Creating Temporary Endpoints

A client can consume Guaranteed messages from a temporary endpoint (a temporary queue or a non-durable topic endpoint). However, a temporary endpoint is non‑durable because it only exists as for as long as the session that it was created in.

Solace Messaging API for Java RTO, C, and .NET

Temporary queues and non‑durable topic endpoints are dynamically provisioned when a flow is created (the flow property SOLCLIENT_FLOW_PROP_BIND_ID sets the endpoint type, and SOLCLIENT_FLOW_PROP_DURABLE sets the endpoint durability).

Solace JavaScript API and Solace Node.js API

Temporary queues and non-durable topic endpoints are dynamically provisioned when a solace.MessageConsumer is created (the MessageConsumer property queueDescriptor defines the endpoint type and durability).

To Create Temporary Endpoints
Solace Messaging API Use

Solace Java RTO API

For temporary queues:

  • SessionHandle.createTemporaryQueue()

    Creates a temporary queue with an automatically-generated name.

  • SessionHandle.createTemporaryQueue(String name)

    Creates a temporary queue with the given name.

For non-durable Topic Endpoints:

  • SessionHandle.createNonDurableTopicEndpoint()

    Creates a non-durable topic endpoint with an automatically-generated name.

  • SessionHandle.createNonDurableTopicEndpoint
    (String name)

    Creates a non-durable topic endpoint with the given name.

Solace C API

solClient_session_createFlow(...)

Solace .NET API

For temporary queues:

  • ISession.CreateTemporaryQueue()

    Creates a temporary queue with an automatically-generated name.

  • ISession.CreateTemporaryQueue(String)

    Creates a temporary queue based on the given name.

For non-durable topic endpoints:

  • ISession.CreateNonDurableTopicEndpoint()

    Creates a non-durable topic endpoint with an automatically-generated name.

  • ISession.CreateNonDurableTopicEndpoint(String)

    Creates a non-durable topic endpoint based on the given name.

Solace JavaScript API and Solace Node.js API

createMessageConsumer ( solace.MessageConsumerProperties | Object consumerProperties )

The MessageConsumerProperties object or the consumerProperties JSON object define durability and the endpoint type.
