I would like to know how can we tell which consumer will get the message from queue in case we have multiple consumers at JMS queue? for example, if we have 1 producer and 3 consumer (and 1 queue), how can i know which consumer gonna get the message?
thanks

There are 2 ways of comm with messaging: point-to-point and publish-subscribe.
In p2p there is only 1 consumer. in pub/sub the message is published to multiple subscribers and the subsribers can selectively process the messages using filters. For more details read the 3.5.2 Message Selectors section in jms tutorial.
