Thanks Brian, for a moment I forgot how much work is done using independent threads. For example, a simple message listener callback may often be executed from a different thread than the one that initially installed the listener. You are right that this would introduce some complexity for async message receipt. (But it might not be so bad when it comes to sending messages.) Perhaps that "broker-adapter-thingy" is adding a bit more value than first meets the eye. Still, I think it would be nice if someone worked on a variation of the generic adapter that ran within the CLR bridge. Unfortunately the .net equivalent of JMS isn't a real standard. (I think Sonic and AMQ both implement an API with similar patterns as JMS, but they don't share any formal interfaces like what we have in JMS). Perhaps if someone worked on a solution that involved the CLR bridge, it should be based on stomp, or it might even be based on the new "AMQP" wire standard. Something like that might not have a huge target audience - unfortunately I don't hear of that many ABL programmers who integrate their stuff with messaging brokers.
