Message Driven Bean and deployment descriptor

Question

I have simple Message Driven Bean

@Named
@MessageDriven(mappedName = "jms/myQueue")
public class TestMDB implements MessageListener {

  @Override
  public void onMessage(Message msg) {
     //...
  }
}

How can I achieve the same using only deployment descriptor ejb-jar.xml instead of annotations? I don't know queue's JNDI-name at compile time, so I want to specify it in deployment descriptor.

You are tending to go backward. How are you getting your JNDI name at deploy time, not at runtime? To answer the question, you need to create a ejb-jar.xml and pack it. Read this http://www.adam-bien.com/roller/abien/entry/simplest_annotation_less_ejb_3 — Aninda Bhattacharyya, Mar 11 '15 at 20:44

Maybe something similar to:

    <message-driven>
        <ejb-name>TestMDB</ejb-name>
        <ejb-class>package.name.TestMDB</ejb-class>
        <messaging-type>javax.jms.MessageListener</messaging-type>
        <transaction-type>Container</transaction-type>
        <message-destination-type>javax.jms.Queue</message-destination-type>        
        <activation-config>
           <activation-config-property>
              <activation-config-property-name>destination</activation-config-property-name>
              <activation-config-property-value>myQueue</activation-config-property-value>
           </activation-config-property>
           <activation-config-property>
              <activation-config-property-name>destinationType</activation-config-property-name>
              <activation-config-property-value>javax.jms.Queue</activation-config-property-value>
           </activation-config-property>
           <activation-config-property>
              <activation-config-property-name>acknowledgeMode</activation-config-property-name>
              <activation-config-property-value>Auto-acknowledge</activation-config-property-value>
           </activation-config-property>
        </activation-config>
        <resource-ref id="ResourceRef_0">
           <res-ref-name>jms/myQCF</res-ref-name>
           <res-type>javax.jms.QueueConnectionFactory</res-type>
           <res-auth>Application</res-auth>
           <res-sharing-scope>Shareable</res-sharing-scope>
        </resource-ref>
     </message-driven>

Then in the bnd.xml file:

<message-driven name="TestMDB">
    <jca-adapter activation-spec-binding-name="mdb30/myQueue" destination-binding-name="Jetstream/jms/myQueue" activation-spec-auth-alias=""/>
    <resource-ref name="jms/myQCF" binding-name="Jetstream/jms/myQCF"/>
</message-driven>

I get `com.sun.appserv.connectors.internal.api.ConnectorRuntimeException: MDB destination not specified.` Have I missed something? — Joel, Mar 13 '15 at 07:50
Edited original post - maybe that can get you on the right track? — Ryan, Mar 13 '15 at 18:32
