Hello,
I implemented a small Java-program based on the ASF-Samples of IBM and it works fine with sender and receiver on windows and/or unix-systems. If the receiver is on the Mainframe the messagebody does not get converted to EBCDIC. I tried a lot, but I did not get a solution how to set the type of the destination object, so that it will be correctly transformed.
Hope someone can help

Your mainframe program is doing the wrong thing. Your java program is likely correct.
Your mainframe program needs to specify the CONVERT option to the MQGET.

Jeff is quite correct.
Now if you have too big a discrepancy between your MQ versions and cannot get the mainframe's get with convert option to work right ..., we used some trick using JMS.
In the JNDI settings for the queue to the MF specify ccsid = 500. This way the Mainframe did not have to translate.
You could as well alternatively have the sender channel translate.
Enjoy |

Hi,
I found one possible solution, this is as follows:
mark the sending queue as non JMS-Queue with:
((MQQueue)mqq).setTargetClient(JMSC.MQJMS_CLIENT_NONJMS_MQ);
and on the TextMessage set the JMS-Properties:
mvsProperties.put("JMS_IBM_Format","MQSTR");
mvsProperties.put("JMS_IBM_Character_Set","1141"); // DE with €
these properties override the MQ-header data
Thanks to all and GOOGLE

| You could probably have gotten away with using a TextMessage and having the MQSTR format supplied for you. |
