Spring Cloud Stream publishing messages

Hey @marc

Thanks for the food for thought :-)! I managed to reach my goal:

    @Bean
    public MyObjectPublisher myObject() {
        return new MyObjectPublisher();
    }

    public class MyObjectPublisher implements Supplier<MyObject> {

        private BlockingDeque<MyObject> myObjects = new LinkedBlockingDeque<>();

        @Override
        public MyObject get() {
            return myObjects.poll();
        }

        public void publish(MyObject personWithHeight) {
            myObjects.add(personWithHeight);
        }
    }

   
   spring.cloud.function.definition= myObject
   spring.cloud.stream.bindings.myObject-out-0.destination = xy

For publishing I inject the MyObjectPublisher into mycode and call publish…
The problem with the approach: It seems to take forever until a message is published.
