Object attributes

The properties of an object are defined by its attributes. Some we can specify, others we can only view. For example, the maximum message length that a queue can accommodate is defined by its MaxMsgLength attribute; we can specify this attribute when you create a queue. The DefinitionType attribute specifies how the queue was created; we can only display this attribute.

In WebSphere MQ, there are three ways of referring to an attribute:

The formal name of an attribute is its PCF name. Because using the CL interface is an important part of this book, you are more likely to see the CL name in examples than the PCF name of a given attribute.
