41 /** A client uses a <CODE>TopicPublisher</CODE> object to publish messages on a
42 * topic. A <CODE>TopicPublisher</CODE> object is the publish-subscribe form
43 * of a message producer.
44 *
45 * <P>Normally, the <CODE>Topic</CODE> is specified when a
46 * <CODE>TopicPublisher</CODE> is created. In this case, an attempt to use
47 * the <CODE>publish</CODE> methods for an unidentified
48 * <CODE>TopicPublisher</CODE> will throw a
49 * <CODE>java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException</CODE>.
50 *
51 * <P>If the <CODE>TopicPublisher</CODE> is created with an unidentified
52 * <CODE>Topic</CODE>, an attempt to use the <CODE>publish</CODE> methods that
53 * assume that the <CODE>Topic</CODE> has been identified will throw a
54 * <CODE>java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException</CODE>.
55 *
56 * <P>During the execution of its <CODE>publish</CODE> method,
57 * a message must not be changed by other threads within the client.
58 * If the message is modified, the result of the <CODE>publish</CODE> is
59 * undefined.
60 *
61 * <P>After publishing a message, a client may retain and modify it
62 * without affecting the message that has been published. The same message
63 * object may be published multiple times.
64 *
65 * <P>The following message headers are set as part of publishing a
66 * message: <code>JMSDestination</code>, <code>JMSDeliveryMode</code>,
67 * <code>JMSExpiration</code>, <code>JMSPriority</code>,
68 * <code>JMSMessageID</code> and <code>JMSTimeStamp</code>.
69 * When the message is published, the values of these headers are ignored.
70 * After completion of the <CODE>publish</CODE>, the headers hold the values
71 * specified by the method publishing the message. It is possible for the
72 * <CODE>publish</CODE> method not to set <code>JMSMessageID</code> and
73 * <code>JMSTimeStamp</code> if the
74 * setting of these headers is explicitly disabled by the
75 * <code>MessageProducer.setDisableMessageID</code> or
76 * <code>MessageProducer.setDisableMessageTimestamp</code> method.
77 *
78 *<P>Creating a <CODE>MessageProducer</CODE> provides the same features as
79 * creating a <CODE>TopicPublisher</CODE>. A <CODE>MessageProducer</CODE> object is
80 * recommended when creating new code. The <CODE>TopicPublisher</CODE> is
81 * provided to support existing code.
82
83 *
84 *<P>Because <CODE>TopicPublisher</CODE> inherits from
85 * <CODE>MessageProducer</CODE>, it inherits the
86 * <CODE>send</CODE> methods that are a part of the <CODE>MessageProducer</CODE>
87 * interface. Using the <CODE>send</CODE> methods will have the same
88 * effect as using the
89 * <CODE>publish</CODE> methods: they are functionally the same.
