Hi everyone, I am in the process of creating a file transmit/receiver program using MQSeries.
The way it works is through creation of an XML message. Elements within the XML message contain things such as file name, size, and the file contents. The file contents are encoded, currently using Base64, for support of both binary and text data. This works great but there is a small rub to the problem. I would like to be able to view the contents of the file if it is text while still maintaining the ability to transmit binary data. Does anyone know of an encoding format that would make this possible? The viewing of the file contents does not need to be perfect, merely enough that a particular in-transit file could be identified. Thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated.
