/** A client uses a <CODE>MessageProducer</CODE> object to send messages to a 
  * destination. A <CODE>MessageProducer</CODE> object is created by passing a 
  * <CODE>Destination</CODE> object to a message-producer creation method 
  * supplied by a session.
  *
  * <P><CODE>MessageProducer</CODE> is the parent interface for all message 
  * producers.
  *
  * <P>A client also has the option of creating a message producer without 
  * supplying a destination. In this case, a destination must be provided with 
  * every send operation. A typical use for this kind of message producer is
  * to send replies to requests using the request's <CODE>JMSReplyTo</CODE> 
  * destination.
  *
  * <P>A client can specify a default delivery mode, priority, and time to live 
  * for messages sent by a message producer. It can also specify the delivery 
  * mode, priority, and time to live for an individual message.
  *
  * <P>A client can specify a time-to-live value in milliseconds for each
  * message it sends. This value defines a message expiration time that
  * is the sum of the message's time-to-live and the GMT when it is sent (for
  * transacted sends, this is the time the client sends the message, not
  * the time the transaction is committed).
  *
  * <P>A JMS provider should do its best to expire messages accurately;
  * however, the JMS API does not define the accuracy provided.
