    public class SimpleMessageListenerContainer

extends AbstractMessageListenerContainer
implements ExceptionListener

Message listener container that uses the plain JMS client API's `MessageConsumer.setMessageListener()` method to create concurrent MessageConsumers for the specified listeners.

NOTE: This class requires a JMS 1.1+ provider, because it builds on the domain-independent API. Use the `SimpleMessageListenerContainer102` subclass for a JMS 1.0.2 provider, e.g. when running on a J2EE 1.3 server.

This is the simplest form of a message listener container. It creates a fixed number of JMS Sessions to invoke the listener, not allowing for dynamic adaptation to runtime demands. Its main advantage is its low level of complexity and the minimum requirements on the JMS provider: Not even the ServerSessionPool facility is required.

See the `AbstractMessageListenerContainer` javadoc for details on acknowledge modes and transaction options.

For a different style of MessageListener handling, through looped `MessageConsumer.receive()` calls that also allow for transactional reception of messages (registering them with XA transactions), see `DefaultMessageListenerContainer`.

Constructor Detail

### SimpleMessageListenerContainer

    public SimpleMessageListenerContainer()

Method Detail

### setPubSubNoLocal

    public void setPubSubNoLocal(boolean pubSubNoLocal)

  Set whether to inhibit the delivery of messages published by its own connection. Default is "false".

  See Also:
    `TopicSession.createSubscriber(javax.jms.Topic, String, boolean)`

### isPubSubNoLocal

    protected boolean isPubSubNoLocal()

  Return whether to inhibit the delivery of messages published by its own connection.

### setConcurrentConsumers

    public void setConcurrentConsumers(int concurrentConsumers)

  Specify the number of concurrent consumers to create. Default is 1.

  Raising the number of concurrent consumers is recommendable in order to scale the consumption of messages coming in from a queue. However, note that any ordering guarantees are lost once multiple consumers are registered. In general, stick with 1 consumer for low-volume queues.

  Do not raise the number of concurrent consumers for a topic. This would lead to concurrent consumption of the same message, which is hardly ever desirable.

### setTaskExecutor

    public void setTaskExecutor(TaskExecutor taskExecutor)

  Set the Spring TaskExecutor to use for executing the listener once a message has been received by the provider.

  Default is none, that is, to run in the JMS provider's own receive thread, blocking the provider's receive endpoint while executing the listener.

  Specify a TaskExecutor for executing the listener in a different thread, rather than blocking the JMS provider, usually integrating with an existing thread pool. This allows to keep the number of concurrent consumers low (1) while still processing messages concurrently (decoupled from receiving!).

  NOTE: Specifying a TaskExecutor for listener execution affects acknowledgement semantics. Messages will then always get acknowledged before listener execution, with the underlying Session immediately reused for receiving the next message. Using this in combination with a transacted session or with client acknowledgement will lead to unspecified results!

  NOTE: Concurrent listener execution via a TaskExecutor will lead to concurrent processing of messages that have been received by the same underlying Session. As a consequence, it is not recommended to use this setting with a `SessionAwareMessageListener`, at least not if the latter performs actual work on the given Session. A standard `MessageListener` will work fine, in general.

    `setConcurrentConsumers(int)`, `SimpleAsyncTaskExecutor`, `WorkManagerTaskExecutor`
