If a ttl is set messages should be expired from queues after the desired time. See https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-528
*** Bug 448589 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Committed final part of this (for now at least!) in r704461. Tests exist in c++ and python (cpp/src/tests/ClientSessionTest::testExpirationOnPop and cpp/src/tests/ClientSessionTest::testPeriodicExpiration and python/tests_0-10/message/test_ttl). Messages are checked for expiry before dispatching them to subscribers. Epired messages are dropped on dequeue and periodically all expired messages are expunged unless the rate of dequeues since last purge is higher than one per second). The rate of the periodic purging of expired messages can be configured via the --queue-clean-interval option to qpidd.
C++ tests mentioned above exists and passing. Feature implemented. ->VERIFIED
