## Interface JMSProducer

-     public interface JMSProducer

  A `JMSProducer` is a simple object used to send messages on behalf of a `JMSContext`. An instance of `JMSProducer` is created by calling the `createProducer` method on a `JMSContext`. It provides various `send` methods to send a message to a specified destination. It also provides methods to allow message send options, message properties and message headers to be specified prior to sending a message or set of messages.

  Message send options may be specified using one or more of the following methods: `setDeliveryMode`, `setPriority`, `setTimeToLive`, `setDeliveryDelay`, `setDisableMessageTimestamp`, `setDisableMessageID` and `setAsync`.

  Message properties may be may be specified using one or more of nine `setProperty` methods. Any message properties set using these methods will override any message properties that have been set directly on the message.

  Message headers may be specified using one or more of the following methods: `setJMSCorrelationID`, `setJMSCorrelationIDAsBytes`, `setJMSType` or `setJMSReplyTo`. Any message headers set using these methods will override any message headers that have been set directly on the message.

  All the above methods return the `JMSProducer` to allow method calls to be chained together, allowing a fluid programming style. For example:

  `context.createProducer().setDeliveryMode(DeliveryMode.NON_PERSISTENT).setTimeToLive(1000).send(destination, message);`

  Instances of `JMSProducer` are intended to be lightweight objects which can be created freely and which do not consume significant resources. This interface therefore does not provide a `close` method.

  Since:
    JMS 2.0
  Version:

    - #### setDisableMessageID

          JMSProducer setDisableMessageID(boolean value)

      Specifies whether message IDs may be disabled for messages that are sent using this `JMSProducer`

      Since message IDs take some effort to create and increase a message's size, some JMS providers may be able to optimise message overhead if they are given a hint that the message ID is not used by an application. By calling this method, a JMS application enables this potential optimisation for all messages sent using this `JMSProducer`. If the JMS provider accepts this hint, these messages must have the message ID set to null; if the provider ignores the hint, the message ID must be set to its normal unique value.

      Message IDs are enabled by default.

      Parameters:
        `value` - indicates whether message IDs may be disabled
      Returns:
        this `JMSProducer`
      Throws:
        `JMSRuntimeException` - if the JMS provider fails to set message ID to disabled due to some internal error.
      See Also:
        `getDisableMessageID()`

    - #### getDisableMessageID

          boolean getDisableMessageID()

      Gets an indication of whether message IDs are disabled.
      Returns:
        an indication of whether message IDs are disabled
      Throws:
        `JMSRuntimeException` - if the JMS provider fails to determine if message IDs are disabled due to some internal error.
      See Also:
        `setDisableMessageID(boolean)`

    - #### setDisableMessageTimestamp

          JMSProducer setDisableMessageTimestamp(boolean value)

      Specifies whether message timestamps may be disabled for messages that are sent using this `JMSProducer`. Since timestamps take some effort to create and increase a message's size, some JMS providers may be able to optimise message overhead if they are given a hint that the timestamp is not used by an application. By calling this method, a JMS application enables this potential optimisation for all messages sent using this `JMSProducer`. If the JMS provider accepts this hint, these messages must have the timestamp set to zero; if the provider ignores the hint, the timestamp must be set to its normal value.

      Message timestamps are enabled by default.

      Parameters:
        `value` - indicates whether message timestamps may be disabled
      Returns:
        this `JMSProducer`
      Throws:
        `JMSRuntimeException` - if the JMS provider fails to set timestamps to disabled due to some internal error.
      See Also:
        `getDisableMessageTimestamp()`

    - #### getDisableMessageTimestamp

          boolean getDisableMessageTimestamp()

      Gets an indication of whether message timestamps are disabled.
      Returns:
        an indication of whether message timestamps are disabled
      Throws:
        `JMSRuntimeException` - if the JMS provider fails to determine if timestamps are disabled due to some internal error.
      See Also:
        `setDisableMessageTimestamp(boolean)`

    - #### setDeliveryMode

          JMSProducer setDeliveryMode(int deliveryMode)

      Specifies the delivery mode of messages that are sent using this `JMSProducer`

      Delivery mode is set to `PERSISTENT` by default.

      Parameters:
        `deliveryMode` - the message delivery mode to be used; legal values are `DeliveryMode.NON_PERSISTENT` and `DeliveryMode.PERSISTENT`
      Returns:
        this `JMSProducer`
      Throws:
        `JMSRuntimeException` - if the JMS provider fails to set the delivery mode due to some internal error.
      See Also:
        `getDeliveryMode()`, `DeliveryMode.NON_PERSISTENT`, `DeliveryMode.PERSISTENT`, `Message.DEFAULT_DELIVERY_MODE`

    - #### getDeliveryMode

          int getDeliveryMode()

      Returns the delivery mode of messages that are sent using this `JMSProducer`
      Returns:
        the message delivery mode
      Throws:
        `JMSRuntimeException` - if the JMS provider fails to get the delivery mode due to some internal error.
      See Also:
        `setDeliveryMode(int)`

    - #### setPriority

          JMSProducer setPriority(int priority)

      Specifies the priority of messages that are sent using this `JMSProducer`

      The JMS API defines ten levels of priority value, with 0 as the lowest priority and 9 as the highest. Clients should consider priorities 0-4 as gradations of normal priority and priorities 5-9 as gradations of expedited priority. Priority is set to 4 by default.

      Parameters:
        `priority` - the message priority to be used; must be a value between 0 and 9
      Returns:
        this `JMSProducer`
      Throws:
        `JMSRuntimeException` - if the JMS provider fails to set the priority due to some internal error.
      See Also:
        `getPriority()`, `Message.DEFAULT_PRIORITY`

    - #### getPriority

          int getPriority()

      Return the priority of messages that are sent using this `JMSProducer`

      Returns:
        the message priority
      Throws:
        `JMSRuntimeException` - if the JMS provider fails to get the priority due to some internal error.
      See Also:
        `setPriority(int)`

    - #### setTimeToLive

          JMSProducer setTimeToLive(long timeToLive)

      Specifies the time to live of messages that are sent using this `JMSProducer`. This is used to determine the expiration time of a message.

      The expiration time of a message is the sum of the message's time to live and the time it is sent. For transacted sends, this is the time the client sends the message, not the time the transaction is committed.

      Clients should not receive messages that have expired; however, JMS does not guarantee that this will not happen.

      A JMS provider should do its best to accurately expire messages; however, JMS does not define the accuracy provided. It is not acceptable to simply ignore time-to-live.

      Time to live is set to zero by default, which means a message never expires.

      Parameters:
        `timeToLive` - the message time to live to be used, in milliseconds; a value of zero means that a message never expires.
      Returns:
        this `JMSProducer`
      Throws:
        `JMSRuntimeException` - if the JMS provider fails to set the time to live due to some internal error.
      See Also:
        `getTimeToLive()`, `Message.DEFAULT_TIME_TO_LIVE`

    - #### getTimeToLive

          long getTimeToLive()

      Returns the time to live of messages that are sent using this `JMSProducer`.
      Returns:
        the message time to live in milliseconds; a value of zero means that a message never expires.
      Throws:
        `JMSRuntimeException` - if the JMS provider fails to get the time to live due to some internal error.
      See Also:
        `setTimeToLive(long)`

    - #### setDeliveryDelay

          JMSProducer setDeliveryDelay(long deliveryDelay)

      Sets the minimum length of time in milliseconds that must elapse after a message is sent before the JMS provider may deliver the message to a consumer.

      For transacted sends, this time starts when the client sends the message, not when the transaction is committed.

      deliveryDelay is set to zero by default.

      Parameters:
        `deliveryDelay` - the delivery delay in milliseconds.
      Returns:
        this `JMSProducer`
      Throws:
        `JMSRuntimeException` - if the JMS provider fails to set the delivery delay due to some internal error.
      See Also:
        `getDeliveryDelay()`, `Message.DEFAULT_DELIVERY_DELAY`

    - #### getDeliveryDelay

          long getDeliveryDelay()

      Gets the minimum length of time in milliseconds that must elapse after a message is sent before the JMS provider may deliver the message to a consumer.
      Returns:
        the delivery delay in milliseconds.
      Throws:
        `JMSRuntimeException` - if the JMS provider fails to get the delivery delay due to some internal error.
      See Also:
        `setDeliveryDelay(long)`

    - #### setAsync

          JMSProducer setAsync(CompletionListener completionListener)

      Specifies whether subsequent calls to `send` on this `JMSProducer` object should be synchronous or asynchronous. If the specified `CompletionListener` is not null then subsequent calls to `send` will be asynchronous. If the specified `CompletionListener` is null then subsequent calls to `send` will be synchronous. Calls to `send` are synchronous by default.

      If a call to `send` is asynchronous then part of the work involved in sending the message will be performed in a separate thread and the specified `CompletionListener` will be notified when the operation has completed.

      When the message has been successfully sent the JMS provider invokes the callback method `onCompletion` on the `CompletionListener` object. Only when that callback has been invoked can the application be sure that the message has been successfully sent with the same degree of confidence as if the send had been synchronous. An application which requires this degree of confidence must therefore wait for the callback to be invoked before continuing.

      The following information is intended to give an indication of how an asynchronous send would typically be implemented.

      In some JMS providers, a normal synchronous send involves sending the message to a remote JMS server and then waiting for an acknowledgement to be received before returning. It is expected that such a provider would implement an asynchronous send by sending the message to the remote JMS server and then returning without waiting for an acknowledgement. When the acknowledgement is received, the JMS provider would notify the application by invoking the `onCompletion` method on the application-specified `CompletionListener` object. If for some reason the acknowledgement is not received the JMS provider would notify the application by invoking the `CompletionListener`'s `onException` method.

      In those cases where the JMS specification permits a lower level of reliability, a normal synchronous send might not wait for an acknowledgement. In that case it is expected that an asynchronous send would be similar to a synchronous send: the JMS provider would send the message to the remote JMS server and then return without waiting for an acknowledgement. However the JMS provider would still notify the application that the send had completed by invoking the `onCompletion` method on the application-specified `CompletionListener` object.

      It is up to the JMS provider to decide exactly what is performed in the calling thread and what, if anything, is performed asynchronously, so long as it satisfies the requirements given below:

      Quality of service: After the send operation has completed successfully, which means that the message has been successfully sent with the same degree of confidence as if a normal synchronous send had been performed, the JMS provider must invoke the `CompletionListener`'s `onCompletion` method. The `CompletionListener` must not be invoked earlier than this.

      Exceptions: If an exception is encountered during the call to the `send` method then an appropriate exception should be thrown in the thread that is calling the `send` method. In this case the JMS provider must not invoke the `CompletionListener`'s `onCompletion` or `onException` method. If an exception is encountered which cannot be thrown in the thread that is calling the `send` method then the JMS provider must call the `CompletionListener`'s `onException` method. In both cases if an exception occurs it is undefined whether or not the message was successfully sent.

      Message order: If the same `JMSContext` is used to send multiple messages then JMS message ordering requirements must be satisfied. This applies even if a combination of synchronous and asynchronous sends has been performed. The application is not required to wait for an asynchronous send to complete before sending the next message.

      Close, commit or rollback: If the `close` method is called on the `JMSContext` then the JMS provider must block until any incomplete send operations have been completed and all `CompletionListener` callbacks have returned before closing the object and returning. If the session is transacted (uses a local transaction) then when the `JMSContext`'s `commit` or `rollback` method is called the JMS provider must block until any incomplete send operations have been completed and all `CompletionListener` callbacks have returned before performing the commit or rollback. Incomplete sends should be allowed to complete normally unless an error occurs.

      A `CompletionListener` callback method must not call `close`, `commit` or `rollback` on its own `JMSContext`. Doing so will cause the `close`, `commit` or `rollback` to throw an `IllegalStateRuntimeException`.

      Restrictions on usage in Java EE This method must not be used in a Java EE EJB or web container. Doing so may cause a `JMSRuntimeException` to be thrown though this is not guaranteed.

      Message headers JMS defines a number of message header fields and message properties which must be set by the "JMS provider on send". If the send is asynchronous these fields and properties may be accessed on the sending client only after the `CompletionListener` has been invoked. If the `CompletionListener`'s `onException` method is called then the state of these message header fields and properties is undefined.

      Restrictions on threading: Applications that perform an asynchronous send must confirm to the threading restrictions defined in JMS. This means that the session may be used by only one thread at a time.

      Setting a `CompletionListener` does not cause the session to be dedicated to the thread of control which calls the `CompletionListener`. The application thread may therefore continue to use the session after performing an asynchronous send. However the `CompletionListener`'s callback methods must not use the session if an application thread might be using the session at the same time.

      Use of the `CompletionListener` by the JMS provider: A session will only invoke one `CompletionListener` callback method at a time. For a given `JMSContext`, callbacks (both `onCompletion` and `onException`) will be performed in the same order as the corresponding calls to the `send` method. A JMS provider must not invoke the `CompletionListener` from the thread that is calling the `send` method.

      Restrictions on the use of the Message object: Applications which perform an asynchronous send must take account of the restriction that a `Message` object is designed to be accessed by one logical thread of control at a time and does not support concurrent use.

      After the `send` method has returned, the application must not attempt to read the headers, properties or body of the `Message` object until the `CompletionListener`'s `onCompletion` or `onException` method has been called. This is because the JMS provider may be modifying the `Message` object in another thread during this time. The JMS provider may throw an `JMSException` if the application attempts to access or modify the `Message` object after the `send` method has returned and before the `CompletionListener` has been invoked. If the JMS provider does not throw an exception then the behaviour is undefined.

      Parameters:
        `completionListener` - If asynchronous send behaviour is required, this should be set to a `CompletionListener` to be notified when the send has completed. If synchronous send behaviour is required, this should be set to `null`.
      Returns:
        this `JMSProducer`
      Throws:
        `JMSRuntimeException` - if an internal error occurs

    - #### getObjectProperty

          Object getObjectProperty(String name)

      Returns the message property with the specified name that has been set on this `JMSProducer`, converted to objectified format.

      This method can be used to return, in objectified format, an object that has been stored as a property in the message with the equivalent `setObjectProperty` method call, or its equivalent primitive `set<I>type</I>Property` method.

      Parameters:
        `name` - the name of the property
      Returns:
        the Java object property value with the specified name, in objectified format (for example, if the property was set as an `int`, an `Integer` is returned); if there is no property by this name, a null value is returned
      Throws:
        `JMSRuntimeException` - if the JMS provider fails to get the property value due to some internal error.
      See Also:

    - #### getPropertyNames

          Set<String> getPropertyNames()

      Returns an unmodifiable `Set` view of the names of all the message properties that have been set on this JMSProducer.

      Note that JMS standard header fields are not considered properties and are not returned in this Set.

      The set is backed by the `JMSProducer`, so changes to the map are reflected in the set. However the set may not be modified. Attempts to modify the returned collection, whether directly or via its iterator, will result in an `java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException`. Its behaviour matches that defined in the `java.util.Collections` method `unmodifiableSet`.

      Returns:
        a `Set` containing the names of all the message properties that have been set on this `JMSProducer`
      Throws:
        `JMSRuntimeException` - if the JMS provider fails to get the property names due to some internal error.
      See Also:
        `Collections.unmodifiableSet(java.util.Set<? extends T>)`

    - #### setJMSCorrelationIDAsBytes

          JMSProducer setJMSCorrelationIDAsBytes(byte[] correlationID)

      Specifies that messages sent using this `JMSProducer` will have their `JMSCorrelationID` header value set to the specified correlation ID, where correlation ID is specified as an array of bytes.

      This will override any `JMSCorrelationID` header value that is already set on the message being sent.

      The array is copied before the method returns, so future modifications to the array will not alter the value in this `JMSProducer`.

      If a provider supports the native concept of correlation ID, a JMS client may need to assign specific `JMSCorrelationID` values to match those expected by native messaging clients. JMS providers without native correlation ID values are not required to support this method and its corresponding get method; their implementation may throw a `java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException`.

      The use of a `byte[]` value for `JMSCorrelationID` is non-portable.

      Parameters:
        `correlationID` - the correlation ID value as an array of bytes
      Returns:
        this `JMSProducer`
      Throws:
        `JMSRuntimeException` - if the JMS provider fails to set the correlation ID due to some internal error.
      See Also:
        `setJMSCorrelationID(String)`, `getJMSCorrelationID()`, `getJMSCorrelationIDAsBytes()`

    - #### getJMSCorrelationIDAsBytes

          byte[] getJMSCorrelationIDAsBytes()

      Returns the `JMSCorrelationID` header value that has been set on this `JMSProducer`, as an array of bytes.

      The use of a `byte[]` value for `JMSCorrelationID` is non-portable.

      Returns:
        the correlation ID as an array of bytes
      Throws:
        `JMSRuntimeException` - if the JMS provider fails to get the correlation ID due to some internal error.
      See Also:
        `setJMSCorrelationID(String)`, `getJMSCorrelationID()`, `setJMSCorrelationIDAsBytes(byte[])`

    - #### setJMSCorrelationID

          JMSProducer setJMSCorrelationID(String correlationID)

      Specifies that messages sent using this `JMSProducer` will have their `JMSCorrelationID` header value set to the specified correlation ID, where correlation ID is specified as a `String`.

      This will override any `JMSCorrelationID` header value that is already set on the message being sent.

      A client can use the `JMSCorrelationID` header field to link one message with another. A typical use is to link a response message with its request message.

      `JMSCorrelationID` can hold one of the following:

      - A provider-specific message ID
      - An application-specific `String`
      - A provider-native `byte[]` value

      Since each message sent by a JMS provider is assigned a message ID value, it is convenient to link messages via message ID. All message ID values must start with the `'ID:'` prefix.

      In some cases, an application (made up of several clients) needs to use an application-specific value for linking messages. For instance, an application may use `JMSCorrelationID` to hold a value referencing some external information. Application-specified values must not start with the `'ID:'` prefix; this is reserved for provider-generated message ID values.

      If a provider supports the native concept of correlation ID, a JMS client may need to assign specific `JMSCorrelationID` values to match those expected by clients that do not use the JMS API. A `byte[]` value is used for this purpose. JMS providers without native correlation ID values are not required to support `byte[]` values. The use of a `byte[]` value for `JMSCorrelationID` is non-portable.

      Parameters:
        `correlationID` - the message ID of a message being referred to
      Returns:
        this `JMSProducer`
      Throws:
        `JMSRuntimeException` - if the JMS provider fails to set the correlation ID due to some internal error.
      See Also:
        `getJMSCorrelationID()`, `getJMSCorrelationIDAsBytes()`, `setJMSCorrelationIDAsBytes(byte[])`

    - #### getJMSCorrelationID

          String getJMSCorrelationID()

      Returns the `JMSCorrelationID` header value that has been set on this `JMSProducer`, as a `String`.

      This method is used to return correlation ID values that are either provider-specific message IDs or application-specific `String` values.

      Returns:
        the correlation ID of a message as a `String`
      Throws:
        `JMSRuntimeException` - if the JMS provider fails to get the correlation ID due to some internal error.
      See Also:
        `setJMSCorrelationID(String)`, `getJMSCorrelationIDAsBytes()`, `setJMSCorrelationIDAsBytes(byte[])`

    - #### setJMSType

          JMSProducer setJMSType(String type)

      Specifies that messages sent using this `JMSProducer` will have their `JMSType` header value set to the specified message type.

      This will override any `JMSType` header value that is already set on the message being sent.

      Some JMS providers use a message repository that contains the definitions of messages sent by applications. The `JMSType` header field may reference a message's definition in the provider's repository.

      The JMS API does not define a standard message definition repository, nor does it define a naming policy for the definitions it contains.

      Some messaging systems require that a message type definition for each application message be created and that each message specify its type. In order to work with such JMS providers, JMS clients should assign a value to `JMSType`, whether the application makes use of it or not. This ensures that the field is properly set for those providers that require it.

      To ensure portability, JMS clients should use symbolic values for `JMSType` that can be configured at installation time to the values defined in the current provider's message repository. If string literals are used, they may not be valid type names for some JMS providers.

      Parameters:
        `type` - the message type
      Returns:
        this `JMSProducer`
      Throws:
        `JMSRuntimeException` - if the JMS provider fails to set the message type due to some internal error.
      See Also:
        `getJMSType()`

    - #### getJMSType

          String getJMSType()

      Returns the `JMSType` header value that has been set on this `JMSProducer`.
      Returns:
        the message type
      Throws:
        `JMSRuntimeException` - if the JMS provider fails to get the message type due to some internal error.
      See Also:
        `setJMSType(String)`

    - #### setJMSReplyTo

          JMSProducer setJMSReplyTo(Destination replyTo)

      Specifies that messages sent using this `JMSProducer` will have their `JMSReplyTo` header value set to the specified `Destination` object.

      This will override any `JMSReplyTo` header value that is already set on the message being sent.

      The `JMSReplyTo` header field contains the destination where a reply to the current message should be sent. If it is null, no reply is expected. The destination may be either a `Queue` object or a `Topic` object.

      Messages sent with a null `JMSReplyTo` value may be a notification of some event, or they may just be some data the sender thinks is of interest.

      Messages with a `JMSReplyTo` value typically expect a response. A response is optional; it is up to the client to decide. These messages are called requests. A message sent in response to a request is called a reply.

      In some cases a client may wish to match a request it sent earlier with a reply it has just received. The client can use the `JMSCorrelationID` header field for this purpose.

      Parameters:
        `replyTo` - `Destination` to which to send a response to this message
      Returns:
        this `JMSProducer`
      Throws:
        `JMSRuntimeException` - if the JMS provider fails to set the `JMSReplyTo` destination due to some internal error.
      See Also:
        `getJMSReplyTo()`

    - #### getJMSReplyTo

          Destination getJMSReplyTo()

        `Destination` the `JMSReplyTo` header value
      Throws:
        `JMSRuntimeException` - if the JMS provider fails to get the `JMSReplyTo` destination due to some internal error.
      See Also:
        `setJMSReplyTo(Destination)`
