We plan on requiring all MQ messages to use XML so the XML viewer is a nice feature. However, I have been experimenting with MQRFH2 headers and noted that the XML viewer does not work because presumably it is trying to parse the MQRFH2 as part of the message. The message content after the RFH2 is the same XML it parsed successfully before I hadded the header.

Is there any possibility that the XML Viewer might be enhanced to bypass the MQRFH header or some similar XML viewing capability added to the MQRFH2 tab if the message body is XML?

Hi Douglas,

Actually, I'm going to go with the latter style. I'm going to add the XML Viewer to the RFH2 panel. I'll most likely have a radio button where you can select between plain data and XML tree.

As soon as I get the new security exits ported to the mainframe, I'll start working on MQVE enhancements (most likely late summer).

I already have several must-haves for the next release but I will add your request to the top 10 list.

Regards,
Roger Lacroix

Sounds great. Thank you.

I did want to pass along one other issue I ran into with MQRFH2. In my early tests I was not always getting the length field correct in the length/value pairs. This typically resulted in MQVE attempting to retrieve messages from the queue and then just stopping with the message box open with "processing 1 of 1"and the progress bar having just barely moved. The cancel button still worked to end whatever was happening but no message was shown.
This behavior occurred both when I forgot to include the length field entirely and also when the length specified was shorter than the actual field (22 vs. 24 chars in my test case). However, the MQRFH-STRUCLENGTH field was always correct.
When I got the fields and lengths correct MQVE worked as it should.

Although I don't think it matters I will also mention that the Encoding, CCSID and NameValueCCSID fields of MQRFH2 are the values 17, 307 and 696 all of which are incorrect. This is a server problem that I'm pursuing with the vendor and sounds like it will be remedied soon. (The actual values on the message in the queue are correct[273, 819, 1208], they just aren't being presented to the application correctly.)

Hi,

I'll see if I can add more exception handling around RFH2 folder length fields.

Regards,
