MQSeries.net :: View topic - Standard, fastpath, shared and isolated binding

Hello all,

I would like to learn a little more about the different binding options of MQ. In the programming guide and programming reference four types are described (as options of the MQCONNX call):

- MQCNO_STANDARD_BINDING

- MQCNO_FASTPATH_BINDING

- MQCNO_SHARED_BINDING

- MQCNO_ISOLATED_BINDING

As described in the books with MQCNO_STANDARD_BINDING, application and local QMgr agent run in own processes. With MQCNO_FASTPATH_BINDING the application becomes part of the QMgr and runs in the same process.

With MQCNO_SHARED_BINDING or MQCNO_ISOLATED_BINDING application and local QMgr agent run also in own processes - like for MQCNO_STANDARD_BINDING - but they share "some resources" (MQCNO_SHARED_BINDING) or "do not share resources" (MQCNO_ISOLATED_BINDING).

Now my questions:

1. What is the meaning of "some resources" for MQCNO_SHARED_BINDING?

2. What is the difference between MQCNO_STANDARD_BINDING and MQCNO_SHARED_BINDING/MQCNO_ISOLATED_BINDING?
