Hi folks,
I want to avoid hard coding of queue manager names and other object names in the WMQI message flows so that i dont have to change the names at each node every time when i move from development to testing and production platforms.
i know there is some thing called a Promote property is that what we have to use to avoid hardcoding. please let me know asap.
Thanks a ton

Promote works only from 'sub' flow to 'main' flow, so this doesn't solve your problem.
For queue-manager names there is a solution, only write to the queue-manager of the broker and leave this property blank. Use MQ remote queues or clustering to deliver messages on other queue-managers.
In WBIMB 5.0 this is solved, some attributes are 'promoted' to the broker-archive file and can be set before deploying. _________________ Jan Fluitsma

I thought you can promote property in main flow also, which needs to be set when deploying also. I need to test this one! _________________ Kiran

Yes, you can. If you promote a property in any flow, that property can be set in two places. The first place is as a property of the node that represents the flow when it is inserted as a subflow.
The second is just in the Properties of the main flow. That is, if you right click your MQInput node, and Promote the queue name, and then right click on the flow in the list of flows and select 'Properties' (or right click on a blank space in the drawing pane), then you can also set the Queue name property.
But I personally haven't used this, and I haven't verified that it will work correctly. I've seen discussions from other people that it does, though. _________________ I am *not* the model of the modern major general. |
