Abstract: Allowing queue messages to be pulled by one or more applications. A method may be practiced, for example, in a computing environment including applications configured to receive messages from queues. The method includes correlating applications to queues by correlating queue names to application locations. A queue is monitored to discover new messages in the queue. The method further includes receiving a notification that a new message has been added to the queue. An indication is provided to an activation service to allow the activation service to activate an application correlated to the queue and to allow the application to pull the new message from the queue.

Abstract: A server system in typical operation has a process manager, multiple listeners (each to receive requests for its protocols) and multiple worker processes that are each able to handle requests in multiple protocols. At server start-up, each listener connects with the process manager via a pipe published by the process manager. The listener then receives information via the process manager that includes information defining the application(s) for which that listener is to “listen” and associating application(s) to application pool(s). When the listener receives a request for such an application, the listener starts a queue for the associated application pool. The listener may use a hierarchical matching scheme to determine the associated application or application pool from the requested application. The process manager launches an appropriate worker process to handle requests in the listener's protocol. The worker process then makes a connection with the listener.

At server start-up, each listener connects with the process manager via a pipe published by the process manager. The listener then receives information via the process manager that includes information defining the applications(s) for which that listener is to “listen” and associating selected application(s) to application pool(s). When the listener detects a request for such an application, the listener starts a queue for the associated application pool. In response, the process manager launches an appropriate worker process to handle requests in the listener's protocol. The worker process then makes a connection with the listener.

At server start-up, each listener connects with the process manager via a pipe published by the process manager. The process manager then provides information to each listener associating applications to application pools, and applications for which the listener is to “listen”. When the listener receives a request for which it is to listen, the listener starts a queue for the application or associated application pool. The process manager launches an appropriate worker process to handle requests in the listener's protocol. The worker process then makes a connection with the listener.
