I think we're from an old school where seeing a piece of code that
actually runs and works, really helps get an understanding of what this
API is supposed to do. The best we've got from any of the IBM web pages
just causes confusion ! My colleague - copied on the email has had a
couple of goes at this but not managed to get anything sensible back
from MQ
We have a fairly simple scenario where a message sending routine is
capable of going mad and filling the outbound MQ transmission queue with
a huge number of messages. On our test machine this has the effect of
killing MQ and losing us testing time. So what we are looking to do is
to do an MQINQ from the sending routine at the beginning to extract the
transmission queue from the *RMT queue details, then, at intervals
during the send process, doing an MQINQ on the transmission queue to
check it's safely below it's maximum allowed messages. If not we'll
either end the sending process, or at least make it go to sleep for a
bit until the transmission queue has cleared a bit.
So some example RPGLE code for
(a) how you do an MQINQ to get *RMT queue details - principally to
extract the transmission queue
(b) how you get MQINQ to extract current queue depth and maximum
queue depth
We just find the IBM documentation on this very baffling. Working
examples are always helpful
So if you have anything written in RPGLE (fixed or free format) which
does this would be a great help.
Thanks for your interest in our predicament :-)

If you look here,
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/wmqv7/v7r0/topic/com.ibm.mq.amq
wak.doc/ir10120_.htm
You might find some basic examples...

Can you say what it is you're having trouble with? That might get you
more responses.

We're simple souls who find the IBM documentation on this a bit
unhelpful
So does anyone have an example of some working RPGLE code for the MQINQ
API
We're looking for something that gets back the current queue depth, and
maximum queue depth, and even more helpful something that retrieves the
transmission queue name for a *RMT queue that a routine is about to post
messages to
Any assistance with this will be appreciated
