37.2.2. Getting Notified of Connection Failure
JMS provides a standard mechanism for getting notified asynchronously of connection failure:
java.jms.ExceptionListener
. For more information about ExceptionListener, refer to the Oracle javax.jms Javadoc.
The HornetQ core API also provides a similar feature in the form of the class
org.hornet.core.client.SessionFailureListener
Any JMS
ExceptionListener
or Core SessionFailureListener
instance will always be called by HornetQ in the event of connection failure, irrespective of whether the connection was successfully failed over, reconnected or reattached.
