Adding MQCIH statically in an MQ binding

WebSphere® ESB supports adding MQCIH header information statically without using a mediation module.

There are various ways to add MQCIH header information to a message, for example by using the Header Setter mediation primitive. It may be useful to add this header information statically, without the use of an additional mediation module. Static header information, including the CICS® program name, the transaction ID, and other data format header details, can be defined and added as part of the MQ Binding.

WebSphere MQ, the MQ CICS Bridge, and CICS must be configured for MQCIH header information to be added statically.

You can use WebSphere Integration Developer to configure the MQ Import with the static values that are required for the MQCIH header information.

When a message arrives and is processed by the MQ Import and a check is made to see if MQCIH header information is already present in the message. If the MQCIH is present, the static values defined in the MQ Import are used to override the corresponding dynamic values in the message. If the MQCIH is not present, one is created in the message and the static values defined in the MQ Import are added.

The static values defined in the MQ Import are specific to a method. You can specify different static MQCIH values for different methods within the same MQ Import.

This facility is not used to provide default values if the MQCIH does not contain specific header information. This is because a static value defined in the MQ Import will override a corresponding value provided in the incoming message.
