Hello All,
I am a newbie to MQSeries and JMS. I am trying to send a message using the MQseries adapter for Java to an MQSeries server linked to an MVS mainframe. The messages must be encoded in EBCDIC. The message being sent includes backslashes ''. When I send the message, it gets converted in the queue as Ö.
I have the message set up accordingly:
sendMsg.characterSet = MQC.MQENC_NATIVE;
sendMsg.format=MQC.MQFMT_STRING;
Anyone else run into this problem?
Thanks for your help,
Rich

Rich,
the first thing to note is that you are setting the 'characterSet' attribute with a constant for the 'encoding' attribute. The default for the characterSet is MQC.MQCCSI_Q_MGR (=CCSID 819).
Secondly, you need to know what CCSID your target queue manager is running with. Many MVS queue managers I've seen are using the default provided by IBM, which is 500. The 'special' characters are not properly converted between 819 and 500. If you are in the US, a 'good' CCSID value that should solve your conversion issues, is 37.
The /390 queue manager needs to be bounced after the change (QMCCSID value in the CSQ6SYSP macro). Your MQ/390 Admin will know what to do.
Hope that helps,
Stefan

Stefan,
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. I got in touch with the MQSeries folks, and they gave me the right CCSID and encoding values. |
