Help! In VB.Net, the System.String datatype is inherently Unicode, whereas in VB6 it was inherently ASCII. Here is the problem:
If you take the following 3 characters and write it to a queue without .Net, if you examine the message in hexadecimal you will see:
The string we are writing in: XHO
The hexadecimal representation: 58 48 4F
Data length: 3
However, if you take the same 'XHO' string, but this time from VB.Net, and write it to a queue you get:
The string we are writing in: XHO
The hexadecimal representation: 58 00 48 00 4F 00
Data length: 6
When Websphere sees the Unicode, he pads each character with an extra empty byte. Does anyone know of a way to prevent this from occurring? Or alternatively, does anyone know how to write the message into the queue byte for byte instead of using a string? |

Hi,
I have moved your post from the Capitalware forum to the MQSeries API Support forum because it really has nothing to do with Capitalware's products. Plus I know very little about VB or VB.NET (I'm a Java guy  ).
Regards,
Roger Lacroix
