At this point there is nothing built-in to do that. However it is pretty 
easy to do so yourself, though again at present you need a thread per 
session (as with the old qpid::client API). Just as an example of this 
I've attached some simple sample code of what you could do.

I anticipate adding more in this area as time allows. There is a JIRA 
open, with a very early and raw patch for review, that addresses the 
thread-per-session requirement: 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-3460. Once that work 
completes I imagine a standard, built in framework for dispatching will 
be next.
