Communications adapters

WebSphere MQ Everyplace provides the following communications adapters. You can modify the behavior of these adapters using Java properties. For more information on how to use these properties and their effect on each communications adapter, refer to the WebSphere MQ Everyplace Java Programming Reference.

Communications adapters

MQeMidpHttpAdapter
Provides support for reading and writing to the network using the HTTP 1.0 protocol in a MIDP environment.

MQeTcpipHistoryAdapter
Provides support for reading and writing to the network using the TCP protocol. This adapter provides the best TCP performance by chaching recently used data. Therefore, we recommend that you use this adapter.

MQeTcpipLengthAdapter
Provides support for reading and writing to the network using the TCP protocol.

MQeTcpipHttpAdapter
Provides support for reading and writing to the network using the HTTP 1.0 protocol. Also provides support for passing HTTP requests through proxy servers.
Note:
If using the Microsoft JVM, the http:proxyHost and http:proxyPort properties are automatically set by the JVM using the settings in the Internet Explorer. If the use of proxies is not required for WebSphere MQ Everyplace, set the http.proxySet Java property to false.

MQeUdpipBasicAdapter
Provides support for reading and writing to the network using the UDP protocol. This adapter uses only one port on the server. The behaviour of this adapter is particularly sensitive to the various Java property settings, as detailed in the WebSphere MQ Everyplace Java Programming Reference.

MQeWESAuthenticationAdapter
Provides support for passing HTTP requests through WebSphere MQ Everyplace authentication proxy servers and transparent proxy servers.

You can also write your own adapters to tailor WebSphere MQ Everyplace for your own environment. The next section describes some adapter examples that are supplied to help you with this task.
