Topic Hierarchy

[hosierdm]

Greetings,

For some reason, I thought it was possible to create Topic hierarchies like topic/foo, topic/foo/bar, topic/foo/baz, etc. The point being to have a client listening on topic/foo so that he could hear all messages going to both topic/foo/bar and topic/foo/baz. However, I seem to have trouble configuring my destinations to do this, which leads me to two possible conclusions: 1) This isn't possible and I was misinformed, or 2) I am doing it wrong.

I referenced this thread for help:
http://www.jboss.org/modules/bb/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&t= first simply tried doing this:


and then:


to get a subtopic of system under netexpert, but I got:
[ServiceController] Problem starting service jboss.mq.destination:service=Topic,name=netexpert/system java.lang.ClassCastException....and the same for netexpert/gateway.

So, in the above metioned thread, Adrian mentions to use the element instead. Therefore I tried doing this:


<depends optional-attribute-name="DestinationManager">jboss.mq:service=DestinationManager
topic/netexpert/system


but I got the same exact Exception.

So, is there a correct way to do this? Or am I out of luck?

Thanks for the consideration.

This isn't possible and you were misinformed

Damn! Oh well, thanks for the reply. Seems like a pretty logical thing to want to do though.

What like:
mkdir parent
touch parent/child
touch parent/child/grandchild

error: child is not a directory
