AW: Reading Contents of DataQ

That is correct. The QMHRDQM API reads the messages of a given data queue without removing them:

From the manual (https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/i/7.4?topic=ssw_ibm_i_74/apis/qmhrdqm.htm):
The QMHRDQM API is similar in function to the QRCVDTAQ API. However, the QRCVDTAQ API can remove the received message from the data queue; QMHRDQM API does not remove received messages.

Yes, non destructive read of the queue. Not near a system but I think it’s a part on the retrieve data queue entry API.

Hi All,

I use DataQ's for mult projects and have pgms that do a dump of the DataQ and display the contents.

Is there a new/better way? Is there a SQL function to display the contents without actually removing the entry?

Thanks!!
