Roundrobin between multiple consumers

Hi all,

I would like to setup a system where a Topic or Queue (not sure which to use
yet) can have multiple consumers and roundrobin messages between the
consumers with only one consumer getting any given message. Is this
something that already exists in ActiveMQ or do I have to build that
functionality on top of ActiveMQ?

Kind thanks,
Serge

Its exposed to any JMS client application; whether using the JMS API
directly or some abstraction on top

Sepends on what you need to do.

If you are just writing POJOs and want to hide the JMS API stuff you
might wanna use Lingo

Hi James,

Thanks, is this sort of functionality exposed in Mule when using JMS as the
transport? I am still trying to evaluate if there is any reason for me to
look at using mule instead of straight out JMS/ActiveMQ. 


Thanks,
Serge

Thats something that already exists today; just use multiple consumers
on a queue and thats pretty much how things behave. If you want to add
explicit round robin dispatching, we have one of those...
