To a client, a message-driven bean is simply a JMS message consumer. The client sends messages to the Destination (Queue or Topic) for which the message-driven bean is the MessageListener just as it would to any other Destination. The message-driven bean, like any other JMS message consumer, handles the processing of the messages. From the perspective of the client, the existence of a message-driven bean is completely hidden behind the JMS destination for which the message-driven bean is the message listener. A client locates the JMS Destination associated with a message-driven bean by using JNDI. For example, the Queue for the StockInfo message-driven bean can be located using the following code segment:
Context initialContext = new InitialContext();
Queue stockInfoQueue = (javax.jms.Queue)initialContext.lookup
("java:comp/env/jms/stockInfoQueue");
Message-driven beans don't have home/local home and remote/local interfaces.
A client's JNDI name space may be configured to include the JMS Destinations of message-driven beans installed in MULTIPLE EJB Containers located on MULTIPLE machines on a NETWORK. The actual locations of an enterprise bean and EJB Container are, in general, transparent to the client using the enterprise bean. When a client sends a message to a Destination for which a message-driven bean is the consumer, the container selects one of its METHOD-READY instances and invokes the instance's onMessage method. The following steps describe the lifecyle of a message-driven bean instance:
The table defines the methods of a message-driven bean class in which the message-driven bean instances can access the methods of the javax.ejb.MessageDrivenContext interface, the java:comp/env environment naming context, resource managers, and other enterprise beans.
