MSMQSETQPROP

Sets the properties of a specific queue.

Syntax

CALL MSMQSETQPROP(qid, rc, propids, value1 ,value2, ...>);

Required Arguments

qid
Numeric, input
Specifies the queue identifier that represents the format name of the queue.
rc
Numeric, output
Provides the return code from the CALL routine. If an error occurs, then the return code is nonzero. A return code of -1 reflects a SAS internal error. Otherwise, it represents an MSMQ error code. You can use the SAS function SYSMSG() to obtain a textual description of the return code.
propids
Character, input
Identifies one or more properties that you want to set. This parameter is a character string with each applicable property separated by a comma. For each property identified by propids , you must provide a value parameter that specifies the value to use to set the property. The following propids and values are valid:
AUTHENTICATE
Specifies whether the queue accepts only authenticated messages. The following values are valid:
NONE
Specifies the queue accepts either authenticated or non-authenticated messages.
ALWAYS
Specifies the queue always requires authenticated messages.
BASEPRIORITY
Specifies the base priority for all messages that are sent to a public queue. The value is a numeric that ranges from -32768 to 32767, where 32767 is the highest priority and 0 is the default priority.
JOURNAL
Specifies if messages are also copied to its journal queue. The following values are valid:
NONE
Specifies that messages removed from the queue are discarded.
ALWAYS
Specifies that messages removed from the queue are always stored in its journal queue.
JOURNAL_QUOTA
Specifies the maximum size (in kilobytes) of the journal queue.
LABEL
Specifies a description of the queue. The value is a character string.
PRIV_LEVEL
Specifies the privacy level that is required by the queue. The value is a character string. The following values are valid:
NONE
Specifies that the queue accepts only non-private (clear-text) messages.
BODY
Specifies that the queue accepts only private (encrypted) messages.
OPTIONAL
Specifies that the queue accepts both private and non-private messages.
QUOTA
Specifies the maximum size (in kilobytes) of the queue.
TYPE
Specifies the type of service that is provided by the queue. The value of the TYPE property is a universal unique identifier (UUID) in the form of a character string that represents the binary data.

Example

This example sets the queue properties.
length msg $ 200;
   rc=0;
   CALL MSMQSETQPROP(qid, rc, "AUTHENTICATE,BASEPRIORITY,JOURNAL,
                               JOURNAL_QUOTA,LABEL,PRIV_LEVEL,QUOTA,
                              TYPE", "ALWAYS", 1, "ALWAYS", 32767,
                              "New Label", "BODY", 32767,
                              "0A0B0C0D0E0F0102030405060708090A");
   if rc ^= 0 then do;
    put 'MSMQSetQProp: failed';
    msg = sysmsg();
    put msg;
   end;
   else put 'MSMQSetQProp: succeeded';
