Connect to MQ via Go Lang For Metrics

[sushantsaini01]

Hello,

I am trying to setup this project in my local machine and everything seems to be set-up fine but when i run the mqitest.go then i am getting multiple error "undefined: MQQueueManager" "undefined:MQObject". The modCache downloaded correct version and i am able to see all these variables defined but somehow my local is not able to refer to these objects. Did anyone faced this issue and how it was resolved?

Thank you.

You have to have the MQ C client available as that's what the whole package is built on. Follow the instructions in the README files which also shows how you can build in a container environment, where the C client may be automatically downloaded for you.

For a basic introduction to Go programming with MQ, I suggest you look at: https://github.com/ibm-messaging/mq-dev-patterns/tree/master/Go/src

There are many ways of connecting a client to MQ, fully described in the product documentation.
