  - ### createSession

    jakarta.jms.Session createSession(int acknowledgeMode) throws jakarta.jms.JMSException
    Creates a `Session` object.
    Specified by:

    Returns:
      a newly created session
    Throws:
      `jakarta.jms.JMSException` - if the `Connection` object fails to create a session due to some internal error or lack of support for the specific transaction and acknowledgement mode.
