PutApplType (MQLONG)

This is the type of application that put the message, and is part of the origin context of the message. For more information about message context, see Overview for MQMD and Message context.

MQAT_AIX

AIX application (same value as MQAT_UNIX).

MQAT_AMQP

AMQP protocol application

MQAT_BROKER

Broker.

MQAT_CICS

CICS transaction.

MQAT_CICS_BRIDGE

CICS bridge.

MQAT_CICS_VSE

CICS/VSE transaction.

MQAT_DOS

IBM MQ MQI client application on PC DOS.

MQAT_DQM

Distributed queue manager agent.

MQAT_GUARDIAN

Tandem Guardian application (same value as MQAT_NSK).

MQAT_IMS

IMS application.

MQAT_IMS_BRIDGE

IMS bridge.

MQAT_JAVA

Java.

MQAT_MVS

MVS or TSO application (same value as MQAT_ZOS).

MQAT_NOTES_AGENT

Lotus Notes Agent application.

MQAT_NSK

HP Integrity NonStop Server application.

MQAT_OS390

OS/390 application (same value as MQAT_ZOS).

MQAT_OS400

IBM i application.

MQAT_QMGR

Queue manager.

MQAT_UNIX

UNIX application.

MQAT_VOS

Stratus VOS application.

MQAT_WINDOWS

16-bit Windows application.

MQAT_WINDOWS_NT

32-bit Windows application.

MQAT_WLM

z/OS workload manager application.

MQAT_XCF

XCF.

MQAT_ZOS

z/OS application.

MQAT_DEFAULT

Default application type.

This is the default application type for the platform on which the application is running.

Note: The value of this constant is environment-specific. Because of this, always compile the application using the header, include, or COPY files that are appropriate to the platform on which the application will run.

MQAT_UNKNOWN

Use this value to indicate that the application type is unknown, even though other context information is present.

MQAT_USER_FIRST

Lowest value for user-defined application type.

MQAT_USER_LAST

Highest value for user-defined application type.

The following special value can also occur:

MQAT_NO_CONTEXT

This value is set by the queue manager when a message is put with no context (that is, the MQPMO_NO_CONTEXT context option is specified).

When a message is retrieved, PutApplType can be tested for this value to decide whether the message has context (it is recommended that PutApplType is never set to MQAT_NO_CONTEXT, by an application using MQPMO_SET_ALL_CONTEXT, if any of the other context fields are nonblank).

When the queue manager generates this information as a result of an application put, the field is set to a value that is determined by the environment. On IBM i, it is set to MQAT_OS400; the queue manager never uses MQAT_CICS on IBM i.

For the MQPUT and MQPUT1 calls, this is an input/output field if MQPMO_SET_ALL_CONTEXT is specified in the PutMsgOpts parameter. If MQPMO_SET_ALL_CONTEXT is not specified, this field is ignored on input and is an output-only field.

This is an output field for the MQGET call. The initial value of this field is MQAT_NO_CONTEXT.
