[MQ 9.3.4 Oct 2023]

TokenPtr (MQPTR) for MQCSP

The address of the authentication token that is used for authentication with the queue manager.

This is an input field. The initial value of this field is the null pointer in those programming languages that support pointers, and an all-null byte string otherwise. This field is ignored if Version is less than MQCSP_VERSION_3.

This field is relevant for IBM® MQ MQI clients connecting to IBM MQ queue managers that run on AIX® or Linux® systems.

You can use either TokenOffset or TokenPtr to specify the authentication token, but not both.
