Delete queues created for virtual topic consumers

[pol_ice]

Hi there,

In my functional tests I have to create a unique consumer name for each test to be able to imitate a subscription to the virtual topic and receiving the messages from the queue. Since the same consumer name will not be used any other time and due to a long list of tests I would love to be able to delete those queues created for my testing consumers of virtual topics.

I have tried to use Session.DeleteDestination() but it had no effect on the queues automatically created for virtual topic consumers.

Am I missing something?

My project is developed in C# and Apache.NMS.ActiveMq.

Thanks Gary,

I thought it would be a method not a broker setting.
However it should work just fine when separating testing and production environments ( we will just need not to forget to reset auto removal settings when setting it up on production. )

One question though, will this setting delete the inactive queues with a number of pending messages?

[gtully]

no, they need to be empty to be candidates for garbage collection.

I see, is there a way to unsubscribe consumer from virtual topic? So that I can ensure there are no more messages enqueued in its queue?

[gtully]

no, I guess the point of a virtual topic is that the messages remain,
but message expiry could be your friend here, once all messages expire
the destination will be a candidate for cleanup.
