Hi All, I'm new to twisted but already fall in love with it... ;-) I'm using the txAMQP library to connect and consume messages from an AMQP server. The examples of the txamqp library shown how to connect to the message broker using the ClientCreator class. What I'm trying to do is to use the twisted application framework. Until now I succeeded to connect by creating a factory to use with twisted.application.internet.TCPClient. My two questions are: 1) Is this the right way to do this? Is it not possible to use the ClientCreator class directly? and 2) If this is the right way, when and where should I handle the AMQP authentication? To authenticate to the message broker, the "authenticate" method of the AMQClient instance must be called. This class is instantiated in the buildProtocol method of the client factory. Is this the right place to call this method too? Or is it better if I create a wrapper class around the AMQPClient which then authenticates when the connectionMade callback is called? Thanks for the help ~jonathan -- Best Regards, Jonathan Stoppani
