/** A ServerSession
object is an application server object that
* is used by a server to associate a thread with a JMS session (optional).
*
* A ServerSession
implements two methods:
*
*
* getSession
- returns the ServerSession
's
* JMS session.
* start
- starts the execution of the
* ServerSession
* thread and results in the execution of the JMS session's
* run
method.
*
*
* A ConnectionConsumer
implemented by a JMS provider uses a
* ServerSession
to process one or more messages that have
* arrived. It does this by getting a ServerSession
from the
* ConnectionConsumer
's ServerSessionPool
; getting
* the ServerSession
's JMS session; loading it with the messages;
* and then starting the ServerSession
.
*
*
In most cases the ServerSession
will register some object
* it provides as the ServerSession
's thread run object. The
* ServerSession
's start
method will call the
* thread's start
method, which will start the new thread, and
* from it, call the run
method of the
* ServerSession
's run object. This object will do some
* housekeeping and then call the Session
's run
* method. When run
returns, the ServerSession
's run
* object can return the ServerSession
to the
* ServerSessionPool
, and the cycle starts again.
*
*
Note that the JMS API does not architect how the
* ConnectionConsumer
loads the Session
with
* messages. Since both the ConnectionConsumer
and
* Session
are implemented by the same JMS provider, they can
* accomplish the load using a private mechanism.
