A client uses aMessageProducer
object to send messages to a destination. AMessageProducer
object is created by passing aDestination
object to a message-producer creation method supplied by a session.
MessageProducer
is the parent interface for all message producers.
A client also has the option of creating a message producer without supplying a destination. In this case, a destination must be provided with every send operation. A typical use for this kind of message producer is to send replies to requests using the request'sJMSReplyTo
destination.
A client can specify a default delivery mode, priority, and time to live for messages sent by a message producer. It can also specify the delivery mode, priority, and time to live for an individual message.
A client can specify a time-to-live value in milliseconds for each message it sends. This value defines a message expiration time that is the sum of the message's time-to-live and the GMT when it is sent (for transacted sends, this is the time the client sends the message, not the time the transaction is committed).
A JMS provider should do its best to expire messages accurately; however, the JMS API does not define the accuracy provided.

public voidsetDisableMessageID(boolean value) throwsJMSException
Since message IDs take some effort to create and increase a message's size, some JMS providers may be able to optimize message overhead if they are given a hint that the message ID is not used by an application. By calling thesetDisableMessageID
method on this message producer, a JMS client enables this potential optimization for all messages sent by this message producer. If the JMS provider accepts this hint, these messages must have the message ID set to null; if the provider ignores the hint, the message ID must be set to its normal unique value.
Message IDs are enabled by default.

method on this message producer, a JMS client enables this potential optimization for all messages sent by this message producer.

The JMS API defines ten levels of priority value, with 0 as the lowest priority and 9 as the highest. Clients should consider priorities 0-4 as gradations of normal priority and priorities 5-9 as gradations of expedited priority. Priority is set to 4 by default.

public voidclose() throwsJMSException
Since a provider may allocate some resources on behalf of aMessageProducer
outside the Java virtual machine, clients should close them when they are not needed. Relying on garbage collection to eventually reclaim these resources may not be timely enough.
