I'm have a problem with IBM.WMQ.MQMessage when i use the WriteString method because when i write a string of 32 characters or any length, the method convert the message to double size.

For example:

str = "hello"
MQMessage mqMsg = new MQMessage();
mqMsg.WriteString(str);

the length of str is 5 characters but when i refer to MessageLength it's show 10...

the method duplicate the length of the string!!

I need help with this problem!!! it's Urgent!!!

Looks like you are using .NET.
.Net stores the string in UNICODE i.e. UTF-16 or CCSID 1200.
Each char is represented by 2 bytes.

Nothing to worry about.
Working as designed....

Enjoy

AFAIK .NET insists on Unicode. It's not a problem as long as whoever's reading the message specifies convert on the get.
