Installing JAR files to connect to the MQ system

To connect to the MQ system from Studio, you must have the MQ connector-specific JAR files on the same workstation as your Studio installation. These files must be present in Studio to enable configuration of the endpoints and orchestrations.

About this task

The two JAR files to be installed for WebSphere MQ version 5.x and 6.x are:
  • connector.jar
  • com.ibm.mq.jar

Procedure

  1. Open Studio, select Tools > Install Module Providers.
  2. When the Add Provider(s) dialog box is displayed, click the plus (+) button under MQ Connector. A field and a Browse button is displayed.
  3. Click Browse, and use the browse dialog box to locate and select both the JAR files.
  4. Click Open to import the contents of the JAR files.
  5. When the JAR files are listed in the Add Providers dialog box, click OK.

Results

A prompt is displayed to restart Cast Iron Studio and activate the changes.
Note: You must manually restart Studio after it shuts down to apply the changes.

What to do next

You can now create MQ connector endpoints and orchestrations.
