Components
The File Transfer Application consists of the following main components:
- Sender
- This is a program that puts a file stored in the local file system onto
a queue, as one or more WebSphere MQ messages.
- Receiver
- This is a program that receives files and stores them in a local file
system.
- File Transfer Application GUI
- The GUI allows non-experienced users to send files, receive files, and
create a list of sent/received files in an intuitive way. Users of the GUI
need no knowledge of how the underlying WebSphere MQ technology works.
Available
when installed from a WebSphere MQ server CD.
- A command line interface
- This provides a way for experienced users to send and receive files
by issuing commands from the command line. Additional functionality is available
with the File Transfer Application GUI. Users of the command line interface need to have an understanding
of how WebSphere MQ works.
