Hi all,
I want to create my own message class. In reality, my "messages" are XML documents (which may be quite large) and arrive either through file or database gateway listeners. I want to create a composer for each case, which will create a Message object instance that is the same regardless of which gateway the message arrived through.
I started off with the file gateway and created my composer class by extending LocalFileMessageComposer:
public class MyMessageComposer extends LocalFileMessageComposer<File> {
@Override
public Message compose(File f) throws MessageDeliverException {
XMLMessageFactory mf = XMLMessageFactory.getInstance();
Message m = mf.createTextMessage("XML from the file here.");
return m;
}
}What does the XMLMessageFactory have to warrant its name? I mean, would it make any difference if I had used the SerializedMessageFactory? As far as understand what I get to work with in each case is a TextBody, like this:
TextBody messageBody = (TextBody) message.getBody();
String messageXML = messageBody.getText();
Am I missing something? I was inclined to look at this class because my messages are XML documents, but it doesn't seem to offer anything...
