Hi
" why not simply you amqsget / RFHUtil / A.N.Other utility to destructively read all the messages off? Why so desparate to use CLEAR QUEUE?"
This "amqsget / RFHUtil " could be coded in Java with PCF Commands ?

These utilities would simply read the queue until it's empty.
So if you want to write a piece of Java that reads the queue until it's empty, go for it.
The point that I and others are making is that this is a commonly used way of clearing a queue with an open handle on it and there are utilities available to assist if you choose to use them. If you instead choose to roll your own, go for it.

It wasn't 100% clear to me from the initial post whether the amqrmppa was acting on behalf of a message channel, or a client channel.
Assuming the former, a receiver channel will keep a cache of queue handles open to avoid the overheads associated with opening the queue each time a message is sent down the channel.
If the handle hasn't been used recently then it should be pruned automatically, while if messages are still arriving over the channel you'd need to stop the channel to close the handle.
Using a repeating MQGET doesn't carry the same guarantees as CLEAR QL, for example a message which is locked to a UOW or a browse cursor would be invisible to an MQGET. |

As an aside, app messaging designs using MQ should not have any requirement to "clear queues" or "drain queues". There should be a well-behaved consumer app, or otherwise the messages should not be produced in the first place.
We have hundreds of MQ messaging interfaces using many different producer and consumer app technologies (including Java MQ classes, JMS, IIB, .Net), and we never need to clear any queues under normal operations.

Ok
But This channel could block CLEAR QUEUE operation and giving an 4004 Error ? |

... and in any case, when I'm asked to clear any prod queue, I get a signed waiver from mgt. relieving me of any downstream responsibility for loss of data.

Any application, which has a handle on a queue, blocks CLEAR QLOCAL.
This could be
- a channel
- the DLQ handler
- other application

If you are trying to use MO71 to clear a queue and you can't because someone has the queue open then you can use the good old fashioned way of getting every message off the queue. In the message browse window just right click and then select 'Apply to all messages'. Your Delete button will change to 'Delete All'. Pressing that will now delete all messages from the queue.
Cheers,
Paul.
