I want to store a java String in the MQMessage class. For this I see that there are many ways to do

writeBytes(String s)
writeChars(String s)
writeString(String s)
writeUTF(String s)

I am confused which one to use. Can u pls let me know the differences among these four and which one do u recommend.

The string message i put on a queue is being processed by a mainframe CICS transaction

Thanks in advance

I think it is easier to use a JMS TextMessage so you simply use
the

Code:

setText(java.lang.String string)

Hi,

I find writeString() works just fine when sending messages to the mainframe. Just make sure you set MQMessage format to MQC.MQFMT_STRING.

later

Actually the method writeString() writes a string , converting it to the codeset identified by the characterSet member variable.
The default value of the characterSet variable is MQC.MQCCSI_Q_MGR, which specifies that the character data in the application message data is in the queue manager's character set.
Additional character set values are supported like
850 - commonly used ASCII codeset
819 - the ISO ASCII
1208 - UTF.

But the writeUTF() method writes the string in the UTF format only.
