Usage notes
- To keep the samples simple, there are some minor functional differences
between language versions. None of the differences relate to the MQI.
- If you enter a queue name that is longer than 48 characters, its length
is truncated to the maximum of 48 characters but no error message is returned.
- Before entering the transaction, press the CLEAR key.
- CSQ4CCJ1 can only correctly display character messages because it only
displays until the first NULL (\0) character is displayed.
- For the numeric field, enter any number between 1 and 9999. The value
that you enter should be a positive number. For example, to get a single message,
we can enter the value 1, 01, 001, or 0001. If you enter a nonnumeric or
negative value, you might receive an error.
- Messages longer than 24␠526 bytes in C and 9␠950 bytes
in COBOL are truncated. This is due to the way that the CICS temporary storage
queues are used.
- For both programs, CSQ4CCK1 and CSQ4CVK1, enter B in the get parameter
if you want to browse the messages, otherwise enter D. This performs destructive
MQGET calls. If you enter any other value you receive an error message.
- For both programs, CSQ4CCJ1 and CSQ4CVJ1, enter S in the syncpoint parameter
to retrieve messages in syncpoint. If you enter N in the syncpoint parameter,
the MQGET calls are issued out of syncpoint. If you enter any other value
you receive an error message.
