Objectives

This sample demonstrates how persistent queues can be created and used in Message Broker using the RabbitMQ .NetNET/C# client. It first introduces a sample .Net NET client by the name named "QueuePublisher", which is used to publish messages to a known, created queue in WSO2 Message Broker, and then introduces a sample .Net NET client by the name named "QueueConsumer" to receive messages and print message content in to the console.

Prerequisites

In order to To run this code sample, you need to must download and add the RabbitMQ.Client.dll file as a reference in your .net NET project. You can download that dll the file from this website http://www.rabbitmq.com/dotnet.html or herefrom the WSO2 repository.

Running the

...

sample

Prior to Before running following "the QueuePublisher class,we need to must register at least one "one  QueueConsumer " binding prior before sending messages to the queue  This can be done by either,

...

queue by doing one of the following:

  • Log into WSO2 Message Broker management console and create a queue named 'test-queue' (

...

  • from the Main menu, choose Queues -> Add

...

...


  • OR
  • Run the QueueConsumer class depicted below

...

  • , which will register a binding to that queue. When you have run the QueueConsumer

...

  • class, you will see the queue created by

...

  • that  class is visible in the management console

...

  • when you go to Queues -> Browse

...

  •  

Now using the following "QueuePublisher" .Net client, messages can be sent to 'test-queue' created earlier. 

You are now ready to use the QueuePublisher .NET client to send messages to the queue.

                }
            }
        }
    }

Next, execute the following QueueConsumer .NET client, which allows you to receive messages from 'test-queue'.
