Change XAConnectionFactory to extend ConnectionFactory

[glassfishrobot]

JMS 1.1, includes the following three interface definitions:

public interface XATopicConnectionFactory extends XAConnectionFactory, TopicConnectionFactory

public interface XAQueueConnectionFactory extends XAConnectionFactory, QueueConnectionFactory 

public interface XAConnectionFactory

why does XAConnectionFactory not extend ConnectionFactory? This is inconsistent.

Please consider changing XAConnectionFactory to extend ConnectionFactory.

@glassfishrobot Commented @nigeldeakin said: We would need to consider whether changing an object's superclass is a permitted change in conformance with the Backwards Compatibility Requirements for Java EE Specifications . This interface is not intended for use by normal applications so there may be more scope to change it.

This will be evaluated by the expert group for possible inclusion in the JMS 2.0 public draft. Tagging accordingly.
