More on passing arguments

 

This example is written with Windows style path separator characters.

This example shows how to define a server service object to start a program called runserv when a queue manager is started. One of the arguments that is to be passed to the starting program is a string containing a space. This argument needs to be passed as a single string. To achieve this, double quotes are used as shown in the following command to define the command service object:

1. The server service object is defined, using the following MQSC command:

      DEFINE SERVICE(S1) SERVTYPE(SERVER) CONTROL(QMGR) +
        STARTCMD('C:\\Tools\runserv.exe') +
        STARTARG('-m +QMNAME+ -d "C:\\Tools\"') + 
        STDOUT('C:\\Tools\+MQ_SERVICE_NAME+.out')
   
   
   DEFINE SERVICE(S4) +
          CONTROL(QMGR) +
          SERVTYPE(SERVER) +
          STARTCMD('C:\\Tools\runserv.exe') +
          STARTARG('-m +QMNAME+ -d "C:\\Tools\"') +
          STDOUT('C:\\Tools\+MQ_SERVICE_NAME+.out')
   

   Where:

   • +QMNAME+ is a token representing the name of the queue manager.

   • "C:\\Tools\" is a string containing a space, which will be passed as a single string.
