Syntax help

 

We can obtain help for the syntax of any control command by entering the command followed by a question mark. WebSphere MQ responds by listing the syntax required for the selected command.

The syntax shows all the parameters and variables associated with the command. Different forms of parentheses are used to indicate whether a parameter is required. For example:

CmdName [-x OptParam ] ( -c | -b ) argument

where:

CmdName

Is the command name for which you have requested help.

[-x OptParam ]

Square brackets enclose one or more optional parameters. Where square brackets enclose multiple parameters, we can select no more than one of them.

( -c | -b )

Brackets enclose multiple values, one of which select. In this example, select either flag c or flag b.

argument

A mandatory argument.
