ActiveMQ Durable Topics / Persistent Messages

[radha_mit <Ra...@ivycomptech.com>]

Hi,

 In addition, as every message can potentially have many consumers, a
message
cannot be deleted from the store until it has been delivered to every
interested  

THis is the line given in chapter 4 of ActiveMQ in Action book for topic. 

Lets assume that , we have 4 subscribers listening to a durable topic. out
of them, three are live at that moment and 1 subscriber is down.  A message
comes to the durable topic and the 3 live subscribers get them.

Now, after starting the 4th one, will the 4th one also get the message. 
If yes, till what time will the message will be there in the topic ?

Hi,

it will stay until it's consumed or it expires.

Cheers
