Capturing msgdump output

[Bob Schmid]

I hope a simple dumb brainless question:

I want to capture the output of msgdump…..

currently writes to stdout and returns null string.

im inside runtime engine in outbound tps.

Trying to capture the field: msgRecordFormat

If this is a MetaData field (I suspect it is but have not confirmed) I think msgmetaget should get you the info (then you will need to treat it as a keyed list I think).

Jim,above field is what is displayed on the msgdump of the msg

it is not a meta field?

it appears as this field is what the engine uses to determine if someone dictated/overrode, on resend,  routing destination

Ive gone thru all metadata….

do you have any tricks on capturing msgdump output ?…returns null string..writes to stdout……gotta be a way!

[Bob Schmid]

so if I can override the destination threads on a resend…what happens if the destination thread’s ob tps proc changes the DESTCONN…?…well…right now..an infinite loop

1. ob tps gets orig message on thread a

2. ob tps proc changes DESTCONN to thread b disp SEND

3. engine hands message back to xlate thread which says…hey….orig destination was overriden by user…I think ill send it to the original dest thread , a, …..and hands it back to the tps proc which changes DESTCONN to b….SEND and hands it back to the xlate thread……

and around and around we go
