Background

Destination Options are a way to provide extended configuration options to a NMS consumer without having to extend the NMS API. The options are encoded using URL query syntax in the destination name that the consumer is created on.

Consumer Options

Option Name Default Value Description
consumer.prefetchSize variable The number of message the consumer will [prefetch].
consumer.maximumPendingMessageLimit 0 Use to control if messages for non-durable topics are dropped if a [slow consumer] situation exists.
consumer.noLocal false Same as the noLocal flag on a Topic consumer. Exposed here so that it can be used with a queue.
consumer.dispatchAsync true Should the broker [dispatch messages asynchronously] to the consumer.
consumer.retroactive false Is this a [Retroactive Consumer].
consumer.selector null NMS Selector used with the consumer.
consumer.exclusive false Is this an [Exclusive Consumer].
consumer.priority 0 Allows you to configure a [Consumer Priority].

Example

var queue = session.GetQueue("TEST.QUEUE?consumer.dispatchAsync=false&consumer.prefetchSize=10");
var consumer = session.CreateConsumer(queue);
