Figure 7-44 Deploy the message flow and message sets to the broker

7.5.3 Create the WebSphere MQ queues

The input and output queues for the message flow need to be created in

WebSphere MQ. Using WebSphere MQ Explorer, create two local queues called

XML.IN and COBOL.OUT. XML.In is defined in the broker’s queue manager. For

testing, COBOL.OUT was also created in the broker’s queue manager, though in

reality it could be defined under any queue manager accessible to the broker’s

queue manager.

7.5.4 Test the message flow

Using RFHUtil, put the Airline1.xml file into the XML.IN queue.

If the message flow is working properly, you will be able to see the transformed

message in the COBOL.OUT queue.

To see the message in its proper format:

1. Select COBOL.OUT in the Queue Name field and click Read Q.

2. Go to the Data tab, select COBOL in the Data Format field, and select the

order.cpy file.

You should be able to see the transformed COBOL message.
