ApplType (10-digit signed integer)

Application type.

This identifies the nature of the program to be started in response to the receipt of a trigger message. This information is for use by a trigger-monitor application that processes messages on the initiation queue; the information is sent to the initiation queue as part of the trigger message.

ApplType can have any value, but the following values are recommended for standard types; user-defined application types should be restricted to values in the range ATUFST through ATULST:

ATCICS

CICS transaction.

AT400

i5/OS application.

ATUFST

Lowest value for user-defined application type.

ATULST

Highest value for user-defined application type.

To determine the value of this attribute, use the IAAPPT selector with the MQINQ call.
