updating messages

[noa]

Is it possible to update messages already in the queue.

like change their priority?

JMS does not support editing messages in place, you have to copy the message and resubmit as a new message.

Hermes does not support graphically editing messages - its been on my todo list for some time - however you could save them as XML and then edit the XML before resending them.

Select your message(s) and "save as XML". Edit the XML in place - it should be fairly obvious whats going on - and then File -> Open Messages or click in the toolbar. Once you've opened the file you can drag and drop the messages onto a queue or topic.

Thank you.

and i have to handle the double messages programatically on the receiving side, right?

I mean - resending the message doesn't obsoletes the old one.

Yes as far as JMS is concerned this is a duplicate message.

Its good practice to handle duplicate messages as there are many many scenarios that can create duplicates.
