spring-boot configure non exposed properties

I am using spring-boot to configure jms and activemq connectivity. Due to a defect in activemq I need to set the idle timeout on the PooledConnectionFactory. This configuration is not exposed by spring-boot. How do I set it?

I have a @Bean to create a messageListenerContainer which has the connectionFactory as an argument. I can instanceof check the factory and configure it here but this seems not the correct way.

Downcasting to PooledConnectionFactory and calling setIdleTimeout is a perfectly reasonable approach, in my opinion.

If you'd prefer not to do it as part of the creation of the message listener container, you could declare your own ConnectionFactory bean while still making use of ActiveMQProperties. Something like this:

@Configuration
@EnableConfigurationProperties(ActiveMQProperties.class)
class CustomActiveMQConnectionFactoryConfiguration {

    @Autowired
    private ActiveMQProperties properties;

    @Bean
    public ConnectionFactory jmsConnectionFactory() {
        ConnectionFactory connectionFactory = this.properties.createConnectionFactory();
        if (connectionFactory instanceof PooledConnectionFactory) {
            ((PooledConnectionFactory) connectionFactory).setIdleTimeout(1000);
        }
        return connectionFactory;
    }
}
