MQZED - Entity descriptor

The MQZED structure is used in a number of authorization service calls to specify the entity for which authorization is to be checked.

Fields

StrucId

Type: MQCHAR4 - input Structure identifier. The value is as follows:

MQZED_STRUC_ID

Identifier for entity descriptor structure.

For the C programming language, the constant MQZED_STRUC_ID_ARRAY is also defined; this has the same value as MQZED_STRUC_ID, but is an array of characters instead of a string.

Version

Type: MQLONG - input Structure version number. The value is as follows:

MQZED_VERSION_1

Version-1 entity descriptor structure.

The following constant specifies the version number of the current version:

MQZED_CURRENT_VERSION

Current version of entity descriptor structure.

EntityNamePtr

Type: PMQCHAR - input

Profile name.

Address of entity name. This is a pointer to the name of the entity whose authorization is to be checked.

EntityDomainPtr

Type: PMQCHAR - input

Address of entity domain name. This is a pointer to the name of the domain containing the definition of the entity whose authorization is to be checked.

SecurityId

Type: MQBYTE40 - input

Authority.

Security identifier. This is the security identifier whose authorization is to be checked.

CorrelationPtr

Type: MQPTR - input

Correlation pointer. This facilitates the passing of correlational data between the authenticate user function and other appropriate OAM functions.
