The Put sample programs

Design of the Put sample program

The program uses the MQOPEN call with the MQOO_OUTPUT option to open the target queue for putting messages.

If it cannot open the queue, the program outputs an error message containing the reason code returned by the MQOPEN call. To keep the program simple, on this and on subsequent MQI calls, the program uses default values for many of the options.

For each line of input, the program reads the text into a buffer and uses the MQPUT call to create a datagram message containing the text of that line. The program continues until either it reaches the end of the input or the MQPUT call fails. If the program reaches the end of the input, it closes the queue using the MQCLOSE call.
