How to find a horneq Queue length


I am using Hornetq 2.0 i dont understand how can i know how many message are sitting on the queue at the moment.

This is a very useful feature so i can know at runtime if my consumer consume message fast enough.

I am not using the JMS api but the highly optimised core API.

What is the right (fastest) way to get the number of message in the queue ?

I found 2 way but don't know what is the proper way to do it.

public int size(){

    ClientSession session;

    try {

        session = sf.createSession(false, false, false);

        ClientRequestor requestor = new ClientRequestor(session, "hornetq.management");

        ClientMessage m = session.createMessage(false);

        ManagementHelper.putAttribute(m, "core.queue." + queueName, "messageCount");

        ClientMessage reply = requestor.request(m);

        int count = (Integer) ManagementHelper.getResult(reply);

        return count;

    } catch (Exception e) {

        e.printStackTrace();

    }

    return 0;

}

or

public synchronized int size(){

    ClientSession coreSession = null;

    int count = 0;

    try {

        coreSession = sf.createSession(false, false, false);

        ClientSession.QueueQuery result;

        result = coreSession.queueQuery(new SimpleString(queueName));

        count = result.getMessageCount();

    } catch (HornetQException e) {

        e.printStackTrace();

    } finally {

        if (coreSession!= null ){

            try {

                coreSession.close();

            } catch (HornetQException e) {

                e.printStackTrace();

            }

        }

    }

    return count;

}

Solution

  • I found those 2 ways

    public synchronized int size(){
        ClientSession session;
        try {
            session = sf.createSession(false, false, false);
            ClientRequestor requestor = new ClientRequestor(session, "hornetq.management");
            ClientMessage m = session.createMessage(false);
            ManagementHelper.putAttribute(m, "core.queue." + queueName, "messageCount");
            ClientMessage reply = requestor.request(m);
            int count = (Integer) ManagementHelper.getResult(reply);
            return count;
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        return 0;
    }
    

    and

    public synchronized int size(){
        ClientSession coreSession = null;
        int count = 0;
        try {
            coreSession = sf.createSession(false, false, false);
            ClientSession.QueueQuery result;
            result = coreSession.queueQuery(new SimpleString(queueName));
            count = result.getMessageCount();
        } catch (HornetQException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        } finally {
            if (coreSession!= null ){
                try {
                    coreSession.close();
                } catch (HornetQException e) {
                    e.printStackTrace();
                }
            }
        }
        return count;
    }
