Local fix

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  USERS AFFECTED:
  This APAR affects users of the WebSphere Application Server
  Liberty Profile v8.5.5 who wish to deploy the WebSphere MQ
  Resource Adapter into a Liberty Profile instance.
  
  
  Platforms affected:
  MultiPlatform
  
  ****************************************************************
  PROBLEM SUMMARY:
  When the WebSphere MQ V7.5.0.0 or V7.5.0.1 Resource Adapter
  was deployed into a WebSphere Application Server Liberty Profile
  v8.5.5 instance, there were a small number of configuration
  and diagnostic inaccuracies including:
  
  The WebSphere MQ Resource Adapter failed to honour the
  SHARECONVALLOWED property, when the property was set in the
  Liberty Profile configuration files
  
  The WebSphere MQ Resource Adapter produced incorrectly formatted
  diagnostic trace output
  
  The JMS UserID could not be overridden by an application
  performing outbound messaging, with the UserID defaulting to the
  user ID running the Liberty Profile Java Virtual Machine.
  
  The WebSphere MQ Resource Adapter could throw
  NullPointerExceptions if trace of the Liberty Profile tracing
  component was enabled while the WebSphere MQ Resource Adapter
  was also being traced. These NullPointerExceptions were seen
  from the following methods:
  - com.ibm.jms.JMSMessage.toString()
  - com.ibm.mq.jms.MQRoot.hashCode()
  - com.ibm.mq.jms.MQTemporaryQueue.toString()
  

Problem conclusion

• The WebSphere MQ Resource Adapter has been modified to resolve
  the issues described above, to allow the WebSphere MQ Resource
  Adapter to be used in a WebSphere Application Server Liberty
  Profile v8.5.5 instance.
