AMQP client using a queue alias to receive messages from an IBM MQ application

An AMQP client can subscribe to a topic and receive messages put to an alias queue by an IBM MQ application. If we want an MQ Light or AMQP 1.0 application to receive messages from an existing IBM MQ application that is configured to put messages on a queue, we must define a queue alias (QALIAS) on the queue manager.

The queue alias must have the same name as the queue that the IBM MQ application opens for putting. The queue alias must specify a base type of TOPIC and a base object of an IBM MQ topic object that has a topic string that matches the topic pattern subscribed to by the AMQP application.
