Hi all

I am an MQ administrator who knows nothing about writing and compiling code.

I need to compile a security exit based on sample code provided by a partner organisation (DTCC - Depository Trust Clearing Corporation), but I don't know how.

I have tried compiler options like this:

g++ -shared -fPIC -O3 -m64 mqmdh001.c -o mqmdh001.so

(which compiles, but can't be loaded by MQ)

and this:

cc -xarch=native -mt -G -o mqmdh003.so mqmdh003.c -I/opt/mqm/inc -L/opt/mqm/lib64 -R/opt/mqm/lib64 -R/usr/lib/64 -lmqm -lmqmcs -lmqmzse -lsocket -lnsl -ldl

(which fails to compile)

The truth is, I'm flailing around in the dark. Can anyone point me in the right direction with some useful compiler arguments?

I'm on Solaris 10, MQ 6.0.2.2, g++ version 3.4.6, cc version unknown

Many thanks

Mike

You've apparently already found this page:
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/wmqv6/v6r0/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.mq.csqzae.doc/ic17700_.htm

What are the errors from the second compile command?

Also, you should read my post here on exit development:
http://www.mqseries.net/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=20523

If they are a partner then why aren't they providing you with the Solaris shared Library?

Thanks for the responses Roger / MQJeff

Jeff - I'll send through the compiler errors tomorrow when I'm in the office.

Roger - Yes, I had seen your page on exits. My problem is that I don't know how to go from raw code, to something that can be used by MQ. The manual pages for the compilers are packed full of obscure flags and options, and I wasn't able to decipher what I needed to make them work for my code on my system.

DTCC don't provide the full shared library - I assume that it needs to be compiled specifically for a given system, MQ version and configuration. It also needs to have a couple of customer-specific values written into it before compilation.

This guy had a problem compiling the same code, but obviously knows how to drive a C compiler better than I do:
http://www.mqseries.net/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=230322&sid=eefebd427dc391e1c53a8917ab252b52

I'll attach the errors tomorrow morning, and perhaps that will clarify things.

Thanks again

Mike

More detailed compile/link commands for exits on solaris are also given in the MQ App Prog Guide

Thanks Glenn

One of the commands I tried was taken from that page, but it fails (see below)

Here's what I've got...

If I run this:
g++ -m64 -shared -fPIC -O3 mqmdh003.c -o mqmdh003.so
Or this:
g++ -m64 -shared -fPIC -O3 mqmdh003.c -o mqmdh003.so -I/opt/mqm/inc -L/opt/mqm/lib64 -R/opt/mqm/lib64 -R/usr/lib/64 -lmqm -lmqmcs -lmqmzse -lsocket -lnsl -ldl

Then an output file is generated without any errors. The second command generates a slightly larger output file than the first

If I try to run the channel, calling either of these files, I get the same result:

Code:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
25/02/10 02:01:40 PM - Process(18095.1) User(mqm) Program(runmqchl_nd)
AMQ6175: The system could not dynamically load the shared library
'/var/mqm/exits64/mqmdh003.so'. The system returned error message 'ld.so.1:
runmqchl_nd: fatal: libstdc++.so.6: open failed: No such file or directory'.
The queue manager will continue without this module.

EXPLANATION:
This message applies to UNIX systems. The shared library
'/var/mqm/exits64/mqmdh003.so' failed to load correctly due to a problem with
the library.
ACTION:
Check the file access permissions and that the file has not been corrupted.
----- amqxufnx.c : 1159 -------------------------------------------------------
25/02/10 02:01:40 PM - Process(18095.1) User(mqm) Program(runmqchl_nd)
AMQ9535: User exit not valid.

EXPLANATION:
Channel program 'XXXXXXXX.YYYYYYYY' ended because user exit
'/var/mqm/exits64/mqmdh003.so(MQMDH003)' is not valid.
ACTION:
Ensure that the user exit is specified correctly in the channel definition, and
that the user exit program is correct and available.


Alternatively, if I use this Sun C Compiler command (from the App Prog Guide):
cc -xarch=native -mt -G -o mqmdh003.so mqmdh003.c -I/opt/mqm/inc -L/opt/mqm/lib64 -R/opt/mqm/lib64 -R/usr/lib/64 -lmqm -lmqmcs -lmqmzse -lsocket -lnsl -ldl

then it fails with the following output:

Any ideas?

I am not familiar with your platform, but BlockIP2, which is a security exit too, provides the following compile information in its manual:

Solaris_x86 and MQ version 6.0 / 7.0

gcc -c -m64 BlockIP2.c -ansi -fPIC -DUNIX -DSOLARIS -
D_REENTRANT -DHNLUP -I/opt/mqm/inc -Wall
/usr/ccs/bin/amd64/ld -64 -mt -G -o BlockIP2 BlockIP2.o -
R/usr/lib/64 -lsocket -lnsl -ldl

Solaris SPARC and MQ version 6.0 / 7.0 using gcc

gcc -I/opt/mqm/inc -m64 -o BlockIP2 BlockIP2.c -G -m64 -L
/usr/lib/64 -lthread -lsocket -lc -lnsl -ldl -DUNIX -
DSOLARIS -D_REENTRANT -DHNLUP


Solaris SPARC and MQ version 6.0 / 7.0 using cc

cc -xarch=v9 -xcode=abs64 -mt -G -o
/var/mqm/exits64/BlockIP2 BlockIP2.c -I/opt/mqm/inc –R
/usr/lib/64 -lsocket -lnsl -ldl -DUNIX -DSOLARIS -
D_REENTRANT -DHNLUP

maybe one of these helps.....

Problem Solved!

I'm going to write this up, in the hope that it helps other hapless MQ Admins who find themselves in a similar position.

This is probably very basic stuff for people in the development community, but it's been a rapid ascent of the learning curve for me.

Following Mr Butcher's suggestions, I found this post by Brian Shelden:
http://osdir.com/ml/network.mq.devel/2006-06/msg00086.html

It introduced me to the "ldd" - list dynamic dependencies - command.

I had compiled the shared library using this:
g++ -m64 -shared -fPIC -O3 mqmdh003.c -o mqmdh003.so -I/opt/mqm/inc -L/opt/mqm/lib64 -R/opt/mqm/lib64 -R/usr/lib/64 -lmqm -lmqmcs -lmqmzse -lsocket -lnsl -ldl

And then ran ldd:

Code:
mike$ ldd mqmdh003.so
        libmqm.so =>     /opt/mqm/lib64/libmqm.so
        libmqmcs.so =>   /opt/mqm/lib64/libmqmcs.so
        libmqmzse.so =>  /opt/mqm/lib64/libmqmzse.so
        libsocket.so.1 =>        /usr/lib/64/libsocket.so.1
        libnsl.so.1 =>   /usr/lib/64/libnsl.so.1
        libdl.so.1 =>    /usr/lib/64/libdl.so.1
        librt.so.1 =>    /usr/lib/64/librt.so.1
        libstdc++.so.6 =>        (file not found)
        libm.so.2 =>     /usr/lib/64/libm.so.2
        libgcc_s.so.1 =>         (file not found)
        libthread.so.1 =>        /lib/64/libthread.so.1
        libc.so.1 =>     /lib/64/libc.so.1
        libmqz.so =>     /opt/mqm/lib64/libmqz.so
        libmp.so.2 =>    /lib/64/libmp.so.2
        libmd5.so.1 =>   /lib/64/libmd5.so.1
        libscf.so.1 =>   /lib/64/libscf.so.1
        libaio.so.1 =>   /lib/64/libaio.so.1
        libdoor.so.1 =>  /lib/64/libdoor.so.1
        libuutil.so.1 =>         /lib/64/libuutil.so.1
        libgen.so.1 =>   /lib/64/libgen.so.1
        /platform/SUNW,Sun-Fire-V440/lib/sparcv9/libc_psr.so.1
        /platform/SUNW,Sun-Fire-V440/lib/sparcv9/libmd5_psr.so.1


It showed me that two dependencies couldn't be found.

I had a search around the system, and found that my sysadmin had thoughtfully included them for me in /usr/sfw/lib/64

So I added a "-L" (libraries to use when linking/compiling) and a "-R" (libraries to use at runtime) entry for this directory.

The command now reads:
g++ -m64 -shared -fPIC -O3 -pthreads mqmdh001.c -o mqmdh001.so -I/opt/mqm/inc -L/opt/mqm/lib64 -L/usr/sfw/lib/64 -R/opt/mqm/lib64 -R/usr/lib/64 -R/usr/sfw/lib/64 -lmqm -lmqmcs -lmqmzse -lnsl -ldl -lrt -lgcc -lsocket

This time, ldd was able to identify all of the dependencies:

Code:
mike$ ldd mqmdh003.so
        libmqm.so =>     /opt/mqm/lib64/libmqm.so
        libmqmcs.so =>   /opt/mqm/lib64/libmqmcs.so
        libmqmzse.so =>  /opt/mqm/lib64/libmqmzse.so
        libnsl.so.1 =>   /usr/lib/64/libnsl.so.1
        libdl.so.1 =>    /usr/lib/64/libdl.so.1
        librt.so.1 =>    /usr/lib/64/librt.so.1
        libsocket.so.1 =>        /usr/lib/64/libsocket.so.1
        libstdc++.so.6 =>        /usr/sfw/lib/64/libstdc++.so.6
        libm.so.2 =>     /usr/lib/64/libm.so.2
        libgcc_s.so.1 =>         /usr/sfw/lib/64/libgcc_s.so.1
        libthread.so.1 =>        /lib/64/libthread.so.1
        libc.so.1 =>     /lib/64/libc.so.1
        libmqz.so =>     /opt/mqm/lib64/libmqz.so
        libmp.so.2 =>    /lib/64/libmp.so.2
        libmd5.so.1 =>   /lib/64/libmd5.so.1
        libscf.so.1 =>   /lib/64/libscf.so.1
        libaio.so.1 =>   /lib/64/libaio.so.1
        libdoor.so.1 =>  /lib/64/libdoor.so.1
        libuutil.so.1 =>         /lib/64/libuutil.so.1
        libgen.so.1 =>   /lib/64/libgen.so.1
        /platform/SUNW,Sun-Fire-V440/lib/sparcv9/libc_psr.so.1
        /platform/SUNW,Sun-Fire-V440/lib/sparcv9/libmd5_psr.so.1


Hey presto, everything works

Many thanks to everyone who helped

Unfortunately, the g++ compiler is not on the supported list, which is:

Quote:

•Sun ONE Studio 9 Compiler Collection (C and C++)
•Sun Studio 10 Software for Solaris Platforms
•Sun ONE Studio 11 Enterprise Edition for Solaris (C and C++)
•Sun Studio 12 [see section note 1]


If you have any problems, IBM will refuse support of the exit unless it is built with a supported compiler.

As a matter of interest, why did you not try Mr Butcher's recommendation, or this command which comes straight out of the WMQ Intercomms manual?

Quote:

Figure 92. Sample compiler and linker commands for channel exits on Solaris
$ cc -xarch=v9 -mt -G -o /var/mqm/exits64/exit exit.c -I/opt/mqm/inc
-L/opt/mqm/lib64 -R/opt/mqm/lib64 -R/usr/lib/64 -lmqm -lmqmcs -lmqmzse -lsocket
-lnsl -ldl

Hi Zonko

Running with an unsupported compiler doesn't feel like a big issue (though I'm sure some will disagree). The in-house guys here use GCC, so I was able to get a better quality of help for this. If I encounter problems with this exit, then I'm already better placed and better educated to fix them myself than to phone IBM. So I'm happy enough.

I was indeed intending to use MrButcher's suggested commands, but I wanted to know what the various -Dxxxxxx options did before I ran them. After all, this is a matter of self-education as well as trying to get the job done.

It was whilst searching for these that I found Brian Shelden's post, and the oh-so-useful ldd

If you have a look at my earlier posts, you will see that I did try to run the command from the Intercomm (& App Prog) Guide. It failed, though, for reasons that I still don't understand.

I hope that elucidates things

Cheers

Mike

Mike - Have you since upgraded to WMQ v7 - and were there any problems with this exit?

zpat - this reply is probably too late for you, but might have some use to others.

Yes, we have upgraded. To 7.5.0.0. Today. And we have migrated to linux too. And in the dev environment we have run a very similar compile command which has worked fine.

This was it:
g++ -m64 -shared -fPIC -o /opt/rbos/mq/exits64/mqmdh003.so mqmdh003.c -I/opt/mqm/inc

Best regards

After an upgrade to Solaris 10, Sun Studio 12.3 and MQ 7.1 we had a lot of problems with our MSG Exits failing and crashing the pooler process.

It is still early days, but it looks like our problems were due to the way we compiled the exits. A lot of the PIC switches are deprecated in Sun Studio 12.3.

Our last compilation attempt seems stable. This is what we used:
cc -xcode=pic32 -m64 -G -c ourExit.c -I/opt/mqm/inc -R/opt/mqm/lib64 -R/usr/lib/64 -lsocket -lnsl -ldl

Ok, to make everyone's life easier, I have created an MQ client-side security exit that is designed to work with DTCC's server-side security exit. You do not need to compile & link anything, just install the DLL/shared library and you are good to go.

For more details see:
http://www.mqseries.net/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=65993

Or see:
