I have the following lines of code.
| Code: |
channel_type = channel_info[pymqi.CMQCFC.MQIACH_CHANNEL_TYPE]
print('Channel type = ', type(channel_type)) |
How do I do a lookup to get the string value for the returned channel type INT? |

In C/C++, the header file cmqstrc.h contains functions for converting a multitude of MQ constants to their string names. MQCHT_STR returns the channel type string. I don't know if this is available for Phython. You may need to copy the code into your type() function.

You should do something like this. You might need some extra import statements at the top of your program for this to work, but this was good for me.
| Code: |
d = _MQConst2String(CMQXC, 'MQCHT_')
if channel_type in d:
print('Channel type = ', d[channel_type])
else:
print('Channel type = ', channel_type) |

I found a sample using _MQConst2String, that is what I was looking for. I am assuming it is buried in pymqe. My import for that does not work. Trying to figure it out. Linux environment.
| Code: |
try:
from . import pymqe # type: ignore
except ImportError:
import pymqe # type: ignore # Backward compatibility |
UPDATE:
Interesting I see the code in GITHUB. pymqi/code/pymqi/__init__.py. Don't know why I am not getting to it. I am at PYTHON3 v3.8
| Code: |
[mqm@fibbing1 scripts]$ python3 --version
Python 3.6.8 |

Thank you Morag, again!! That line was what I was looking for. Little modification and it worked!!!
d - pymqi._MQConst2String(CMQXC, 'MQCHT_')
Needed a little direction!!! |

I have an import statement at top of my file thus:-
| Code: |
| from pymqi import _MQConst2String |
which is what makes my line work.
Without that import statement you need to fully qualify the line as you have. And P.S. you need an equal sign!
| Code: |
| d = pymqi._MQConst2String(CMQXC, 'MQCHT_') |
Cheers,
Morag

It's these little things that make one's day sunny.
I looked and looked and did not see examples and the the 'pymqi' full qualification hit me. I actually thought at one time I did try an IMPORT like that. Must have had it slightly different. I will adjust the code. Thanks from the peanut gallery!!
I am writing a MQ Healthcheck/Hardening script at someone's request. It is actually an interesting script. |
