[rabbitmq-discuss] How to stop a consumer from consuming message after a message SHUTDOWN

Mon Jul 18 12:31:23 BST 2011

Toni,

Once your consumer receives the SHUTDOWN message you can simply have it
issue a Channel.basicCancel passing in the consumer's consumer tag.

The tag is returned by the basicConsume method, and is either one you
supplied or a broker-generated one.

Regards,

Rob
