WebSphere MQ Provider topic destination settings for application clients

 

Use this panel to view or change the configuration properties of the selected topic destination for use with the WebSphere MQ product Java Message Service (JMS) provider.

To view this Application Client Resource Configuration Tool (ACRCT) page, click File > Open. After you browse for an EAR file, click Open. Expand the selected JAR file > Messaging Providers > WebSphere MQ Provider. Right click Topic Destinations, and click New. The following fields are displayed on the General tab.

A topic destination is used to configure the properties of a JMS topic for the associated JMS provider. A topic for use with the WebSphere MQ product JMS provider has the following properties.

 

Name

The name by which the topic is known for administrative purposes.

Data type String

 

Description

A description of the topic for administrative purposes within IBM WAS.

 

JNDI Name

The application client run time uses this field to retrieve configuration information.

 

Persistence

Specify whether all messages sent to the destination are persistent, nonpersistent, or have their persistence defined by the application.

Data type Enum
Default APPLICATION_DEFINED
Range

Application defined

Messages on the destination have their persistence defined by the application that put them in the queue.

Queue defined

[WebSphere MQ destination only] Messages on the destination have their persistence defined by the WebSphere MQ queue definition properties.

Persistent

Messages on the destination are persistent.

Nonpersistent

Messages on the destination are not persistent.

 

Priority

Specify whether the message priority for this destination is defined by the application or the Specified priority property.

Data type Enum
Default APPLICATION_DEFINED
Range

Application defined

The priority of messages on this destination is defined by the application that put them in the destination.

Queue defined

[WebSphere MQ destination only] Messages on the destination have their persistence defined by the WebSphere MQ queue definition properties.

Specified

The priority of messages on this destination is defined by the Specified priority property. If you select this option, define a priority for the Specified priority property.

 

Specified Priority

If the Priority property is set to Specified, type the message priority for this queue, in the range 0 (lowest) through 9 (highest).

If the Priority property is set to Specified, messages sent to this queue have the priority value specified by this property.

Data type Integer
Units Message priority level
Range 0 (lowest priority) through 9 (highest priority)

 

Expiry

Whether the expiry timeout for this queue is defined by the application or by the Specified expiry property or by messages on the queue never expire (have an unlimited expiry timeout).

Data type Enum
Default APPLICATION_DEFINED
Range

Application defined

The expiry timeout for messages on this queue is defined by the application that put them in the queue.

Specified

The expiry timeout for messages in this queue is defined by the Specified expiry property. If you select this option, define a timeout value for the Specified expiry property.

Unlimited

Messages on this queue have no expiry timeout, and these messages never expire.

 

Specified Expiry

If the Expiry timeout property is set to Specified, type the number of milliseconds (greater than 0) after which messages on this queue expire.

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 Topic Name

The name of the topic to which messages are sent.

Data type String

 

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 CCSID identifiers that WebSphere MQ supports.

Data type String
Units Integer
Range 1 through 65535

 

Integer encoding

Indicates whether integer encoding is normal or reversed when native encoding is not enabled.

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 the WebSphere MQ Use Java document.

 

Decimal encoding

If native encoding is not enabled, select whether decimal encoding is normal or reversed.

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 the WebSphere MQ Use Java document.

 

Floating point encoding

Indicates the type of floating point encoding when native encoding is not enabled.

Data type Enum
Default IEEENORMAL
Range

IEEENORMAL

IEEE normal floating point encoding is used.

IEEEREVERSED

IEEE reversed floating point encoding is used.

S390

S/390 floating point encoding is used.

For more information about encoding properties, see the WebSphere MQ Use Java document.

 

Native encoding

Indicates that the queue destination uses native encoding (appropriate encoding values for the Java platform) when you select this check box.

Data type Enum
Default Cleared
Range

Cleared

Native encoding is not used, so specify the previous 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 the WebSphere MQ Use Java document.

 

BrokerDurSubQueue

The name of the broker queue from which durable subscription messages are retrieved.

The subscriber specifies the name of the queue when it registers a subscription.

Data type String
Units En_US ASCII characters
Range 1 through 48 ASCII characters

Data type String
Units En_US ASCII characters
Range 1 through 48 ASCII characters

Multicast

Specify whether this connection factory uses multicast transport.

Data type Enum
Default AS_CF
Range

AS_CF

This connection factory uses multicast transport.

DISABLED

This connection factory does not use multicast transport.

NOT_RELIABLE
