QueueImpl.FilterMessageHandler vs NullFilterMessageHandler

[saltnlight5]

Hi,

I failed to see the reason to use FilterMessageHandler instead of NullFilterMessageHandler inside QueueImpl.java. Can someone explains why use FilterMessageHandler at all? It seems to have nothing to do with "filtered consumer" other than create a stored msg iterator from the queue, which creates problems when queue is trying to deliver prioritized messages. Can't we replace FilterMessageHandler directly with NullFilterMessageHandler?

Thanks,

Z

Never mind on this question. I see the reason why the stored iterator is needed to loop messages for filtered consumer now.
