Hi,
When you install MQSeries, few samples are also installes under toolsCSamples. Take a look at these samples.
Regards
Ved

I don't think MQSeries API is available for C#.

MQ since v5.1 ships with MQAX, the MQ ActiveX library. This allows COM-based environments like Delphi and VB6 to access MQ via automation interfaces. You could even connect to MQ via a VBA macro in an Excel spreadsheet, and the MQAX examples show how.
.NET does COM interop quite well, and so .NET apps can use the same MQAX library. A necessary step is to create the interop assembly for MQAX - which is one line in a makefile or a couple of clicks in Visual Studio .NET.
There is a related discussion in the MQ Support API forum, see
http://www.mqseries.net/phpBB/viewtopic.php?p=11961
Also I believe you can get a working sample with source code at:

Hi D,
Why did you do the "sn" (Strong Name) command in your makefile?
Note: On line 57 of your mqtest.cs program you have a typo (uppercase the "W"):
| Code: |
| Message.WriteString(.... |
P.S. Can I post your C# / MQ sample code to my web site (appropriately labelled - of course)?
later
Roger... |

re: typo - thanks.
That happened because I had used the MQAX from the MA7B supportpac (going WAY back). Apparently the interface for the MA7B library had a lower-case w, and it was changed for the version of MQAX shipped in MQ v5.1 and up. My makefile was using the old lib, which meant my code used the old method. I updated the code and the makefile and re-posted it to
http://hosting.msugs.ch/cheeso9/dl/mq-dotnet.zip
re: sn
this is the .net SDK tool that builds a strong-name key pair. It is necessary if you want to register an assembly for shared usage on the machine. (Register in the GAC). It is not necessary for DLLs that will be used by only a single app. So it's not really necessary in this example. I was fiddling with GAC registration and left the sn in the makefile.
you can post the sample - yes! Thanks for your efforts on that score.
-D
