JMS Connection Factories deployment

[nono7777]

Hello,

With JBoss AS 6, it was possible to deploy connection factories as well as JMS destinations using a XML file.

It seems than since JBoss AS 7 and wildfly 8 only Queues and Topics can be deployed like this, and it is not possible anymore for Connection Factories, am I right ?

or is there any way to deploy connection factories ?

I tried copying this xml in deployements folder this but it does not work for connection factoy:

<messaging-deployment xmlns="urn:jboss:messaging-deployment:1.0">

  <hornetq-server>

  <jms-connection-factories>

  <connection-factory name="InVmConnectionFactory">

  <connectors>

  <connector-ref connector-name="in-vm" />

  </connectors>

  <entries>

  <entry name="java:jboss/exported/jms/ConnectionFactory" />

  <entry name="jms/ConnectionFactory" />

  </entries>

  </connection-factory>

  </jms-connection-factories>

  <jms-destinations>

  <jms-queue name="TestQueue">

  <entry name="jms/Queue" />

  <entry name="java:jboss/exported/jms/Queue" />

  </jms-queue>

  </jms-destinations>

  </hornetq-server>

</messaging-deployment>

Best regards

As far as I know the only way to deploy a connection factory via XML is using the standalone*.xml or domain.xml files.

From the Java EE 7 specification:

EE.5.18.4 JMS Connection Factory Resource Definition

An application may define a JMS ConnectionFactory resource.

The JMS ConnectionFactory resource may be defined in any of the JNDI

namespaces described in Section EE.5.2.2, “Application Component Environment Namespaces”.

A JMS ConnectionFactory resource may be defined in a web module, EJB module, application client module, or application deployment descriptor using the jms-connection-factory element.

For example:

    <jms-connection-factory>

        <description>

Sample JMS ConnectionFactory definition

</description>

<name>java:app/MyJMSCF</name> <class-name>javax.jms.QueueConnectionFactory</class-name> <resource-adapter>myJMSRA</resource-adapter> <user>scott</user>

<password>secret</password> <client-id>MyId</client-id> <property>

          <name>Property1</name>

          <value>10</value>

        </property>

        <property>

          <name>Property2</name>

<value>20</value>

</property> <transactional>false</transactional> <max-pool-size>30</max-pool-size> <min-pool-size>20</min-pool-size>

</jms-connection-factory>

A JMS ConnectionFactory resource may also be defined using the JMSConnectionFactoryDefinition annotation on a container-managed class, such as a servlet or enterprise bean class.

For example:

@JMSConnectionFactoryDefinition( name="java:app/MyJMSCF", className="javax.jms.QueueConnectionFactory", resourceAdapter="myJMSRA")
