JMS MQ JMSAdmin .binding

Question

Is it possible to specify username and password for queue connection factory? Example here does not describe it.

What I'm looking for is here http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/wsdoc400/v6r0/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.websphere.iseries.doc/info/ae/ae/ucli_pqcfw.html

The properies of QCF:

ASYNCEXCEPTION()
CCSID()
CHANNEL()
CLIENTRECONNECTOPTIONS()
CLIENTRECONNECTTIMEOUT()
COMPHDR()
COMPMSG()
CONNECTIONNAMELIST()
CONNOPT()
FAILIFQUIESCE()
HOSTNAME()
LOCALADDRESS()
MAPNAMESTYLE()
MSGBATCHSZ()
MSGRETENTION()
POLLINGINT()
PORT()
PROVIDERVERSION()
QMANAGER()
RESCANINT()
SENDCHECKCOUNT()
SHARECONVALLOWED()
SSLFIPSREQUIRED()
SSLRESETCOUNT()
SYNCPOINTALLGETS()
TARGCLIENTMATCHING()
TEMPMODEL()
TEMPQPREFIX()
TRANSPORT()
USECONNPOOLING()
VERSION()
WILDCARDFORMAT()

I'm trying to avoid calling createQueueConnection("user", "password") and need these details provided somehow via binding so I can call createQueueConnection()

Answer 1

Your task might be an issue. I don't know if it's even possible to configure this way.

There are some options, such as creating a wrapper factory that handles the user/password so that you don't have to pass around the password all over the code - at least. Spring has one prebuilt for that as well.

Other than that - consider migrate to SSL authentication instead and set the user on the channel through MCA - that might be easier to configure in JNDI.

Answer 2

The JMS API mandates that user name and password are past in on the ConnectionFactory.createConnection call. It is ill-advised that they be stored in the repository.
