detach and reattach rabbitmq consumer to the exchange

I have a scenario where I need to detach a rabbitmq consumer from the exchange, on a specific event, so that it stops consuming the messages in the queue and then reattach the same consumer to the exchange and start consuming the messages again. I'm using Spring-RabbitMQ 1.6.

So far, I have read a few pages on the internet e.g. http://www.programcreek.com/java-api-examples/index.php?api=org.springframework.amqp.rabbit.core.RabbitAdmin

and http://docs.spring.io/spring-amqp/docs/1.6.0.RC1/reference/htmlsingle/#idle-containers and many others but couldn't exactly understand how to make it work.

You can simply call container.stop() to stop the consumer; start() will restart it.
