How to configure a Connection Factory for Queue type message?

[liang gu]

I am using WL 7.0. Is there a way to specify the Connection Factory to be used for Queue messages? Or maybe a Connection Factory can be used for both Queue and Topic?

I am a bit confused...
Queues and Topics themselves do not use Connection Factories. However, the senders and recievers for the Queues and Topics do. Please explain your question in more detail so that we can give an appropriate answer.

What I really mean is that:
I want to configure a Connection Factory, and later use it to create QueueConnection. Do I need to specify some parameter in the configuration to indicate that the Connection Factory is used to create QueueConnection(not TopicConnection), or is it necessary?

A WebLogic ConnectionFactory is both a QueueConnectionFactory and a TopicConnectionFactory. Therefore you do not have to create different ones for each.
Furthermore, in most cases you do not even have to configure a ConnectionFactory since you can use the default ConnectionFactory. Its Jndi name is weblogic.jms.ConnectionFactory.
