Java class has been generated by Jpublisher to map to the Oracle object WS.WS_order:

public AQjmsAdtMessage retrieve_bookedorders(TopicSession jms_session)
  AQjmsTopicReceiver  receiver;
  Topic               topic;
  Message             msg = null;

  try
  {
    /* get a handle to the OE_bookedorders_topic */
    topic = ((AQjmsSession)jms_session).getTopic("OE", "OE_bookedorders_topic");

    /* Create a receiver for WShip */
    receiver = ((AQjmsSession)jms_session).createTopicReceiver(
       topic, "WShip, null, WSOrder.getFactory());

    /* set the transformation in the publisher */
    receiver.setTransformation("OE2WS");
    msg = receiver.receive(10);
  }
  catch (JMSException ex)
  {
     System.out.println("Exception :", ex);
  }
       return (AQjmsAdtMessage)msg;
}

15.7 Specifying the Navigation Mode for Receiving Messages

public void setNavigationMode(int mode)
                       throws JMSException

This method specifies the navigation mode for receiving messages. It has the following parameter:

Parameter Description
mode New value of the navigation mode

Example 15-10 Specifying Navigation Mode for Receiving Messages

TopicConnectionFactory    tc_fact   = null;
TopicConnection           t_conn    = null;
TopicSession              t_sess    = null;
TopicSession              jms_sess;
Topic                     shipped_orders;
int                       myport = 5521;

/* create connection and session */
tc_fact = AQjmsFactory.getTopicConnectionFactory(
   "MYHOSTNAME", "MYSID", myport, "oci8");
t_conn = tc_fact.createTopicConnection("jmstopic", "jmstopic");
jms_sess = t_conn.createTopicSession(true, Session.CLIENT_ACKNOWLEDGE);
shipped_orders = ((AQjmsSession )jms_sess).getTopic("WS", "Shipped_Orders_Topic");

/* create a subscriber, specifying the correct CustomDatumFactory and selector */
subscriber1 = jms_sess.createDurableSubscriber(
   shipped_orders, 'WesternShipping', 
   "priority > 1 and tab.user_data.region like 'WESTERN %'", false,
   AQjmsAgent.getFactory());
subscriber1.setNavigationMode(AQjmsConstants.NAVIGATION_FIRST_MESSAGE);

/* get message for the subscriber, returning immediately if there was nomessage */
Message = subscriber.receive();

15.8 Receiving a Message Asynchronously

You can receive a message asynchronously two ways:

15.8.1 Specifying a Message Listener at the Message Consumer

public void setMessageListener(javax.jms.MessageListener myListener)
                        throws JMSException

This method specifies a message listener at the message consumer. It has the following parameter:

Parameter Description
myListener Sets the consumer message listener

Example 15-11 Specifying Message Listener at Message Consumer

TopicSession              jms_sess;
Topic                     shipped_orders;
int                       myport = 5521;

public void close()
          throws JMSException

AQjmsConnection.close() closes a JMS connection and releases all resources allocated on behalf of the connection. Because the JMS provider typically allocates significant resources outside the JVM on behalf of a connection, clients should close them when they are not needed. Relying on garbage collection to eventually reclaim these resources may not be timely enough.

15.12 Troubleshooting

This section contains these topics:

15.12.1 Getting a JMS Error Code

public java.lang.String getErrorCode()

AQjmsException.getErrorCode() gets the error code for a JMS exception.

15.12.2 Getting a JMS Error Number

public int getErrorNumber()

AQjmsException.getErrorNumber() gets the error number for a JMS exception.


Note:

This method will be deprecated in a future release. Use getErrorCode() instead.

15.12.3 Getting an Exception Linked to a JMS Exception

public java.lang.String getLinkString()

AQjmsException.getLinkString() gets the exception linked to a JMS exception. In general, this contains the SQL exception raised by the database.

15.12.4 Printing the Stack Trace for a JMS Exception

public void printStackTrace(java.io.PrintStream s)

AQjmsException.printStackTrace() prints the stack trace for a JMS exception.

15.12.5 Setting an Exception Listener

public void setExceptionListener(javax.jms.ExceptionListener listener)
                          throws JMSException

AQjmsConnection.setExceptionListener() specifies an exception listener for a connection. It has the following parameter:

Parameter Description
listener Exception listener

If an exception listener has been registered, then it is informed of any serious problem detected for a connection. This is accomplished by calling the listener onException() method, passing it a JMS exception describing the problem. This allows a JMS client to be notified of a problem asynchronously. Some connections only consume messages, so they have no other way to learn the connection has failed.

Example 15-13 Specifying Exception Listener for Connection

//register an exception listener
Connection jms_connection;
jms_connection.setExceptionListener(
    new ExceptionListener() {
        public void onException (JMSException jmsException) {
            System.out.println("JMS-EXCEPTION: " + jmsException.toString());
        }
    };
  );

15.12.6 Getting an Exception Listener

public javax.jms.ExceptionListener getExceptionListener()
                                                 throws JMSException

AQjmsConnection.getExceptionListener() gets the exception listener for the connection.

Example 15-14 Getting the Exception Listener for the Connection

//Get the exception listener
Connection jms_connection;
ExceptionListener el = jms_connection.getExceptionListener();
