Update the values as you wish. The following explains the meaning for the Preference settings:
- Warn if Queue is empty - If you do not want to be told when a newly openned queue is emtpy, then deselect this checkbox.
- Size of each column (10-1024) - You can select the how MQ Visual Browse presents the messages in the queue. You can have a column of data as small as 10 characters or as large as 1024 characters.
- Max. size of each message to retrieve - You can limit how much of the messages are retrieve from a local or remote queue manager. Note: This may be important when the messages are very large. If you have a slow network then it could be minutes or even hours to retrieve all of the large messages of a queue.
- Max. number of messages to retrieve - If you have hundreds or thousands of messages in a queue, it may not be feasable to retrieve all of them. Note: If you have a slow network then it could be minutes or even hours to retrieve all of the large messages of a queue.
- Queue Prefix for Temporary Dynamic Queues - When th user clicks the "List Queue" button in the "Open Queue" window, MQ Visual Browse creates a temporary dynamic queue for communicating with the Queue Manager's Command Server. At some companies, security has been turned on so that a user cannot create queues with a CSQ prefix. Therefore, insert your application specific prefix that allows you to create temporary dynamic queues. e.g. HR.ABC
- CommProfileDB Directory - You can specify where MQ Visual Browse will store the CommProfileDB.properties file. The CommProfileDB.properties file contains all of the information necessary to connect to a queue manager (remote or local).
To save your preferences, click the Ok button. To quit or cancel from the Preferences popup menu, clck the Cancel button.
If you clicked the Ok button, then you should receive the "Preferences Saved" popup menu.
