Connecting the Enterprise to the Internet with MQSeries and VisualAge for Java

This redbook helps you integrate IBM's award-winning middleware
MQSeries, the Internet, Java, VisualAge for Java, and existing host
applications. It gives you a broad understanding of what has to be
done to connect Internet/Intranet users to legacy systems in your
enterprise.

This book describes how to develop programs that use MQSeries with
VisualAge for Java. It contains examples that help you write your
first Java applet and Java application, with and without VisualAge.
Another example explains, in detail, how to invoke MQSeries APIs.
The final example shows how a Java applet connects to an IMS
application via a Java application running in the Web server.

The Internet technology provides low-cost easy access to global
communications, while MQSeries connectivity provides high integrity
with assured message delivery and time independence.

Java is considered to be the premier programming language for
Internet applications. The MQSeries Client for Java is written in
this object-oriented language. With this software, the user of an
internet terminal can become a true participant in transactions,
rather than just a giver and receiver of information.

VisualAge for Java is the newest member of the IBM VisualAge family.
This development tool helps you to build Java-compatible
applications, applets and JavaBean components. This redbook
demonstrates how easy it is to build graphical user interfaces and
internet programs using this powerful product.

With MQSeries Version 5, IBM delivers the MQSeries bindings for Java.
This software enables you to write Java server applications that use
MQSeries for messaging. This book includes examples on how server
programs make use of the bindings to communicate with clients, other
server programs and the host.

The IMS Bridge is an implementation of Open Transaction Manager
Access (OTMA). It is part of MQSeries for MVS/ESA. This product
allows clients to access IMS applications on the host.
