Still working on ws-eventing and JBossWS… We noticed that event notification failures are completely lost. If an event notification fails (for example because the event sink is down) the current jbossws engine (1.0.4.GA) just logs the error and does nothing else. Of course it could be useful at least to keep track of failed notification in order to send them again later or simply to warn the sink’s owner.
So we’ve just made a patch to jbossws, saving notification failures into a list stored in the SubscriptionManager mbean.
You can find the patch on jboss jira: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBWS-1406
