MQAUSX Client-side Java Bug

The following was recently reported:

For WebSphere Message Broker Toolkit, when the user inputs an incorrect password, the exit rejects the connection (as expected). If you try and connect again, you do not get a pop up prompting you for a new password attempt and the exit immediately ends the connection attempt.

If a user has connections to several Brokers open, with multiple frames open, they then have to close down and reopen everything.

It appears that WMQ Broker is reusing a Java security exit object after a failure. Normally, code simply re-instantiates the object. In this case, a flag was set incorrectly for reuse (after a failure). It has been fixed.

If anyone is having this particular issue with WMB Toolkit or any other WMQ product then send an email to support@capitalware.com and we will send you the latest release of MQAUSXJ.jar file.
