All:
I have released the next beta v0.3.8 of MQ Visual Edit.
The following enhancements / fixes have been made:
- Fixed Edit / Hex Edit to make sure MQMD is carried to the new message.
- Fixed Hex Edit bug. Could not edit the very last byte.
- Fixed Preferences bug. The default value for Max Message Size was incorrect.
- Added separators in the MQMD Date and Time fields.
- Updated the Copy / Cut code to make it faster.
- Updated the Edit / Hex Edit code to make it faster.
- Updated the Duplicate code to make it faster.
- Updated docs (English only)
You can download MQ Visual Edit at:

Note: This is an on-going project, so please send comments and / or complaints to me.

Roger:
I was playing with the MQVE. I haven't had a chance to look at any other monitoring tools before and this is the first time I am using a GUI (other than MQ Explorer).
Accidentally I found this error:
I started the MQVE.
FILE -> OPEN QUEUE -> QMGR ACCESS PROFILE -> ADD -> (Gave some goofy name to the profile)
Then I had to specify the MQGR and other details.
If it was local then all I have to do is specify the QMGR name.
But if I specify a channel name, localhost and port and try to TEST it, it fails. Fine. Close the "New QMGR Access Profile" window and try to add a new one.
Next thing I do is give only the QMGR name but it doesn't work.
I had to close MQVE and start it again and give just the QMGR to add the profile.
Is it something done deliberately or is it an error?

Hi,
Actually, I have come across this error too. I have tried to debug it but something in the mq.jar stays loaded when an error occurs on a connection attempt. (I don't think it is the JVM.)
This problem only happens when an error occurs on a connection to a remote queue mananger and then you try to connect to another queue manager (local or remote).
Therefore, currently the only way to unload the mq.jar is to end MQVE.
I just got WMQ v5.3 so I will be trying out the (hopefully) newer mq.jar files.

A few more
1.
a) I stop the QMGR (The profile etc is already done and saved. )
b) FILE -> OPEN Queue -> OPEN (on some queue already being shown) : Fails with 2059. Expected result
c) I click on the OK button on the error message.
d) LIST Queues box -> I can't select LOCAL or ALIAS or REMOTE ..... is it supposed to work this way. Then logically ALL also shouldn't work. What do you think.
2.
The test is performed with two QMGRS. One running and stopped.
Basically I repeated test 1 (with the stopped QMGR). But this type after 1 d which was fine
I tried to select a different profile(the profile with running QMGR) and tried to select LOCAL or ALIAS etc. It doesn't work. I can't select them.
3.
a) Step 1 a)
b) FILE -> OPEN Queue -> LIST. Fails with 2059. Expected.
c) I click on the OK button on the error message.
d) It shows the screen "List of the Queues on FMCQM" which is blank. Shouldn't it go back to "OPEN QUEUE" screen instead. (Like what happened after 1 b )

Ok let me look into your test scenarios. Note: I have noticed #3.
On a brighter note, I spent tonight trying to figure your first problem (it was just annoying me). Basically, when I drop my own MQ class that interacts with the mq.class of mq.jar, the mq.class stays resident in the JVM. The manual actually has one line about clearing a particular variable. I updated the code and it appears it work.
So, I have posted the updated beta v0.3.8.2 of MQ Visual Edit to my site. So, give it a try.

What should I do to install the newer version. I haven't seen any migration steps.
Should I uninstall the older version and install the new one or can I just install the new one without any problems.
If I just overlay on the older version will all my profiles be saved?
(I uninstalled .3.7 and installed .3.8 thouh I haven't done anything with .3.7).

Hi,
Profile files are not installed or deleted by the setup program. Therefore, you can install MQ Visual Edit any way you like. Personally, I do the uninstall then install the new version.
