This new product is a programming language extension that simplifies the task of interfacing application programs with MQSeries. SemantiQ utilizes a familiar, easy to learn coding structure in a manner similar to coding command level CICS and the standard SQL interface and allows application programmers to specify almost everything needed for an MQSeries action in a single command. Benefits SemantiQ commands are much simpler and more intuitive than MQI calls. Keyword parameters and sophisticated default actions eliminate the need for programmers to populate and keep track of specific MQSeries data areas. Certain errors can be detected during precompilation rather than at runtime.
Program code is more readable, therefore easier to maintain.
