Hi,
I am using MQSeries -java. I have a basic question. Is the correlation_id or message_id is being generated by the MQServer or do we have to program ? (like UIDGeneratio ?) After reading couple of messages I am getting this doubt. Please explain. Also, if we are going to generate the COrrelation_Id or Message_ID manually, how many bytes we should generate ?
Thanks.

Thanks for the reply. If it is generated by the system, how can I read the correlation_id before putting the message ?
Thanks.

You can't. It is only available to you after the PUT.

Hi,
Let me correct crony's statement. 
If you specify a MessageId, then MQ will use what you specify. Except for JMS where the MessageID will ALWAYS be genreated by MQSeries, overwritting what you used.
If you do not specify a MessageID, then MQSeries will generate one for you.
In both the above cases, you can read the value of the MessageID back after the PUT.
MQSeries NEVER generates a CorrelationID for you. It ALWAYS honors what you have used, even NULL.
Cheers,

Thanks for the replies.
If MQSeries does not create correlation id then
how dows the MQC.MQPMO_NEW_CORREL_ID option works with
putMessageOptions class ? I guess it creates the correlation_id.
We are using 5.2 version of MQSeries in Java.

Eddie,
I'm afraid your comment on CorrelId is not quite right. All others hit the nail on the head, though! 
Form the Application Programming Reference:
| Quote: |
For the MQPUT and MQPUT1 calls, the application can specify any value.
The queue manager transmits this value with the message and delivers it
to the application that issues the get request for the message.
If the application specifies MQPMO_NEW_CORREL_ID, the queue
manager generates a unique correlation identifier which is sent with the
message, and also returned to the sending application on output from the
MQPUT or MQPUT1 call.

Hangs head in shame. 
That's an option (together with MQPMO_NEW_CORREL_ID) that I hadn't spotted before. Looks like I'll have to change my standard answers about MesageId and CorrelID. (Don't ever remember seeing MQPMO_NEW_MSG_ID before either. Hmmmmm, when did they get introduced).
Thanks for pointing it out to me Stefan.
Cheers,
