Description

I have added to the STOMP tester so it can take command line args for number of message to be read/sent. Using this the following tests will show the problems

#1) All messages are lost when a client does STOMP disconnect

1.1 start a subscriber to read 5 messages
./activemq_tester -d sub -m 5
1.2 start a publisher to publish 10 messages
./activemq_tester -d pub -m 10
1.3 run subscriber again to get the remaining 5 messages
./activemq_tester -d sub -m 5

---> No messages are available for the second run of the test subscriber. It seems there is no way to shutdown a stomp client without loosing all the messages on that q.

Output here.

-bash-2.05b$ ./activemq_tester -d pub -m 10

2) Now to see the ghost STOMP subscriber problem, hit control-C to stop the subscriber.
Then rerun subscriber and publisher and see the following output.....
