Spring AMQP 2.0 Milestone 1 Available
We are pleased to announce the first milestone of Spring AMQP 2.0 is now available.
For a complete list of changes; see the what’s new in the reference manual and the release notes.
Here are some highlights of this release
-
The framework is now fully Java 8 based; several functional interfaces are provided for convenient Lambda implementations (callbacks,
ReplyingMessageListener
etc). Java 8 is now a requirement. It is also based on Spring Framework 5.0. -
The framework uses the new 4.0 amqp-client library.
-
A new
…DirectMessageListenerContainer
is now available alongside the existingSimpleMessageListenerContainer
. The new container actually has a simpler architecture and the listener is called directly on the amqp-client thread (hence the nameDirect…
). See Choosing a Container to help you decide which container is appropriate for your application.
