WSO2 Developer's Guide

Overview of this book

WSO2 Enterprise Integrator brings together the most powerful servers provided by the WSO2 company for your SOA infrastructure. As an Enterprise Service Bus (ESB), WSO2 Enterprise Integrator provides greater flexibility and agility to meet growing enterprise demands, whereas, as a Data Services Server (DSS), it provides an easy-to-use platform for integrating data stores, creating composite views across different data sources, and hosting data services. Using real-world scenarios, this book helps you build a solid foundation in developing enterprise applications with powerful data integration capabilities using the WSO2 servers. The book gets you started by brushing up your knowledge about SOA architecture and how it can be implemented through WSO2. It will help build your expertise with the core concepts of ESB such as building proxies, sequences, endpoints, and how to work with these in WSO2. Going further, you will also get well-acquainted with DSS data service concepts such as configuring data services, tasks, events, testing, and much more. The book will also cover API management techniques. Along with ESB and DSS, you will also learn about business process servers, the rules server and other components that together provide the control and robustness your enterprise applications will need. With practical use cases, the book covers typical daily scenarios you will come across while using these servers to give you hands-on experience.

Consuming messages from a queue

Now, we will learn how to consume messages from a queue. A common way to consume these queues is using a proxy that is attached to the queue. This proxy monitors the queue, consuming every message that is received in the queue:

In order to achieve this, we have to enable the transport receiver so that the proxy will be able to connect to the JMS Queue, where messages await to be consumed. We will proceed in the same way as we did for the transport sender in the previous section, but in this case, we have to enable the transport receiver:

  1. Open the axis2.xml file.
  2. Look for the following string in this file:
transportReceiver name="jms" class="org.apache.axis2.transport.jms.JMSListener"

You must find an XML tag that is commented by default when you download a fresh WSO2 EI:

In our case, we will uncomment the WSO2 Message Broker...
