You can add message definitions to your message set by importing application message formats that already exist.
You can import the following message formats into your message set:
When you import one of these formats, a new message model is created that consists of the elements, attributes, groups, and types that are required to represent your message format. You can 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 that is created can consist of both logical and physical information, if appropriate physical formats exist in the message set at the time of the import.
To find out which wizards to use to import message formats, see Ways to create message definitions.
You can also import C header files, COBOL copybooks, XML DTD files, or XML Schema files by using the mqsicreatemsgdefs command line utility. The mqsicreatemsgdefs command 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 are placed.
WSDL definitions can be imported by using the mqsicreatemsgdefsfromwsdl command line utility. This utility imports only one WSDL definition at a time.
