Programmer's guide

This section provides general information for developing application programs for MQSeries. For more programming information, see the MQSeries online documentation (included with the MQSeries software) or MQSeries Programming Examples by Dieter Wackerow and Robert Gage at:

  1. Message Queue Interface
    The Message Queue Interface (MQI) is the common API for MQSeries. It contains calls and messages that are language independent. Although all calls exist in every language, including FlashBASIC, each programming language implements these calls using a method appropriate to that language.
  2. % functions and subroutines
    MQSeries interoperates with D3 at the API level. MQSeries implements a set of function calls to perform all of the tasks necessary to work with numerous MQSeries objects. D3 integrates foreign functions and libraries into the monitor. By adding MQSeries % calls, the FlashBASIC programmer can access all of the MQSeries functions and data structures.
  3. MQSeries account
    The MQSeries account acts as a repository for the D3 MQSeries software. Therefore, it must continue to exist after the installation is complete. Once the installation is complete, the user can log on to the MQSeries account.
  4. MQSeries API functions
    MQSeries supplies these API functions:
  5. Examples
    There are two examples available that provide code samples for queue messages:
