I am having a problem getting arguments passed to a triggered application without the rest of the MQTMC structure. Is there a way of getting args to the app without the MQTMC structure ? I have a generic program that printds a timestamp to a file when it is triggered, the name of the file it writes to is dependant on the Q that caused the trigger message. Is there a way of getting the 'Trigger data' value passed to the app or does my app need to know it's going to be triggered and handle a TMC2 structure ?

No.

You can trigger a shell script that will do whatever it wants with the MQTMC2 and then call your application with whatever data it wants to.

The app could just discard the TMC2 structure; just ignore argv[1] in the code.
