Title: WebSphere
Question: Using IBM Message Queuing WebSphere with Delphi.
Answer:
I will not explain how to use WebSphere function's since they are very good explained in IBM documentation
I will focus on only one function MQCONNX since you can use it to connect to WebSphere without using eviroment variables in Windows.
First, you need to download WebSphere MQ - MQI for Delphi from http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=171&uid=swg24007060&loc=en_US&cs=utf-8?=en
I recommend you to use MQIC unit.
Then download http://www.torry.net/samples/samples/other/cmqpas.zip - from here copy TMQCD record definition and SetMQCD_CLIENT_CONN_DEFAULT procedure.
And here is procedure:
procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
var
pom: TMQCD;
ConnectOpts : MQCNO;
CompCode, Reason : MQLONG;
QMgrName : MQCHAR48;
Hconn : MQHCONN;
begin
QMgrName := 'QM_OTHER';
SetMQCD_CLIENT_CONN_DEFAULT(pom);
pom.ConnectionName := '122.118.1.111(1415)';
pom.QMgrName := 'QM_OTHER';
pom.ChannelName := 'CLIENT.QM_OTHER';
ConnectOpts := MQCNO_DEFAULT;
ConnectOpts.ClientConnPtr := @pom;
ConnectOpts.Version := MQCNO_VERSION_2;
MQCONNX ( @QMgrName, @ConnectOpts, @HConn, @Compcode, @Reason);
if CompCode MQCC_OK then
ShowMessage( 'Connect Failed' );
end
If you want to put flag Confirmation of Delivery (COD) on message or Confirmation of Arrival (COA)
You can do it something like this:
var
MsgDesc : MQMD;
PutMsgOptions : MQPMO;
BufferLength : MQLONG;
CompCode : MQLONG;
Buffer : array [0..MAX_SIZE] of Char;
Hconn : MQHCONN;
ObjDesc : MQOD;
begin
FillChar(buffer,SizeOf(Buffer),0);
BufferLength := Length('Message');
StrPCopy(buffer,'Message');
MsgDesc := MQMD_DEFAULT;
MsgDesc.Report := MQRO_COA_WITH_DATA + MQRO_COD_WITH_DATA;
MsgDesc.PutApplType := MQAT_WINDOWS;
MsgDesc.FeedBack := MQFB_COA + MQFB_COD;
StrPCopy(MsgDesc.ReplyToQMgr,'QM_REPLY');
StrPCopy(MsgDesc.ReplyToQ, 'queue');
PutMsgOptions := MQPMO_DEFAULT;
MQPUT1 (Hconn, @ObjDesc, @MsgDesc, @PutMsgOptions,
BufferLength, @Buffer, @Compcode, @intReason );
end
Here is an example of opening queue to put messages:
Options := MQOO_FAIL_IF_QUIESCING + MQOO_OUTPUT;
ObjDesc := MQOD_DEFAULT;
with ObjDesc do
begin
ObjectName := '';
for i := 1 to Length(edtObjName.Text) do
ObjectName[i-1] := edtObjName.Text[i];
ObjectName := ObjectName;
end;
MQOPEN (Hconn, @ObjDesc, Options, @HObj, @Compcode, @Reason );
if CompCode MQCC_OK then
ShowMessage( 'Open Failed' );
And here is example of opening object to put messages:
var
Options,CompCode, Reason : MQLONG;
i: Integer;
begin
Options := MQOO_FAIL_IF_QUIESCING + MQOO_INPUT_AS_Q_DEF;
ObjDesc := MQOD_DEFAULT;
with ObjDesc do
begin
ObjectName := '';
for i := 1 to Length(edtObjName.Text) do
ObjectName[i-1] := edtObjName.Text[i];
ObjectName := ObjectName;
end;
MQOPEN (Hconn, @ObjDesc, Options, @HObj, @Compcode, @Reason );
if CompCode MQCC_OK then
ShowMessage( 'Open Failed' );
Open button in my Attachement URL is made just for puting messages, if you want to get message you need to change Open, as I described.
