If the Expiry timeout property is set to Specified, type here the number of milliseconds (greater than 0) after which messages on this queue expire.
Information Value Data type Integer Units Milliseconds Range Greater than or equal to 0
- 0 indicates that messages never time out
- Other values are an integer number of milliseconds
Base Queue Name
The name of the queue to which messages are sent, on the queue manager specified by the Base queue manager name property.
Information Value Data type String
Base Queue Manager Name
The name of the WebSphere MQ queue manager to which messages are sent.

Information Value Data type String Units En_US ASCII characters Range A valid WebSphere MQ Queue Manager name, as 1 through 48 ASCII characters
CCSID
The coded character set identifier to use with the WebSphere MQ queue manager.
This coded character set identifier (CCSID) must be one of the CCSIDs supported by WebSphere MQ queue manager. See the WebSphere MQ messaging provider queue and topic advanced properties settings for more details.
Information Value Data type String
Integer encoding
If native encoding is not enabled, select whether integer encoding is normal or reversed.
Information Value Data type Enum Default NORMAL Range
- NORMAL
- Normal integer encoding is used.
- REVERSED
- Reversed integer encoding is used.
For more information about encoding properties, see Use Java in the WebSphere MQ information center.
Decimal encoding
If native encoding is not enabled, select whether decimal encoding is normal or reversed.
Information Value Data type Enum Default NORMAL Range
- NORMAL
- Normal decimal encoding is used.
- REVERSED
- Reversed decimal encoding is used.
For more information about encoding properties, see Use Java in the WebSphere MQ information center.
Floating point encoding
If native encoding is not enabled, select the type of floating point encoding.
Information Value Data type Enum Default IEEENORMAL Range
- IEEENORMAL
- IEEE normal floating point encoding is used.
- IEEEREVERSED
- IEEE reversed floating point encoding is used.
- S390
- S390 floating point encoding is used.
For more information about encoding properties, see Use Java in the WebSphere MQ information center.
Native encoding
Indicates the queue destination uses native encoding (appropriate encoding values for the Java platform) when we select this check box.
Information Value Data type Enum Default Cleared Range
- Cleared
- Native encoding is not used, so specify the following properties for integer, decimal and floating point encoding.
- Selected
- Native encoding is used (to provide appropriate encoding values for the Java platform).
For more information about encoding properties, see Use Java in the WebSphere MQ information center.
Target client
Whether the receiving application is JMS compliant or is a traditional WebSphere MQ application.
Information Value Data type Enum Default WebSphere MQ Range
Message body
Whether an application processes the RFH version 2 header of a WebSphere MQ message as part of the JMS message body.
Information Value Data type Drop-down list Default UNSPECIFIED Range
- UNSPECIFIED
- When sending messages, the WebSphere MQ messaging provider does or does not generate and include an RFH version 2 header, depending on the value of the Append RFH version 2 headers to messages sent to this destination property. When receiving messages, the WebSphere MQ messaging provider acts as if the value is set to JMS.
- JMS
- When sending messages, the WebSphere MQ messaging provider automatically generates an RFH version 2 header and includes it in the WebSphere MQ message. When receiving messages, the WebSphere MQ messaging provider sets the JMS message properties according to values in the RFH version 2 header (if these value are present); it does not present the RFH version 2 header as part of the JMS message body.
- MQ
- When sending messages, the WebSphere MQ messaging provider does not generate an RFH version 2 header. When receiving messages, the WebSphere MQ messaging provider presents the RFH version 2 header as part of the JMS message body.
ReplyTo destination style
Format of the JMSReplyTo field.
Information Value Data type Drop-down list Default DEFAULT Range
- DEFAULT
- Default is equivalent to the information in the RFH version 2 header.
- MQMD
- Use the value supplied in the MQMD. This populates the reply to queue manager field with the value from the MQMD, equivalent to the default behaviour of WebSphere MQ v6.0.2.4 and 6.0.2.5.
- RFH2
- Use the value supplied in the RFH version 2 header. If the sending application set a JMSReplyTo value, then that value is used.
MQMD read enabled
Whether an application can read the values of MQMD fields from JMS messages that have been sent or received using the WebSphere MQ messaging provider.
Information Value Data type Check box Default Cleared Range
- Cleared
- Applications cannot read the values of the MQMD fields.
- Selected
- Applications can read the values of the MQMD fields.
MQMD write enabled
Whether an application can write the values of MQMD fields to JMS messages that will be sent or received using the WebSphere MQ messaging provider.
Information Value Data type Check box Default Cleared Range
- Cleared
- Applications cannot write the values of the MQMD fields.
- Selected
- Applications can write the values of the MQMD fields.
MQMD message context
Defines the message context options specified when sending messages to a destination.
Information Value Data type Drop-down list Default DEFAULT Range
- DEFAULT
- The MQOPEN API call and the MQPMO structure specify no explicit message context options.
- SET_IDENTITY_CONTEXT
- The MQOPEN API call specifies the message context option MQOO_SET_IDENTITY_CONTEXT, and the MQPMO structure specifies MQPMO_SET_IDENTITY_CONTEXT.
- SET_ALL_CONTEXT
- The MQOPEN API call specifies the message context option MQOO_SET_ALL_CONTEXT, and the MQPMO structure specifies MQPMO_SET_ALL_CONTEXT.
Custom Properties
Specifies name-value pairs for setting additional properties on the object that is created at run time for this resource.
You must enter a name that is a public property on the object and a value that can be converted from a string to the type required by the set method of the property. The acceptable properties and values depend on the object that is created. Refer to the object documentation for a list of valid properties and values.
