The following changes and enhancements apply to all releases of release 2 (10.2.0) gateway products.
The following sections describe the changes and enhancements included in this release.
This release of Oracle Database Gateway for WebSphere MQ requires the latest released patch set for Oracle Database 10g release 2 (10.2.0), or for the Oracle database release that you are using.
The PL/SQL RAW data type limitation is 32 KB (32767) bytes. For large loads, you must use the TABLE OF RAWS data type. For more information about support for large data buffers, refer to Appendix A.
The following table provides information about Oracle Database Gateway for WebSphere MQ (OG4MQ) data types.

Refer to Appendix A for the details of APIs.
The following scripts are new in this release:
pgm.sql
pgmobj.sql
pgmdeploy.sql
pgmundeploy.sql
The gateway procedures in the PGM package are defined in pgm.sql and PGM_MQ* data type definitions used by the procedures are defined in pgmobj.sql. For complete information about PGM package, OG4MQ gateway procedures and data type definitions, refer to Appendix A.
OG4MQ 11g supports large payloads or messages longer than 32767 bytes. For more information, refer to the putlongsample.sql and getlongsample.sql sample programs installed with the OG4MQ.
A connection to the gateway is established through a database link. From OG4MQ 10g release 2 and later, this database link is no longer associated with each OG4MQ gateway procedural call (for example, PGM.MQPUT@dblink). From 10g release 2 and later, it needs to be defined only once in the MQOD data type used by MQOPEN, and this database link is registered in the object handle returned by the MQOPEN call. Refer to the sample programs installed with the gateway for details. By default, a public database link, dg4mqdepdblink, is created with your default SID when OG4MQ deployment scripts are executed.
The problems documented in this section are specific to the Oracle Database Gateway for WebSphere MQ and are known to exist in this release of the product. These problems will be fixed in a future gateway release. If you have any questions or concerns about these problems, contact Oracle Support Services.
A current list of problems is available online. Contact your local Oracle office for information about accessing this online information.
The following restriction is known to exist for this release.
Customizing LOG_DESTINATION
There is a known issue when customizing the gateway initialization file for gateway tracing for Microsoft Windows platform. When customizing the path name of LOG_DESTINATION, the delimiter must be double backslashes. For example:
LOG_DESTINATION=C:\\oracle\\product\\11.1.0\\dg4mqs\\dg4mq\\log\\dg4mqs.log
Note:
IfLOG_DESTINATION is not defined for MS windows platform, a default name is used and the log is created in ORACLE_HOME\dg4mq\trace directoryCustomizing deployment script pgmobj.sql
There is a known issue when customizing the gateway deployment script pgmobj.sql for MS windows platform. When defining the path name of libdg4mq, the delimiter must be backslashes. For example create or replace library libdg4mq as:
CREATE OR REPLACE LIBRARY libdg4mq as 'C:\oracle\product\11.1.0\dg4mqs\bin\oradg4mqs.dll' transactional
or
CREATE OR REPLACE LIBRARY libdg4mq as '$ORACLE_HOME\bin\oradg4mqs.dll' transactional
