MSMQ-MQSeries Bridge Programming
The MSMQ-MQSeries Bridge provides the ability to send and receive messages between Microsoft Message Queue Server (MSMQ) and IBM MQSeries and easily and efficiently. The MSMQ-MQSeries Bridge Extensions allow a programmer to develop and control how these message transfers will occur and how properties of a message are translated.
The main programming issues when using the MSMQ-MQSeries Bridge Extensions fall into three areas:
- Queue addressing
- Message conversion
- Limitations to specific API functions
Queue addressing deals with how to specify the name of an MQSeries destination queue in an MSMQ API call, or the name of an MSMQ destination queue in an MQSeries API call. Message conversion deals with how the MSMQ-MQSeries Bridge converts MSMQ message properties to MQSeries message data structures, and how the MSMQ-MQSeries Bridge converts MQSeries message data structures to MSMQ properties. These topics are covered in detail in separate sections below. Limitations to the MSMQ-MQSeries Bridge Extensions are discussed in detail in the section on programming considerations.
