Install ConnectionFactory for Camel JMS Producer: camel-jms Vs camel-sjms

Ciao, my main requirement is to have a route where I can post a message and that gets put on the JMS queue. The camel context runs in a JavaEE 6 container, namely JBoss AS 7.1.1, so it's HornetQ for the JMS that ships with it; I am starting the context with bootstrap singleton, but I am not using camel-cdi. So far I have used component camel-jms

, but now I am trying to switch to camel-sjms

if possible because no spring.

My question is how to properly configure the ConnectionFactory for camel-sjms

in this JavaEE scenario please?

With camel-jms, I could put this in the endpoint url as easy as .to("jms:myQueue?connectionFactory=#ConnectionFactory")

. With camel-sjms, I feel like I need to instantiate the SJMSComponent myself, set a connectionFactory and set that instance in the camel context before running it.

I have the code below for an example camel-jms vs camel-sjms and I would like to know if I did the right setup of the ConnectionFactory. Thank you.

For camel-jms

this it was done as:

@Singleton
@Startup
public class CamelBootstrap {
    private CamelContext camelContext;
    private ProducerTemplate producerTemplate;

    public CamelContext getCamelContext() {
        return camelContext;
    }

    public ProducerTemplate getProducerTemplate() {
        return producerTemplate;
    }

    @PostConstruct
    public void init() throws Exception {
        camelContext = new DefaultCamelContext();
        camelContext.addRoutes(new MyCamelRoutes());
        camelContext.start();
        producerTemplate = camelContext.createProducerTemplate();
    }
}

      

        
        
        
      

    

Nothing fancy, and in MyCamelRoutes

I could do the route setup using:

.to("jms:myQueue?connectionFactory=#ConnectionFactory")

For camel-sjms

now, I need to change the bootstrap syntax with:

@Singleton
@Startup
public class CamelBootstrap {

    @Resource(mappedName="java:/ConnectionFactory")
    private ConnectionFactory connectionFactory;

    private CamelContext camelContext;
    private ProducerTemplate producerTemplate;

    public CamelContext getCamelContext() {
        return camelContext;
    }

    public ProducerTemplate getProducerTemplate() {
        return producerTemplate;
    }

    @PostConstruct
    public void init() throws Exception {
        camelContext = new DefaultCamelContext();

        SjmsComponent sjms = new SjmsComponent();
        sjms.setConnectionFactory(connectionFactory);
        camelContext.addComponent("sjms", sjms);

        camelContext.addRoutes(new MyCamelRoutes());
        camelContext.start();
        producerTemplate = camelContext.createProducerTemplate();
    }
}

      

        
        
        
      

    

and note that @Resource

for connectionFactory it is passed as a reference to the SjmsComponent instance that is passed in camelContext. And then in MyCamelRoutes

I could use sjms when setting up the route using:

.to("sjms:myQueue")

Obviously, the code works correctly in both scenarios, but as far as I understand, the ConnectionFactory configuration is quite prone to performance issues if not done correctly, so I prefer to ask if I am porting in correctly camel-sjms

for my JavaEE scenario. Thanks again
