The JMSRequestor component is used to send messages to a JMS Topic/Queue and wait till a message reply is received from the same. After sending the message to the Destination set in the CPS, JMSRequestor waits for the response message on the Response Destination. If Response Destination is not specified in the CPS, then a temporary destination is created on which the response message is expected. Users can also specify an Error Destination on which JMSRequestor receives the error message.
JMSRequestor is capable of handling following types of messages:
- Text messages
A TextMessage object's message body contains a java.lang.String object. - Map messages
A MapMessage object's message body contains a set of name-value pairs, where names are String objects, and values are Java primitives. The entries can be accessed sequentially or randomly by name. The order of the entries is undefined. Bytes Message
A BytesMessage object's message body contains a stream of uninterrupted bytes. This message type is for literally encoding a body to match an existing message format.
Points to note
- The only restriction on Map Messages is that this component does not support Objects in Map Messages.
- When adding the Initial Context Factory class for non Fiorano MQ server, the jar file(s) should be added as resource(s) to the JMSAdapters system library.
- JMSRequestor will not process further messages it receives on its input port till it receives the response for the current message.
- If IsDurableSubscriber property is changed to No or Destination Type is changed from Topic to Queue or ClientID/Subscriber ID is changed - the durable subscriptions created earlier should be unsubscribed to avoid persisting messages for the durable subscriber in runtimedata. For more information on unsubscribing, please refer to the DurableSubscribers view section in Chapter 32.3: Connecting to Web Management Tool of FioranoMQ Handbook.

CorrelationId Prefix
Prefix used for setting Correlation ID.
Response Destination Type
Specifies the response destination; choose from the below options:
- Topic
- Queue

Functional Demonstration
Scenario
Sending a request from JMSRequestor4.0 to the JMSReplier in plain text format;if successful, the plain text message gets processed as output from JMSReplier back to JMSRequestor.
Configure both the components as described in the Configuration and Testing section above and use Feeder and Display components to send sample input and check the response respectively.
Figure 5: Event Process demonstrating JMSRequestor and JMSReplier functionalities
Sample Input
Below is the sample generated using the Feeder.
Output
After running the Event Process, output will be displayed in the Display component if the message is successfully sent.
