[rabbitmq-discuss] rabbitmq selector

Tue Jun 17 18:37:17 BST 2008

David,

No there isn't.

But we are currently investigating how to put some form of selectors
into an upcoming version of Rabbit.

The issues are that the headers exchange in the AMQP is not as
functionally rich as JMS selectors and that whilst they are documented
in the specification, there is some room for interpretation about how
comparisons are executed. Also, we'd like to achieve some kind of
interoperability with QPid, rather than just doing our own thing.

So basically we need to be clear about what functionality we are going
to implement, what this looks like from a client's perspective and how
this will be implemented in the broker.

Despite the fact that work has already started on this, I would say
that this is a mid-term goal of Rabbit, because there are a number of
higher-priority issues to get done first.

HTH,

Ben
