About this book

 

WebSphere MQ products provide application programming services that enable you to write applications in which the constituent programs communicate with each other using message queues.

This book introduces the concepts of messages and queues, and shows you in detail how to design and write applications that use the services that WebSphere MQ provides.

For a full description of the WebSphere MQ programming interface, see the appropriate application programming reference book for your platform. These are:

• Application Programming Reference, SC34-6596

• WebSphere MQ for iSeries Application Programming Reference, SC34-6599

For information on the use of C++, see WebSphere MQ Using C++. For information on the use of Java™, see WebSphere MQ Using Java.

IBM ships sample programs with WebSphere MQ, as explained in Sample WebSphere MQ programs. Also, appendixes B to E give programming examples in the various languages.
