[rabbitmq-discuss] RabbitMQ publisher confirms using the Erlang client

[Eoin McCarthy]

Hi, 

Not sure if this is the best place to ask for help - but it's the forum 
mentioned on the Rabbit webpage - so I figured I'd give it a go. 

I'm a Rabbit newbie and using Erlang (which is also fairly new for me) to 
write my clients. That aside, my publisher code is writing messages to the 
specified queue. 
I can see the messages arriving in the queue via the Rabbit management 
console and an Erlang-based consumer is also picking up the messages are 
they arrive in the queue.  

However, I don't seem to be able to get publisher confirms working. I 
registered a confirm handler callback process and it's rigged to forward a 
message back to the parent process when it receives anything.
Gist is here: https://gist.github.com/eoinmc/5750876
It's not a real-world example - I'm just trying to figure out how to 
activate and see a publisher confirm using the Erlang client. So far with 
no success. 
The client docs are here: 
http://www.rabbitmq.com/releases/rabbitmq-erlang-client/v3.0.4/doc/

Any suggestions (including pointing out of obvious mistakes) appreciated. 

Eoin
