2.x Quartz Example

This document describes how to run the Qaurtz Quartz example in ServiceMix and provides details about what it the Quartz example does. For information on the business use case, please refer to: Use Case for BasicQuartz.

The Basic Quartz example illustrates the following:

  • use of declarative programming
  • how to use a Quartz timer
  • how to use tracing

The source code for the Quartz example is located in the ServiceMix installation directory under the examples\quartz-binding directory in the servicemix.xml file. It is recommended that you refer to the source code while reading this document.

This example shows how to use a Quartz component that sets to set off a trigger to send , that sends messages to a trace component. The trace component logs the messages to the console as they arrive

Running the

cd [servicemix_install_dir]\examples\basicquartz-binding

Then type:

[servicemix_install_dir]\bin\servicemix servicemix.xml

where servicemix_install_dir is the directory in which ServiceMix was installed.

Messages flow through the components as follows:

  1. The Every 5 seconds the timer component sends a message to inputSender the trace component, through the Normalized Message Router (NMR).
  2. inputSender converts the message (marshals it) into a JMS message, then uses the jmsTemplate bean to publish the message.
  3. jmsTemplate uses the jmsFactory bean to get a connection to the port associated with the JMS topic called "demo.org.servicemix.source." The message is published on the "demo.org.servicemix.source" topic.
  4. jencks (the JCA resource adapter) listens on port 61616 for messages.
  5. inputReceiver subscribes to the "demo.org.servicemix.source" topic via jencks and receives the JMS message.
  6. inputReceiver normalizes the JMS message and sends it to outputSender via the NMR.
  7. outputSender marshals the normalized message to a JMS message and uses jmsTemplate to publish the message on the "demo.org.servicemix.result" topic.
  8. jmsTemplate publishes it on the "demo.org.servicemix.result" topic using jmsFactory to get a connection to the result topic.
  9. jencks listens on port 61616 for messages.
  10. jmsTrace subscribes to the "demo.org.servicemix.result" topic and receives the JMS message via jencks.
  11. jmsTrace converts the JMS message into a normalized message and sends it to trace via the NMR.
  12. trace the trace component then transforms the normalized message into a string and logs it to the console.

Details

The following table provides more details about the function of each component and bean in the servicemix.xml file.

jbi is the "id" of the JBI container and provides the basic infrastructure services for the following components: timer, inputSender, inputReceiver, outputSender, jmsTrace, and trace. During initialization, several singletons are instantiated: transactionManager, broker, jencks, jmsFactory, and jbi. After initialization, the components in the jbi container are activated, starting with the timer component.

Component or Bean ID

Description

jbi

timer

The timer component shows the use of the QuartzComponent class. Every 5 seconds, until the program is terminated, the timer component kicks off an instance of a SimpleTrigger, which is associated with an instance of JobDetail. The job has a property called "name", with a value of "My Example Job" and another property called "group", with a value of "ServiceMix." The resulting message is converted to a normalized message and then routed through the NMR.

inputSender

This is a component inside the JBI container. It receives the normalized message (the message from the trigger), converts it to a JMS message, and publishes it to the topic called demo.org.servicemix.source. It uses the jmsTemplate(1) bean to handle the publish.

inputReceiver

This component uses jencks , the JCA container, to listen on port 61616 for a JMS message on the topic called "demo.org.servicemix.source." inputReceiver subscribes to the demo.org.servicemix.source topic. It takes the message, normalizes it, and routes it to outputSender via the NMR. This component combined with outputSender and supporting beans creates a JMS bridge between two topics.

outputSender

This component receives a normalized message from the NMR, marshals it into a JMS message using jmsTemplate, then publishes it on the ActiveMQ (JMS) topic called "demo.org.servicemix.result."

jmsTrace

This component uses jencks to subscribe to the "demo.org.servicemix.result" topic and get messages. It then marshals the message into a normalized message and routes it via the NMR to the trace component.

trace

Receives normalized messages from jmsTrace via the NMR. It transforms the normalized message into a string and logs it to the console.

jencks

The jencks bean defines a JCA container. The JCA container allows you to configure thread pool size, configure a transaction manager, and configure a resource adapter. In this example, the resource adapter is an ActiveMQ adapter, however, another JMS listener could be configured instead. This adapter listens on port 61616 for JMS messages.

broker

The broker bean uses the activemq.xml file to configure the message broker, which handles the JMS messages for the components that require JMS messaging services.

transactionManager

This bean is configured to be the default transaction manager for the jbi container. jencks is configured to use the default transaction manager. This transaction manager provides transactional services between the resource adapter (in this case the ActiveMQ resource adapter provided by the jencks JCA container) and components the jbi container.

jmsFactory

This bean listens on port 61616 and provides a pooled ActiveMQ connection.

trace

Receives normalized messages via the NMR. It transforms the normalized message into a string and logs it to the console.

Issues

The ServiceMix 2.0.2 distribution has a known logging bug, so output is not logged to the console, currently. There are two ways to fix this problem. The first solution is to upgrade to 2.0.3 or greater. Please see Download for the latest releases. If 2.0.2 is still the latest/current release, then download a developer's release of 2.0.3.

The other solution is to replace the jencks-all-1.1.1.jar with the jencks-all-1.1.2.jar file. Note: This can only be done for the source version of ServiceMix 2.0.2. To apply the fix, perform the following steps:

  1. Download the jencks-all-1.2.jar here.
  2. Copy the jar file to [servicemix_src_install_dir]\assembly\target\servicemix-2.0.2\bin\servicemix-2.0.2\lib, where [servicemix_src_install_dir] is the directory in which the ServiceMix distribution is located.
  3. Delete jencks-all-1.1.1.jar from that directory.
  4. Place a copy of the jar file in the ServiceMix web directory at [servicemix_src_install_dir]\servicemix-2.0.2\tooling\servicemix-web\target\servicemix-web\WEB-INF as well.
  5. To run the example in the source distribution:
Code Block

cd [servicemix_src_install_dir]\assembly\target\servicemix-2.0.2\bin\servicemix-2.0.2\bin

..\..\bin\servicemix servicemix.xml

NOTE: It is not necessary to build the source distribution if you have done so previously. If ServiceMix has not been built, execute the steps above, before building. The procedure on how to build the source distribution can be found here1. jmsTemplate: JmsTemplate is a Spring component which hides the low level details when sending JMS messages. For additional information see: JmsTemplate. jmsTemplate is not a component in the jbi container. It is used by inputSender and outputSender.
