MQMD - MQLONG - need urgent help

Hi,

I have a question regarding the MQ data type MQLONG.
Is this possible?If not how can this be done?

Code:

---

struct myStruct{
char parm[8];
};

memcpy(myStruct.parm, msgDescriptor.Expiry, sizeof(myStruct.parm));

---

Thanks in advance.

P.S. It is just the related Sektion of my Code.

I think I need this step,but I am not sure.

Code:

---

char myMQparm[8];
itoa (msgDescriptor.Expory, myMQparm,10);
memcpy(myStruct.parm, myMQparm, sizeof(myStruct.parm));

Too much guessing on your part.

Convert COBOL to C

Not that much, I am a newbie in Cobol.
Or let's say,I never implemented in Cobol, now I am trying to get some basics which I need for my C Implementation.

It seems your C is pretty weak as well.

Interoperability between different languages usually requires that you are pretty competent at one of them.
If you're fumbling on this kind of question, it's not good.

Plus, it's hard to keep track of the half dozen threads you've suddenly spawned with your scattergun approach.

I am very sorry, I will not create threads anymore.
I have to do something and I try my best.
Could you please tell whether my approach with itoa is correct?And my last question: What can be done if my source data type is MQCHAR8 and my dest data type char[4]?
Thank you and sorry again.I will post no more.
