Oracle Procedural Gateway and Tools for WebSphere MQ provides access to WebSphere MQ services.
This guide is intended for anyone responsible for installing, configuring, or administering the Oracle Procedural Gateway for WebSphere MQ. It is also for developers writing applications that access message queuing systems, particularly those who need to access queues owned by both WebSphere MQ and other non-Oracle message queuing systems as well as queues owned by Oracle Advanced Queuing (AQ).
Read this guide if you are responsible for tasks such as:
Administering the gateway
Setting up gateway security
Using the gateway
Diagnosing gateway errors
Before using this guide, you must understand the fundamentals of your operating system, the procedural gateways, PL/SQL, the Oracle server, and WebSphere MQ software before using this guide to install, configure, or administer the gateway.
Our goal is to make Oracle products, services, and supporting documentation accessible, with good usability, to the disabled community. To that end, our documentation includes features that make information available to users of assistive technology. This documentation is available in HTML format, and contains markup to facilitate access by the disabled community. Accessibility standards will continue to evolve over time, and Oracle is actively engaged with other market-leading technology vendors to address technical obstacles so that our documentation can be accessible to all of our customers.

All output is shown as it appears. For input, the list of conventions and their meanings are as follows:
example text
: Words or phrases, such as mkdir
and ORACLE
, must be entered exactly as spelled and in the letter case shown. In this example, mkdir
must be entered in lowercase letters and ORACLE
in uppercase letters.
italic text: Italicized uppercase or lowercase, such as your_name, indicates that you must substitute a word or phrase, such as the actual directory name.
BOLD text

{ }: Curly braces indicate that one of the enclosed arguments is required. Do not enter the braces themselves.
|: Vertical lines separate choices.
[ ]: Square brackets enclose optional clauses from which you can choose one or none. Do not enter the brackets themselves.
Other punctuation, such as commas, quotation marks or the pipe symbol (|) must be entered as shown unless otherwise specified. Directory names, file IDs, and so on appear in the required letter case in examples. The same convention is used when these names appear in text, and the names are highlighted in bold. The use of italics indicates that those portions of a file ID that appear in italics can vary.
Gateway commands, file IDs reserved words, MS-DOS commands, keywords, and environment variables appear in uppercase in examples and text. Reserved words must always be entered as shown; they have reserved meanings within the Oracle system.
