Hi,
I have been through the manuals but could not find out how to query the MQ Series configuration on the current computer through .Net programming. Well maybe "configuration" is a strong word, what I'm looking for is a way to populate various dropdown's with a list of the Queue Managers Installed, list of Queues for a particular Queue Manager and such.
Thanks |

Hello elvis_gn,
Thanks for your prompt response.
google I did 
But I'm not one bit wiser 
Being new to the world of MQ and the lack of dotNet related documentation on PCFAgent & PCFMessageAgent.
Do I have any other options ?
Regards. |

PCFAgent and PCFMessageAgent are java classes that are supplied in a Support Pack.
Being Java, there's no way to run them from .NET, I think.
You can build and send PCF messages in .NET. There just aren't, that I know of, any helper classes to make it easier.

and PCF is NOT going to tell you which qmgrs are on a machine ... thats platform dependent , for example, on unix you need to read & parse the mqs.ini file in /var/mqm. On windows, you need to read the registry....

or, on most platforms, execute and process the output of "dspmq".

Thank you all for your responses.
w.r.t PCFAgent and PCFMessageAgent, I do find the classes in amqmdnet.dll available under the IBM.MQ.PCF namespace. Using the object browser in VS.Net I can see the methods but what I couldn't find was documentation in this regard in the .Net manuals
Back to the drawing board.
Regards |

| Why not just read the AMQCLCHL.TAB file, assuming that it is installed on the client platform. |
