| I'm using C API to access MQ, could I set some customized properties for the MQ message just like JMS property? |

Yes - the JMS header is mapped onto the RFH2 header in the message, which can be manipulated in the C API.
The Using Java manual shows this mapping for you.

If you're going to provide links to documentation, you might want to provide links to the IBM copies, rather than a mirror of unknown reliablity....

Or use XMS.

Thanks for all replies.
I'll do a reaserch for RFH2.
Actually, I just want to send a message from C to C and from C to Java, and I'm familiar with Java JMS. So I think, some of data are better stored in properties, not put into the message body.
The RFH2 can implement my request, right? |

If you are already familiar with JMS look into the messaging support pack (XMS) which brings a JMS like interface and handling of the RFH2 to non java languages...

Yes, the XMS is simililar to the JMS.
But I have already encapsulated the MQ API myself, just have a new request to set the message property.
If change to XMS, many codes need to be changed. |

Building an RFH2 header - which is where JMS stores the properties - will require a lot of code.

| Thanks, seems I couldn't use the RFH2 to set the property. I might append the property to the message tail. |

I'm surprised and disapointed to hear that.

You don't want to put custom properties at the END of a message.
You want to put them at the FRONT of a message.
If you somehow can't manage to use an RFH2 header, that is.
