This code sample shows an EJB 2.0 message-driven bean description in the deployment descriptor:
<message-driven id="Mdb20"> <ejb-name>Mdb</ejb-name> <ejb-class>ejbs.MdbBean</ejb-class> <transaction-type>Bean</transaction-type> <message-selector>mdbMessage</message-selector> <acknowledge-mode>Auto-acknowledge</acknowledge-mode> <message-driven-destination> <destination-type>javax.jms.Topic</destination-type> <subscription-durability>Durable</subscription-durability> </message-driven-destination> </message-driven>
This code sample shows an EJB 2.1 message-driven bean description in the deployment descriptor:
<message-driven id="Mdb21"> <ejb-name>Foo</ejb-name> <ejb-class>ejbs.FooBean</ejb-class> <messaging-type>javax.jms.MessageListener</messaging-type> <transaction-type>Bean/transaction-type> <message-destination-type>javax.jms.Topic</message-destination-type> <activation-config> <activation-config-property> <activation-config-property-name>destinationType</activation-config-property-name> <activation-config-property-value>javax.jms.Topic</activation-config-property-value> </activation-config-property> <activation-config-property> <activation-config-property-name>subscriptionDurability</activation-config-property-name> <activation-config-property-value>Durable</activation-config-property-value> </activation-config-property> <activation-config-property> <activation-config-property-name>acknowledgeMode</activation-config-property-name> <activation-config-property-value>AutoAcknowledge</activation-config-property-value> </activation-config-property> <activation-config-property> <activation-config-property-name>messageSelector</activation-config-property-name> <activation-config-property-value>fooSelector</activation-config-property-value> </activation-config-property> </activation-config> </transaction-type> </ejb-name> </message-driven>
In EJB 2.1, the specification defines an <activation-config-property> element to be used for defining properties such as the acknowledge mode, message selector, subscription durability, and destination type. When you use a non-JMS messaging type, the wizard allows you to define the <activation-config-property> name and value pairs that you need to use for your bean. For a JMS messaging system, the wizard provides the default configuration properties required by JMS, such as subscriptionDurability and acknowledgeMode.
