Building your application on AIX

 

The AIX publications describe how to build executable applications from the programs that you write. This chapter describes the additional tasks, and the changes to the standard tasks, that perform when building WebSphere MQ for AIX applications to run under AIX. C, C++, and COBOL are supported. For information about preparing your C++ programs, see WebSphere MQ Using C++.

The tasks that perform to create an executable application using WebSphere MQ for AIX vary with the programming language that your source code is written in. In addition to coding the MQI calls in your source code, add the appropriate language statements to include the WebSphere MQ for AIX include files for the language that you are using. Make yourself familiar with the contents of these files. See WebSphere MQ data definition files for a full description.

When you run threaded server or threaded client applications, set the environment variable AIXTHREAD_SCOPE=S.
