One way to populate your message set with message definitions is to import existing application message formats. You can import the following message formats into a message set:
When you import one of these formats, a new message model is created consisting of the elements, attributes, groups and types needed to represent your message format. You choose the name of the message definition file; if it already exists the content is deleted and recreated as part of the import operation.
The new message model created can consist of both logical and physical information, if appropriate physical formats exist in the message set at the time of the import.
All imports can be performed using the New Message Definition File wizard. In addition you can also import C header files, COBOL copybooks, XML DTDs, or XML Schema using the mqsicreatemsgdefs command line utility. mqsicreatemsgdefs allows you to import several message format files in a single operation, and allows you to create a new message set (based on an existing message set) into which the message definition files will be placed.
WSDL definitions can be imported using the mqsicreatemsgdefsfromwsdl command line utility. This will only import a single WSDL definition at a time.
