I'm a little confuse about the connection between the gatewa

If the gateway produces an ESB aware message can it directly pass the message to an action pipeline, or must it place the message in a queue were an ESB message aware listener must pick it up? If the gateway must route to message to queue where an ESB aware listener must pick it up, how and where is that connection between the gateway and listener configured?

The gateway will place the ESB message onto a separate queue to be processed by the service, it does not execute the pipeline directly.

At the moment we configure both together in the jboss-esb.xml file, through the service listeners, but this will eventually change. We will be removing all direct associations between services and transports.

I should have said transport, not queue, as it is not restricted to JMS.

Let me make sure I understand. Whenever you have a gateway listener you must have an ESB-aware listener. That suggest to me that the gateway places its output message into the queue configured for input to the ESB-aware listener. Is that correct? I'm trying to determine how the gateway knows where to output its message.
