I understand that AMI has certain restrictions in flexibility compared to
the MQI. Where are these limitations documented ?
I noticed when using the AMI Administration Tool (part of SupportPac MAOG) that there is no scope in the policy to define the ReplyToQ. Is this a limitation of AMI or can you create a new DTD and XML file to include a tag for ReplyTOQ or any other MQMD field ?

Hi David,

The way to do this requires a number of steps.

- If you are requesting a system generated response (eg. COD,COA) ensure that the policy you are using has the 'sender' section set to request whichever reply you are looking for.

- Set up a receiver service referring to the queue you wish to be the reply to queue

- Specify the 'ReplyTo' receiver service from the last step in the Send call.

I don't know which language you are programming in, but in the C Object Interface the amSndSend call allows you to specify the handle of a receiver service to use as the reply to queue. I should imagine the concept is similar for the other languages.

If your application is not requesting a system generated response, but is expecting the receiving app. to send a response, the receiving app can get the handle of the sender service to which it should place its reply from the amRcvReceive call - again in the C Object Interface.

HTH

I need to choose whether to use the AMI API or one of the lower level APIs (MQI etc). I am attracted to the API, but perceive the following limitations:
1. Cannot pass MQMD context info (UserIdentifier, PutApplName, ApplOriginData) with a message put using amSendMsg. Security implications?
2. Not possible to specify one policy when initialising a session, but one or more different policies when doing subsequent message puts. (Strange, since both amInitialize and amSendMsg allow you to specify a policy name, but the latter seems to have no effect). Therefore all messages to a queue are subject to same policy: cannot overide default queue priority for example.
3. I can find little help on how to use policy handlers - sample code etc.

Can anyone confirm whether these are genuine limitations, or just down to my ignorance? If the latter, can anyone explain how to deal with these issues?
Many thanks - Neil
