JMS Namespace Support

Spring provides an XML namespace for simplifying JMS configuration. To use the JMS namespace elements, you need to reference the JMS schema, as the following example shows:spring-doc.cn

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
	xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
	xmlns:jms="http://www.springframework.org/schema/jms" (1)
	xsi:schemaLocation="
		http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans
		https://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd
		http://www.springframework.org/schema/jms
		https://www.springframework.org/schema/jms/spring-jms.xsd">

	<!-- bean definitions here -->

</beans>
1 Referencing the JMS schema.

The namespace consists of three top-level elements: <annotation-driven/>, <listener-container/> and <jca-listener-container/>. <annotation-driven/> enables the use of annotation-driven listener endpoints . <listener-container/> and <jca-listener-container/> define shared listener container configuration and can contain <listener/> child elements. The following example shows a basic configuration for two listeners:spring-doc.cn

<jms:listener-container>

	<jms:listener destination="queue.orders" ref="orderService" method="placeOrder"/>

	<jms:listener destination="queue.confirmations" ref="confirmationLogger" method="log"/>

</jms:listener-container>

The preceding example is equivalent to creating two distinct listener container bean definitions and two distinct MessageListenerAdapter bean definitions, as shown in Using MessageListenerAdapter. In addition to the attributes shown in the preceding example, the listener element can contain several optional ones. The following table describes all of the available attributes:spring-doc.cn

Table 1. Attributes of the JMS <listener> element
Attribute Description

idspring-doc.cn

A bean name for the hosting listener container. If not specified, a bean name is automatically generated.spring-doc.cn

destination (required)spring-doc.cn

The destination name for this listener, resolved through the DestinationResolver strategy.spring-doc.cn

ref (required)spring-doc.cn

The bean name of the handler object.spring-doc.cn

methodspring-doc.cn

The name of the handler method to invoke. If the ref attribute points to a MessageListener or Spring SessionAwareMessageListener, you can omit this attribute.spring-doc.cn

response-destinationspring-doc.cn

The name of the default response destination to which to send response messages. This is applied in case of a request message that does not carry a JMSReplyTo field. The type of this destination is determined by the listener-container’s response-destination-type attribute. Note that this applies only to a listener method with a return value, for which each result object is converted into a response message.spring-doc.cn

subscriptionspring-doc.cn

The name of the durable subscription, if any.spring-doc.cn

selectorspring-doc.cn

An optional message selector for this listener.spring-doc.cn

concurrencyspring-doc.cn

The number of concurrent sessions or consumers to start for this listener. This value can either be a simple number indicating the maximum number (for example, 5) or a range indicating the lower as well as the upper limit (for example, 3-5). Note that a specified minimum is only a hint and might be ignored at runtime. The default is the value provided by the container.spring-doc.cn

The <listener-container/> element also accepts several optional attributes. This allows for customization of the various strategies (for example, taskExecutor and destinationResolver) as well as basic JMS settings and resource references. By using these attributes, you can define highly-customized listener containers while still benefiting from the convenience of the namespace.spring-doc.cn

You can automatically expose such settings as a JmsListenerContainerFactory by specifying the id of the bean to expose through the factory-id attribute, as the following example shows:spring-doc.cn

<jms:listener-container connection-factory="myConnectionFactory"
		task-executor="myTaskExecutor"
		destination-resolver="myDestinationResolver"
		transaction-manager="myTransactionManager"
		concurrency="10">

	<jms:listener destination="queue.orders" ref="orderService" method="placeOrder"/>

	<jms:listener destination="queue.confirmations" ref="confirmationLogger" method="log"/>

</jms:listener-container>

The following table describes all available attributes. See the class-level javadoc of the AbstractMessageListenerContainer and its concrete subclasses for more details on the individual properties. The javadoc also provides a discussion of transaction choices and message redelivery scenarios.spring-doc.cn

Table 2. Attributes of the JMS <listener-container> element
Attribute Description

container-typespring-doc.cn

The type of this listener container. The available options are default, simple, default102, or simple102 (the default option is default).spring-doc.cn

container-classspring-doc.cn

A custom listener container implementation class as a fully qualified class name. The default is Spring’s standard DefaultMessageListenerContainer or SimpleMessageListenerContainer, according to the container-type attribute.spring-doc.cn

factory-idspring-doc.cn

Exposes the settings defined by this element as a JmsListenerContainerFactory with the specified id so that they can be reused with other endpoints.spring-doc.cn

connection-factoryspring-doc.cn

A reference to the JMS ConnectionFactory bean (the default bean name is connectionFactory).spring-doc.cn

task-executorspring-doc.cn

A reference to the Spring TaskExecutor for the JMS listener invokers.spring-doc.cn

destination-resolverspring-doc.cn

A reference to the DestinationResolver strategy for resolving JMS Destination instances.spring-doc.cn

message-converterspring-doc.cn

A reference to the MessageConverter strategy for converting JMS Messages to listener method arguments. The default is a SimpleMessageConverter.spring-doc.cn

error-handlerspring-doc.cn

A reference to an ErrorHandler strategy for handling any uncaught exceptions that may occur during the execution of the MessageListener.spring-doc.cn

destination-typespring-doc.cn

The JMS destination type for this listener: queue, topic, durableTopic, sharedTopic, or sharedDurableTopic. This potentially enables the pubSubDomain, subscriptionDurable and subscriptionShared properties of the container. The default is queue (which disables those three properties).spring-doc.cn

response-destination-typespring-doc.cn

The JMS destination type for responses: queue or topic. The default is the value of the destination-type attribute.spring-doc.cn

client-idspring-doc.cn

The JMS client ID for this listener container. You must specify it when you use durable subscriptions.spring-doc.cn

cachespring-doc.cn

The cache level for JMS resources: none, connection, session, consumer, or auto. By default (auto), the cache level is effectively consumer, unless an external transaction manager has been specified — in which case, the effective default will be none (assuming Jakarta EE-style transaction management, where the given ConnectionFactory is an XA-aware pool).spring-doc.cn

acknowledgespring-doc.cn

The native JMS acknowledge mode: auto, client, dups-ok, or transacted. A value of transacted activates a locally transacted Session. As an alternative, you can specify the transaction-manager attribute, described later in table. The default is auto.spring-doc.cn

transaction-managerspring-doc.cn

A reference to an external PlatformTransactionManager (typically an XA-based transaction coordinator, such as Spring’s JtaTransactionManager). If not specified, native acknowledging is used (see the acknowledge attribute).spring-doc.cn

concurrencyspring-doc.cn

The number of concurrent sessions or consumers to start for each listener. It can either be a simple number indicating the maximum number (for example, 5) or a range indicating the lower as well as the upper limit (for example, 3-5). Note that a specified minimum is just a hint and might be ignored at runtime. The default is 1. You should keep concurrency limited to 1 in case of a topic listener or if queue ordering is important. Consider raising it for general queues.spring-doc.cn

prefetchspring-doc.cn

The maximum number of messages to load into a single session. Note that raising this number might lead to starvation of concurrent consumers.spring-doc.cn

receive-timeoutspring-doc.cn

The timeout (in milliseconds) to use for receive calls. The default is 1000 (one second). -1 indicates no timeout.spring-doc.cn

back-offspring-doc.cn

Specifies the BackOff instance to use to compute the interval between recovery attempts. If the BackOffExecution implementation returns BackOffExecution#STOP, the listener container does not further try to recover. The recovery-interval value is ignored when this property is set. The default is a FixedBackOff with an interval of 5000 milliseconds (that is, five seconds).spring-doc.cn

recovery-intervalspring-doc.cn

Specifies the interval between recovery attempts, in milliseconds. It offers a convenient way to create a FixedBackOff with the specified interval. For more recovery options, consider specifying a BackOff instance instead. The default is 5000 milliseconds (that is, five seconds).spring-doc.cn

phasespring-doc.cn

The lifecycle phase within which this container should start and stop. The lower the value, the earlier this container starts and the later it stops. The default is Integer.MAX_VALUE, meaning that the container starts as late as possible and stops as soon as possible.spring-doc.cn

Configuring a JCA-based listener container with the jms schema support is very similar, as the following example shows:spring-doc.cn

<jms:jca-listener-container resource-adapter="myResourceAdapter"
		destination-resolver="myDestinationResolver"
		transaction-manager="myTransactionManager"
		concurrency="10">

	<jms:listener destination="queue.orders" ref="myMessageListener"/>

</jms:jca-listener-container>

The following table describes the available configuration options for the JCA variant:spring-doc.cn

Table 3. Attributes of the JMS <jca-listener-container/> element
Attribute Description

factory-idspring-doc.cn

Exposes the settings defined by this element as a JmsListenerContainerFactory with the specified id so that they can be reused with other endpoints.spring-doc.cn

resource-adapterspring-doc.cn

A reference to the JCA ResourceAdapter bean (the default bean name is resourceAdapter).spring-doc.cn

activation-spec-factoryspring-doc.cn

A reference to the JmsActivationSpecFactory. The default is to autodetect the JMS provider and its ActivationSpec class (see DefaultJmsActivationSpecFactory).spring-doc.cn

destination-resolverspring-doc.cn

A reference to the DestinationResolver strategy for resolving JMS Destinations.spring-doc.cn

message-converterspring-doc.cn

A reference to the MessageConverter strategy for converting JMS Messages to listener method arguments. The default is SimpleMessageConverter.spring-doc.cn

destination-typespring-doc.cn

The JMS destination type for this listener: queue, topic, durableTopic, sharedTopic. or sharedDurableTopic. This potentially enables the pubSubDomain, subscriptionDurable, and subscriptionShared properties of the container. The default is queue (which disables those three properties).spring-doc.cn

response-destination-typespring-doc.cn

The JMS destination type for responses: queue or topic. The default is the value of the destination-type attribute.spring-doc.cn

client-idspring-doc.cn

The JMS client ID for this listener container. It needs to be specified when using durable subscriptions.spring-doc.cn

acknowledgespring-doc.cn

The native JMS acknowledge mode: auto, client, dups-ok, or transacted. A value of transacted activates a locally transacted Session. As an alternative, you can specify the transaction-manager attribute described later. The default is auto.spring-doc.cn

transaction-managerspring-doc.cn

A reference to a Spring JtaTransactionManager or a jakarta.transaction.TransactionManager for kicking off an XA transaction for each incoming message. If not specified, native acknowledging is used (see the acknowledge attribute).spring-doc.cn

concurrencyspring-doc.cn

The number of concurrent sessions or consumers to start for each listener. It can either be a simple number indicating the maximum number (for example 5) or a range indicating the lower as well as the upper limit (for example, 3-5).
