The Oracle Procedural Gateway Visual Workbench for WebSphere MQ (referred to in this guide as "Visual Workbench"), is a development tool that simplifies integrating Oracle applications with non-Oracle message queuing applications. It is used by developers who write Oracle applications that communicate with non-Oracle messaging and queuing applications, using a procedural gateway for a message queuing system.
Procedural gateways for message queuing enable Oracle applications to send and retrieve messages from message queuing systems. For more information, see the gateway installation guide for your platform.
The Oracle 10g release of the Oracle Procedural Gateway for WebSphere MQ provides access to WebSphere MQ services. Read this guide if you are responsible for tasks such as:
Administering the gateway
Setting up gateway security
Using the gateway
Diagnosing gateway errors
You must understand the fundamentals of your operating system, the procedural gateways, PL/SQL, the Oracle server, and MQSeries software before using this guide to install, configure, or administer the gateway.
This document is intended for application developers who install and use the Visual Workbench on their workstations.
