Running applications in the WebSphere MQ client environment
You can run a WebSphere MQ application both in a full WebSphere MQ environment and in a WebSphere MQ client environment without changing your code, provided that:
- It does not need to connect to more than one queue manager concurrently
- The queue manager name is not prefixed with an asterisk (*) on an MQCONN or MQCONNX call
- It does not need to use any of the exceptions listed in What applications run on a WebSphere MQ client?
- Note:
- The libraries you use at link-edit time determine the environment in which your application must run.
When working in the WebSphere MQ client environment, remember that :
- Each application running in the WebSphere MQ client environment has its own connections to servers. It will have one connection to each server it requires, a connection being established with each MQCONN or MQCONNX call the application issues.
- An application sends and gets messages synchronously.
- All data conversion is done by the server, but see also MQCCSID.
