Mapping of messages flowing through the WebSphere MQ link

This topic describes how messages sent from WebSphere MQ, through the WebSphere MQ link, are mapped to JMS messages, and messages sent to WebSphere MQ, through the WebSphere MQ link, are mapped to JMS messages or non-JMS messages.

Application messages received from a WebSphere MQ application are converted into WebSphere Application Server JMS messages as shown in the table below.

WebSphere MQ or MA88 WebSphere Application Server service integration
WebSphere MQ JMS text message WebSphere Application Server JMS text message
WebSphere MQ JMS bytes message WebSphere Application Server JMS bytes message
WebSphere MQ JMS stream message WebSphere Application Server JMS stream message
WebSphere MQ JMS map message WebSphere Application Server JMS map message
WebSphere MQ JMS object message WebSphere Application Server JMS object message
WebSphere MQ text message WebSphere Application Server JMS text message
Other WebSphere MQ message format WebSphere Application Server JMS bytes message
WebSphere MQ broker control message WebSphere Application Server broker control message
WebSphere MQ broker response message WebSphere Application Server broker response message

When messages are sent by an application through the WebSphere MQ link to a WebSphere MQ network they are converted as shown in the table below. A destination setting on the WebSphere MQ link determines whether JMS messages are forwarded to WebSphere MQ as WebSphere MQ JMS messages which include an MQRFH2 header, or as non-JMS messages. For more information, see Point-to-point messaging with a WebSphere MQ network.

WebSphere Application Server service integration WebSphere MQ or MA88 (choice depends on destination setting)
WebSphere Application Server JMS text message WebSphere MQ JMS text message or WebSphere MQ text message (MQFMT_STRING)
WebSphere Application Server JMS bytes message WebSphere MQ JMS bytes message or WebSphere MQ message (MQFMT_NONE)
WebSphere Application Server JMS stream message WebSphere MQ JMS stream message or WebSphere MQ message (MQFMT_NONE)
WebSphere Application Server JMS map message WebSphere MQ JMS map message or WebSphere MQ message (MQFMT_NONE)
WebSphere Application Server JMS object message WebSphere MQ JMS object message or WebSphere MQ message (MQFMT_NONE)
WebSphere Application Server broker control message WebSphere MQ broker control message
WebSphere Application Server broker response message WebSphere MQ broker response message
