Interface MapMessage

All Superinterfaces:
  Message

    public interface MapMessage

extends Message

A `MapMessage` object is used to send a set of name-value pairs. The names are `String` objects, and the values are primitive data types in the Java programming language. The names must have a value that is not null, and not an empty string. The entries can be accessed sequentially or randomly by name. The order of the entries is undefined. `MapMessage` inherits from the `Message` interface and adds a message body that contains a Map.

The primitive types can be read or written explicitly using methods for each type. They may also be read or written generically as objects. For instance, a call to `MapMessage.setInt("foo", 6)` is equivalent to `MapMessage.setObject("foo", new Integer(6))`. Both forms are provided, because the explicit form is convenient for static programming, and the object form is needed when types are not known at compile time.

When a client receives a `MapMessage`, it is in read-only mode. If a client attempts to write to the message at this point, a `MessageNotWriteableException` is thrown. If `clearBody` is called, the message can now be both read from and written to.

`MapMessage` objects support the following conversion table. The marked cases must be supported. The unmarked cases must throw a `JMSException`. The `String`-to-primitive conversions may throw a runtime exception if the primitive's `valueOf()` method does not accept it as a valid `String` representation of the primitive.

A value written as the row type can be read as the column type.

     |----------------------------------------------------------------------

Attempting to read a null value as a primitive type must be treated as calling the primitive's corresponding `valueOf(String)` conversion method with a null value. Since `char` does not support a `String` conversion, attempting to read a null value as a `char` must throw a `NullPointerException`.
