Talk about confusing!

The CSD04 read me says the below:
quote>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
   o Firewall Support

     The restrictions on the use of the local address property, used to
support firewall
     requirements from base Java and JMS have been removed in fix pack
CSD04.

     However the following new information will be put into the JMS
publication
     information under firewall support and will be marked as iSeries only.

        When using Local Address for firewall sockets the HostName MUST
always be
        explicitly stated in the Java/JMS calls even if the Client and
Server are on the
        same machine.

        For example, use setHostName(< actual local host name >) on
        MQTopicConnectionFactory to enable the firewall support to work
correctly when the
        Client and Server are on the same machine. Do not allow the HostName
to default to
        localhost if firewall support is required.
end quote>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Why in the world would they mark it as only iSeries?!?!? And does it (is it
supposed to) work for every other platform?


So then I went to look at the memo.ptf on a pc that has had csd04 applied,
and I see a whole lot of new stuff related to LOCAL ADDRESS. Looks like this
would solve the problem.

The developer has told me that his mq jar files are 5.3 CSD4. He says that
they all have a date of 06-17-2003. So I went to look at mine, (I know for a
fact I am at 5.3 CSD04) and they all have a date of 03-06-2004!

I am guessing he doesn't have 5.3 CSD4 jar files?

I zipped up all my jar files from the future and asked him to try creating a
QCF with these files installed. Lets see what happens...

Peter,

>>>The LOCAL_ADDRESS field is not mentioned at all in the MQ Using

I believe that CSD4 of WMQI V5.3 includes support for the LOCALADDRESS
property. The memo.ptf file for this CSD discusses this property, and
others introduced in CSD4 as well. These new properties are not yet
included in the WMQ Using Java manual.
