MQCFIN - PCF integer parameter

The MQCFIN structure describes an integer parameter in a message that is a command or a response to a command. In either case, the format name in the message descriptor is MQFMT_ADMIN.

The MQCFIN structure can also be used for user-defined message data. In this case the message descriptor Format field is MQFMT_PCF (see Message descriptor for a PCF command ). Also in this case, not all the fields in the structure are meaningful. The supplied initial values can be used for most fields, but the application must set the Value field to the value appropriate to the data.


Fields for MQCFIN

    Type (MQLONG)
    Structure type. This indicates that the structure is an MQCFIN structure describing an integer parameter. The value must be:

      MQCFT_INTEGER
      Structure defining an integer.

    StrucLength (MQLONG)
    Structure length. This is the length in bytes of the MQCFIN structure. The value must be:

      MQCFIN_STRUC_LENGTH
      Length of command format integer-parameter structure.

    Parameter (MQLONG)
    Parameter identifier.

    This identifies the parameter with a value that is contained in the structure. The values that can occur in this field depend on the value of the Command field in the MQCFH structure; see MQCFH - PCF header for details.

    The parameter is from the following groups of parameters:

    • MQIA_*
    • MQIACF_*
    • MQIAMO_*
    • MQIACH_*

    Value (MQLONG)
    Parameter value.

    This is the value of the parameter identified by the Parameter field.
