application name as properties improvment

[ruzsicsg]

That is not a bug, but it's diffiult to identity an application, who is listening on queue, when you have more then 10... becose all of them have the name "jar". If you makes these changes, you can set the name, for the application in the config file. :-)

• ibmmq-jms-spring version(s) that are affected by this issue. 2.0.0 and above
• java 8
• A small code sample that demonstrates the issue.

In MQConfigurationProperties -->

/**
     * Application Name
     */
    private String applicationName = "jar";

      public String getApplicationName() {
        return applicationName;
    }

    public void setApplicationName(String applicationName) {
        this.applicationName = applicationName;
    }

<--

In MQConnectionFactoryFactory

<--

if(properties.getApplicationName()!=null){
        cf.setAppName(properties.getApplicationName());
      }

MQ should - by default - use the name of the main class of the application as the basis of the application name when connecting as a Java client. But it's reasonable to make it a configurable property, especially as MQ V9.1.2 starts to make real use of the application name, albeit for non-Java programs in that release.

I'll add something like this code change for the next update to the boot file.
