Message along with
 a MessageBuilder and MessageHeaderAccessor for building and working with messages and
 message headers, as well as various MessageChannel
 implementations and channel interceptor support.See: Description
| Interface | Description | 
|---|---|
| ChannelInterceptor | 
 Interface for interceptors that are able to view and/or modify the
  
Messages being sent-to and/or received-from a
 MessageChannel. | 
| ExecutorChannelInterceptor | 
 An extension of  
ChannelInterceptor with callbacks to intercept the
 asynchronous sending of a Message to
 a specific subscriber through an Executor. | 
| HeaderMapper<T> | 
 Generic strategy interface for mapping  
MessageHeaders to and from other
 types of objects. | 
| InterceptableChannel | 
 A  
MessageChannel that
 maintains a list ChannelInterceptors and allows interception of message sending. | 
| MessageHandlingRunnable | 
 Extension of the  
Runnable interface with methods to obtain the
 MessageHandler and Message to be handled. | 
| MessageHeaderInitializer | 
 Callback interface for initializing a  
MessageHeaderAccessor. | 
| Class | Description | 
|---|---|
| AbstractHeaderMapper<T> | 
 A base  
HeaderMapper implementation. | 
| AbstractMessageChannel | 
 Abstract base class for  
MessageChannel implementations. | 
| AbstractSubscribableChannel | 
 Abstract base class for  
SubscribableChannel implementations. | 
| ChannelInterceptorAdapter | Deprecated
 as of 5.0.7  
ChannelInterceptor has default methods (made
 possible by a Java 8 baseline) and can be implemented directly without the
 need for this no-op adapter | 
| ErrorMessage | 
 A  
GenericMessage with a Throwable payload. | 
| ExecutorSubscribableChannel | 
 A  
SubscribableChannel that sends messages to each of its subscribers. | 
| GenericMessage<T> | 
 An implementation of  
Message with a generic payload. | 
| IdTimestampMessageHeaderInitializer | 
 A  
MessageHeaderInitializer
 to customize the strategy for ID and TIMESTAMP message header generation. | 
| ImmutableMessageChannelInterceptor | 
 A simpler interceptor that calls  
MessageHeaderAccessor.setImmutable()
 on the headers of messages passed through the preSend method. | 
| MessageBuilder<T> | |
| MessageHeaderAccessor | 
 Wrapper around  
MessageHeaders that provides extra features such as
 strongly typed accessors for specific headers, the ability to leave headers
 in a Message mutable, and the option to suppress automatic generation
 of id and timestamp headers. | 
| NativeMessageHeaderAccessor | 
MessageHeaderAccessor subclass that supports storage and access of
 headers from an external source such as a message broker. |
