I'm trying to kludge some legacy connectivity into one of our newer applications, and this marks my first foray into MQ. We have a middleware server that accepts an XML message delivered via MQ; converts this into a proprietary request for our ancient system of record, and then delivers a response on a reply queue in a similar XML format.
I have a sample of the input and output XML structure, and the MQ host, target queue, and reply queue. What I do not have is a clue as to where to begin.
Is there a decent tutorial available for building a simply request/response mechanism with OpenMQ or one of the other free MQ libraries?
Thanks!
The Oracle developers guide for OpenMQ would prob be a good place to start:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E19798-01/821-1796/index.html
Gives you example code, explains how to interact with it, etc.
