Compiling API exits on Unix and Linux systems

Examples of how to Compile API exits on UNIX and Linux systems.

On all platforms, the entry point to the module is MQStart.

MQ_INSTALLATION_PATH represents the high-level directory in which IBM MQ is installed.


On AIX

Compile the API exit source code by issuing one of the following commands:

    32 bit applications
    Non-threaded 
    cc -e MQStart -bE:amqsaxe.exp -bM:SRE -o /var/mqm/exits/amqsaxe \
amqsaxe0.c -I MQ_INSTALLATION_PATH/inc
    Threaded 
    xlc_r -e MQStart -bE:amqsaxe.exp -bM:SRE -o /var/mqm/exits/amqsaxe_r \
amqsaxe0.c -I MQ_INSTALLATION_PATH/inc

    64 bit applications
    Non-threaded 
    cc -q64 -e MQStart -bE:amqsaxe.exp -bM:SRE -o /var/mqm/exits64/amqsaxe \
amqsaxe0.c -I MQ_INSTALLATION_PATH/inc
    Threaded 
    xlc_r -q64 -e MQStart -bE:amqsaxe.exp -bM:SRE -o /var/mqm/exits64/amqsaxe_r \
amqsaxe0.c -I MQ_INSTALLATION_PATH/inc


On HP-UX Itanium platform

    32 bit applications
    Non-threaded Compile the API Exit source code: 
    c89 +e +z -c -D_HPUX_SOURCE -o amqsaxe.o amqsaxe0.c -I MQ_INSTALLATION_PATH/inc
    Link the API Exit source code 
    ld +b: -b amqsaxe.o +ee MQStart -o /var/mqm/exits/amqsaxe
rm amqsaxe.o
    Threaded Compile the API Exit source code: 
    c89 +e +z -c -D_HPUX_SOURCE -o amqsaxe.o amqsaxe0.c -I MQ_INSTALLATION_PATH/inc
    Link the API Exit source code 
    ld +b: -b amqsaxe.o +ee MQStart -o /var/mqm/exits/amqsaxe_r
rm amqsaxe.o

    64 bit applications
    Non-threaded Compile the API Exit source code: 
    c89 +DD64 +e +z -c -D_HPUX_SOURCE -o amqsaxe.o amqsaxe0.c -I MQ_INSTALLATION_PATH/inc
    Link the API Exit source code 
    ld -b amqsaxe.o +ee MQStart -o /var/mqm/exits64/amqsaxe
rm amqsaxe.o
    Threaded Compile the API Exit source code: 
    c89 +DD64 +e +z -c -D_HPUX_SOURCE -o amqsaxe.o amqsaxe0.c -I MQ_INSTALLATION_PATH/inc
    Link the API Exit source code 
    ld -b amqsaxe.o +ee MQStart -o /var/mqm/exits64/amqsaxe_r
rm amqsaxe.o


On Linux

Compile the API exit source code by issuing one of the following commands:

    31 bit applications
    Non-threaded 
    gcc -m31 -shared -fPIC -o /var/mqm/exits/amqsaxe amqsaxe0.c \
    -I MQ_INSTALLATION_PATH/inc
    Threaded 
    gcc -m31 -shared -fPIC -o /var/mqm/exits/amqsaxe_r amqsaxe0.c \
    -I MQ_INSTALLATION_PATH/inc

    32 bit applications
    Non-threaded 
    gcc -m32 -shared -fPIC -o /var/mqm/exits/amqsaxe amqsaxe0.c \
    -I MQ_INSTALLATION_PATH/inc
    Threaded 
    gcc -m32 -shared -fPIC -o /var/mqm/exits/amqsaxe_r amqsaxe0.c \
    -I MQ_INSTALLATION_PATH/inc

    64 bit applications
    Non-threaded 
    gcc -m64 -shared -fPIC -o /var/mqm/exits64/amqsaxe amqsaxe0.c \
    -I MQ_INSTALLATION_PATH/inc
    Threaded 
    gcc -m64 -shared -fPIC -o /var/mqm/exits64/amqsaxe_r amqsaxe0.c \
    -I MQ_INSTALLATION_PATH/inc


On Solaris

Compile the API exit source code by issuing one of the following commands:

    32 bit applications
    SPARC platform 
    cc -xarch=v8plus -KPIC -mt -G -o /var/mqm/exits/amqsaxe \
   amqsaxe0.c -I MQ_INSTALLATION_PATH/inc \
   -R/usr/lib/32 -lsocket -lnsl -ldl
    x86-64 platform 
    cc -xarch=386 -KPIC -mt -G -o /var/mqm/exits/amqsaxe \
   amqsaxe0.c -I MQ_INSTALLATION_PATH/inc \
   -R/usr/lib/32 -lsocket -lnsl -ldl

    64 bit applications
    SPARC platform 
    cc -xarch=v9 -KPIC -mt -G -o /var/mqm/exits64/amqsaxe \
   amqsaxe0.c -I MQ_INSTALLATION_PATH/inc \
