We are trying to connect to the mainframe for a legacy PowerBuilder application...

Now I am trying to connect to MQS and getting an error...

I have defined the External Function

Subroutine MQCONN(String QMgrName, Long Hconn, Long CompCode, Long Reason) Library "mqic.dll"

and when I call the Function

MQCONN(is_queue_manager, ll_hConn, ll_CompCode, ll_Reason)

I get the below error (I have the DLL in the application path)

Any ideas? Did someone connect to MQS using PowreBuilder?

Hi Sufyan;

  If you are running in 32 bit mode, I believe that you need the "mqic32.dll" library.

However, you can also now use a REST API call as well for this ...

Are the MQ DLLs in scope for your application? They should be either in your Workspace, or in your %PATH%.
