Writing a data-conversion exit program

 

For z/OS, write data-conversion exits in assembler language. For other platforms, it is recommended that you use the C programming language.

To help you to create a data-conversion exit program, the following are supplied:

• A skeleton source file

• A convert characters call

• A utility that creates a fragment of code that performs data conversion on data type structures This utility takes C input only. On z/OS, it produces assembler code.

These are described in subsequent sections.

For the procedure for writing the programs see:

• Writing a data-conversion exit program for WebSphere MQ for z/OS

• Writing a data-conversion exit for WebSphere MQ on UNIX systems

• Writing a data-conversion exit for WebSphere MQ for Windows

• Skeleton source file
  

• Convert characters call
  

• Utility for creating conversion-exit code
  

• Valid syntax
