Force delay in message driven beans. Is it possible?

[Pablo Fernandez]

Hi guys, can somebody help me with something?

When a message reaches the beginning of a queue, is it possible to force an X amount of time before it gets processed? I don't want to do it by coding into it, but I was wondering if the queue can be configured somehow.

I need to ensured a fixed amount of time between the moment the client transaction sends the message to the queue and the moment it actually gets processed.

Can it be done?

thanks in advance,

pol

You should use setTimeToDeliver(timeToDeliver), but the implementation depends on the JMS server.

Is that api part of the jms spec? I think it is weblogic specific.

I found that it is weblogic specific, but I'm using jboss and got a way to do the same thing.
Something like this:

 jmsMsg.setLongProperty("JMS_JBOSS_SCHEDULED_DELIVERY", timeToDeliver) 

Anyway, thanks for your answers
