Sample programs for IBM MQ for z/OS

This information describes the sample applications that are delivered with IBM® MQ for z/OS®. These samples demonstrate typical uses of the Message Queue Interface (MQI).

IBM MQ for z/OS also provides sample data-conversion exits, described in Writing data-conversion exits.

All the sample applications are supplied in source form; several are also supplied in executable form. The source modules include pseudocode that describes the program logic.

Note: Although some of the sample applications have basic panel-driven interfaces, they do not aim to demonstrate how to design the look and feel of your applications. For more information about how to design panel-driven interfaces for nonprogrammable terminals, see the SAA Common User Access: Basic Interface Design Guide (SC26-4583) and its addendum (GG22-9508). These provide guidelines to help you to design applications that are consistent both within the application and across other applications.
