WebSphere Message Service Client for C/C++, Version 2.0.2 Operating Systems: AIX, Linux, Solaris, Windows

XMSC_WMQ_SSL_CIPHER_SPEC

Data type:
String
Property of:
ConnectionFactory

The name of the cipher spec to be used on a secure connection to a queue manager.

The canonical values of this property that apply to XMS are:

For additional information about these values, see WebSphere MQ Security.

The following example shows how this value is supplied at the MQI:

strncpy(pChDef->SSLCipherSpec, "TRIPLE_DES_SHA_US", sizeof(pChDef->SSLCipherSpec));

XMS takes a copy of the first 32 bytes of the string in the correct single-byte code page into the SSLCipherSpec field of the channel definition structure, MQCD before calling MQCONNX.

If a value is specified for the XMSC_WMQ_SSL_CIPHER_SPEC property, this value overrides any value that is specified for the XMSC_WMQ_SSL_CIPHER_SUITE property. If neither of these properties has a specified value, the MQCD.SSLCipherSpec field is filled with space characters.

The XMSC_WMQ_SSL_CIPHER_SPEC property is relevant only if the application connects to a queue manager in client mode.

By default, the property is not set.
