public interface JMSContext extends AutoCloseable
JMSContext
is the main interface in the simplified JMS API
introduced for JMS 2.0. This combines in a single object the functionality of
two separate objects from the JMS 1.1 API: a Connection
and a
Session
.
When an application needs to send messages it use the
createProducer
method to create a JMSProducer
which
provides methods to configure and send messages. Messages may be sent either
synchronously or asynchronously.
When an application needs to receive messages it uses one of several
createConsumer
or createDurableConsumer
methods to
create a JMSConsumer
. A JMSConsumer
provides
methods to receive messages either synchronously or asynchronously.
In terms of the JMS 1.1 API a JMSContext
should be thought of as
representing both a Connection
and a Session
.
Although the simplified API removes the need for applications to use those
objects, the concepts of connection and session remain important. A
connection represents a physical link to the JMS server and a session
represents a single-threaded context for sending and receiving messages.
A JMSContext
may be created by calling one of several
createContext
methods on a ConnectionFactory
. A
JMSContext
that is created in this way is described as being
application-managed. An application-managed JMSContext
must be closed when no longer needed by calling its close
method.
Applications running in the Java EE web and EJB containers may alternatively
inject a JMSContext
into their application using the
@Inject
annotation. A JMSContext
that is created in
this way is described as being container-managed. A
container-managed JMSContext
will be closed automatically by
the container.
Applications running in the Java EE web and EJB containers are not permitted to create more than one active session on a connection so combining them in a single object takes advantage of this restriction to offer a simpler API.
However applications running in a Java SE environment or in the Java EE
application client container are permitted to create multiple active sessions
on the same connection. This allows the same physical connection to be used
in multiple threads simultaneously. Such applications which require multiple
sessions to be created on the same connection should use one of the
createContext
methods on the ConnectionFactory
to
create the first JMSContext
and then use the
createContext
method on JMSContext
to create
additional JMSContext
objects that use the same connection. All
these JMSContext
objects are application-managed and must be
closed when no longer needed by calling their close
method.

method.

- if the JMS provider fails to return the client ID for the
JMSContext's connection due to some internal error.void setClientID(String clientID)
The preferred way to assign a JMS client's client identifier is for it to
be configured in a client-specific ConnectionFactory
object
and transparently assigned to the Connection
object it
creates.
Alternatively, a client can set the client identifier for the
JMSContext's connection using a provider-specific value. The facility
to set its client identifier explicitly is not a mechanism for overriding
the identifier that has been administratively configured. It is provided
for the case where no administratively specified identifier exists. If
one does exist, an attempt to change it by setting it must throw an
IllegalStateRuntimeException
. If a client sets the client
identifier explicitly, it must do so immediately after it creates the
JMSContext and before any other action on the JMSContext is taken. After
this point, setting the client identifier is a programming error that
should throw an IllegalStateRuntimeException
.
The purpose of the client identifier is to associate the JMSContext's connection and its objects with a state maintained on behalf of the client by a provider. The only such state identified by the JMS API is that required to support durable subscriptions.
If another connection with the same clientID
is already
running when this method is called, the JMS provider should detect the
duplicate ID and throw an InvalidClientIDException
.
This method must not be used in a Java EE web or EJB application. Doing
so may cause a JMSRuntimeException
to be thrown though this
is not guaranteed.
This method must not be used if the JMSContext
is
container-managed (injected). Doing so will cause a

void setExceptionListener(ExceptionListener listener)
If a JMS provider detects a serious problem with a connection, it informs
the connection's ExceptionListener
, if one has been
registered. It does this by calling the listener's
onException
method, passing it a JMSRuntimeException
object describing the problem.
An exception listener allows a client to be notified of a problem asynchronously. Some connections only consume messages, so they would have no other way to learn their connection has failed.
A connection serializes execution of its ExceptionListener
.
A JMS provider should attempt to resolve connection problems itself before it notifies the client of them.
This method must not be used in a Java EE web or EJB application. Doing
so may cause a JMSRuntimeException
to be thrown though this
is not guaranteed.

some internal error.stop()
void stop()
start
method. When the connection is stopped, delivery to all the connection's
message consumers is inhibited: synchronous receives block, and messages
are not delivered to message listeners.
Stopping a connection has no effect on its ability to send messages. A
call to stop
on a connection that has already been stopped
is ignored.
A call to stop
must not return until delivery of messages
has paused. This means that a client can rely on the fact that none of
its message listeners will be called and that all threads of control
waiting for receive
calls to return will not return with a
message until the connection is restarted. The receive timers for a
stopped connection continue to advance, so receives may time out while
the connection is stopped.
If message listeners are running when stop
is invoked, the
stop
call must wait until all of them have returned before
it may return. While these message listeners are completing, they must
have the full services of the connection available to them.
However if the stop method is called from a message listener on its own
JMSContext
, or any other JMSContext
that uses the same connection,
then it will either fail and throw a javax.jms.IllegalStateRuntimeException
,
or it will succeed and stop the connection, blocking until all other message
listeners that may have been running have returned.
Since two alternative behaviors are permitted in this case, applications
should avoid calling stop
from a message listener on its own JMSContext
, or
any other JMSContext
that uses the same connection, because this is not
portable.
For the avoidance of doubt, if an exception listener for the JMSContext's
connection is running when stop
is invoked, there is no
requirement for the stop
call to wait until the exception
listener has returned before it may return.
This method must not be used in a Java EE web or EJB application. Doing
so may cause a JMSRuntimeException
to be thrown though this
is not guaranteed.

void close()
This closes the underlying session and any underlying producers and consumers. If there are no other active (not closed) JMSContext objects using the underlying connection then this method also closes the underlying connection.
Since a provider typically allocates significant resources outside the JVM on behalf of a connection, clients should close these resources when they are not needed. Relying on garbage collection to eventually reclaim these resources may not be timely enough.
Closing a connection causes all temporary destinations to be deleted.
When this method is invoked, it should not return until message
processing has been shut down in an orderly fashion. This means that all
message listeners that may have been running have returned, and that all
pending receives have returned. A close terminates all pending message
receives on the connection's sessions' consumers. The receives may return
with a message or with null, depending on whether there was a message
available at the time of the close. If one or more of the connection's
sessions' message listeners is processing a message at the time when
connection close
is invoked, all the facilities of the
connection and its sessions must remain available to those listeners
until they return control to the JMS provider.
However if the close method is called from a message listener on its own
JMSContext
, then it will either fail and throw a
javax.jms.IllegalStateRuntimeException
, or it will succeed and close the
JMSContext
. If close
succeeds and the session mode of the
JMSContext
is set to AUTO_ACKNOWLEDGE
, the current message
will still be acknowledged automatically when the onMessage call completes.
Since two alternative behaviors are permitted in this case, applications
should avoid calling close from a message listener on its own
JMSContext
because this is not portable.
This method must not return until any incomplete asynchronous send operations for this JMSContext have been completed and any CompletionListener callbacks have returned. Incomplete sends should be allowed to complete normally unless an error occurs.
For the avoidance of doubt, if an exception listener for the JMSContext's
connection is running when close
is invoked, there is no
requirement for the close
call to wait until the exception
listener has returned before it may return.
Closing a connection causes any of its sessions' transactions in progress
to be rolled back. In the case where a session's work is coordinated by
an external transaction manager, a session's commit
and
rollback
methods are not used and the result of a closed
session's work is determined later by the transaction manager.
Closing a connection does NOT force an acknowledgment of client-acknowledged sessions.
Invoking the acknowledge
method of a received message from a
closed connection's session must throw an
IllegalStateRuntimeException
. Closing a closed connection must NOT
throw an exception.
A CompletionListener callback method must not call close on its own JMSContext. Doing so will cause an IllegalStateRuntimeException to be thrown.
This method must not be used if the JMSContext
is
container-managed (injected). Doing so will cause a
IllegalStateRuntimeException
to be thrown.

The use of provider-specific queue names in an application may render the

Note that this method simply creates an object that encapsulates the name
of a queue. It does not create the physical queue in the JMS provider.
JMS does not provide a method to create the physical queue, since this
would be specific to a given JMS provider. Creating a physical queue is

The use of provider-specific topic names in an application may render the
application non-portable. Portable applications are recommended to not
use this method but instead look up an administratively-defined
Topic
object using JNDI.
Note that this method simply creates an object that encapsulates the name
of a topic. It does not create the physical topic in the JMS provider.
JMS does not provide a method to create the physical topic, since this
would be specific to a given JMS provider. Creating a physical topic is
provider-specific and is typically an administrative task performed by an
administrator, though some providers may create them automatically when
needed. The one exception to this is the creation of a temporary topic,
which is done using the createTemporaryTopic

A durable subscription is used by an application which needs to receive all the messages published on a topic, including the ones published when there is no active consumer associated with it. The JMS provider retains a record of this durable subscription and ensures that all messages from the topic's publishers are retained until they are delivered to, and acknowledged by, a consumer on this durable subscription or until they have expired.
A durable subscription will continue to accumulate messages until it is
deleted using the unsubscribe
method.
This method may only be used with unshared durable subscriptions. Any
durable subscription created using this method will be unshared. This
means that only one active (i.e. not closed) consumer on the subscription
may exist at a time. The term "consumer" here means a
TopicSubscriber
, MessageConsumer
or JMSConsumer
object in any client.
An unshared durable subscription is identified by a name specified by the client and by the client identifier, which must be set. An application which subsequently wishes to create a consumer on that unshared durable subscription must use the same client identifier.
If an unshared durable subscription already exists with the same name and
client identifier, and the same topic, message selector and

already active (i.e. not closed) on the durable subscription then
this method creates a JMSConsumer

on the existing subscription.
A non-durable shared subscription is used by a client which needs to be
able to share the work of receiving messages from a topic subscription
amongst multiple consumers. A non-durable shared subscription may
therefore have more than one consumer. Each message from the subscription
will be delivered to only one of the consumers on that subscription. Such
a subscription is not persisted and will be deleted (together with any
undelivered messages associated with it) when there are no consumers on
it. The term "consumer" here means a MessageConsumer

This method deletes the state being maintained on behalf of the subscriber by its provider.
A durable subscription is identified by a name specified by the client and by the client identifier if set. If the client identifier was set when the durable subscription was created then a client which subsequently wishes to use this method to delete a durable subscription must use the same client identifier.
It is erroneous for a client to delete a durable subscription while there is an active (not closed) consumer on that subscription, or while a consumed message is part of a pending transaction or has not been acknowledged in the session.
If the active consumer is represented by a JMSConsumer
then
calling close
on either that object or the
JMSContext
used to create it will render the consumer
inactive and allow the subscription to be deleted.
If the active consumer was created by calling
setMessageListener
on the JMSContext
then
calling close
on the JMSContext
will render the
consumer inactive and allow the subscription to be deleted.
If the active consumer is represented by a MessageConsumer
or TopicSubscriber
then calling close
on that
object or on the Session
or Connection
used to
create it will render the consumer inactive and allow the subscription to
be deleted.

This method is for use when the session has an acknowledgement mode of CLIENT_ACKNOWLEDGE. If the session is transacted or has an acknowledgement mode of AUTO_ACKNOWLEDGE or DUPS_OK_ACKNOWLEDGE calling this method has no effect.
This method has identical behaviour to the acknowledge
method on Message
. A client may individually acknowledge
each message as it is consumed, or it may choose to acknowledge messages
as an application-defined group. In both cases it makes no difference
which of these two methods is used.
Messages that have been received but not acknowledged may be redelivered.
This method must not be used if the JMSContext
is
container-managed (injected). Doing so will cause a
IllegalStateRuntimeException
to be thrown.
