Configuring connection to the WebSphere MQ native server in a properties file

The connection to the WebSphere MQ native server can also be configured in a properties file. If the Hostname, Port, and Channel is not specified in the component fields, the component loads a mq.properties file from the classloader. An example of a mq.properties shown as follows:

default.hostname=localhost
default.port=7777
default.channel=QM_TEST.SVRCONN

The mq.properties can contain multiple MQ Queue Managers definition. The format is:

name.hostname
name.port
name.channel

where the name is the queue manager name. For example, the mq.properties file can contain:

default.hostname=localhost
default.port=7777
default.channel=DEFAULT.SVRCONN
test.hostname=localhost
test.port=7778
test.channel=QM_TEST.SVRCONN

The mq.properties also supports the optional userID, password, and CCSID properties, which are required only for authentication. For example:

default.hostname=localhost
default.port=7777
default.channel=DEFAULT.SVRCONN 
default.userID=mqm
default.password=mqm
default.CCSID=1208

To call the mq.properties, add it to the Dependencies table.

If the Route with this component is deployed in Runtime, the component calls the mq.properties file from <TalendRuntimePath>/container/etc folder.
