The bigEndian attribute specifies whether to use the bigEndian format for integers.

The codePage attribute specifies the character code page used by the remote system. The default code page is the currently active code page for the local system.

The queueManagerName attribute represents the name of the queue manager.

The replyQueue attribute represents the queue that will be used for either input or output depending on how the server attribute is set. If the server attribute is set to true then the queue is used for output (server), otherwise it is used for input (client).

The requestQueue attribute represents the queue that will be used for either input or output depending on how the server attribute is set. If the server attribute is set to true then the queue is used for input (server), otherwise it is used for output (client).

The server attribute determines if the application is used as a server or a client. If the server attribute is true the application acts as a server. If it is set to false it acts as a client. The value of this boolean also determines how the reply and request queues will be used.

The self attribute represents the part itself, and you cannot change the basic definition of a part. In general, the self attribute is a read-only attribute, and is used for passing a value or values to another part. It is not used for receiving any values.

For example, you can connect the self attribute of an Ordered Collection part to the items attribute of a List part. The Ordered Collection part does not change to a different type of part because of the connection. Instead, the Ordered Collection part populates the List part with the items that it contains.

You can use the self attribute in an attribute-to-attribute connection, as a parameter in an event-to-action connection, or wherever an attribute can be used.

The syncPoint attribute specifies whether to use sync point processing, for example commit and rollback.

The userID attribute is the user ID required to access the remote system.
