Best way to find out which type of Message was received

Hi

What is the best way to find which type (TextMessage, MapMessage, ...) of
message was received?

I'm currently using a dynamic_cast check to find out which type it is, but
I'm wondering if there's a better way.

Dynamic cast checking is the best generic way. There is some specific  
ActiveMQ ninja stuff you could do - but that is subject to change
