Chapter 23. Building your application on Compaq OpenVMS Alpha

This chapter describes the additional tasks, and the changes to the standard tasks, you must perform when building MQSeries for Compaq OpenVMS Alpha applications to run under Compaq OpenVMS Alpha. C and COBOL are supported.

In addition to coding the MQI calls in your source code, you must add the appropriate include files. You should make yourself familiar with the contents of these files. See Appendix F, WebSphere MQ data definition files for a full description.

Note:

Message Queue Interface calls cannot be made from within an AST routine. This is because MQSeries for Compaq OpenVMS Alpha uses AST routines itself and these routines cannot run while another AST routine is active.
