Is anyone using C#.Net with IBM MQ?

IBM wrap up the technology into a package called WebSphere. The current
version is 5.1. I'm in the process of downloading the 150MB SDK.

Any tips or hints would be appreciated. (for example, does WebSphere even
allow VS.Net to interface with it? How?)

Thanks!
Dan.
ps. MSMQ is so much easier to program, but it's a client requirement
unfortunately.
 
Daniel,

I don't know that WebSphere supports .NET (then again, it's a guess
based on my perception of what IBM promotes in the marketplace), but it
might support COM, and if it does, then it can support .NET. Also, you
might be able to do some sort of communication using web services.

If you want to connect to MQ through MSMQ, I believe there is a bridge
that will allow you to program against MSMQ but send messages to MQ.

Hope this helps.
 
If I recall, MQ Series has a COM interface, which means that you can
probably use COM Interop.

IBM WebSphere MQ classes for Microsoft .NET

Or use the COM library throug interop.

Nicholas,

Thanks for your reply (to others who replied in the thread so far too)

I notice that IBM's MQ techonology seems to be in WebSphere, which is a new
thing, with it being put in to "MQ Series" before?

What are the stages this technology has been through? Are they major
differences when referencing back to how I'll interface with it?

Thanks again.

Dan.

Dan,

I am not too familiar with the MQ technology, only that there is some
sort of bridge between MSMQ and MQ.

Perhaps other responders in the thread can be of more help.
