<h2>Using User Queue APIs</h2>
<p>You can use user queues to:</p>
<ul>
<li>Communicate between two processes asynchronously.</li>
<li>Store data in arrival sequence for later use.</li>
<li>Contain keyed messages.</li>
<li>Create a batch machine. (For an example, see
<a href="../apiref/apiexcremac.htm">Creating a Batch Machine</a> in
API Examples.)</li>
<li>Permit better performance than the data queue interface.</li>
</ul>
<p>You can save and restore a user queue; however, you can save or restore its
definition only. You cannot save or restore the messages in it. You cannot
restore a user queue if a user queue with the same name already exists in the
library. You must provide programs to use this object type to enqueue and
dequeue messages.</p>
<p> In addition to the user queue APIs, you can work with user queues through
the following:</p>
<ul>
<li>ILE C programming language</li>
<li>Delete User Queue (DLTUSRQ) command</li>
<li>Machine interface (MI) instructions</li>
</ul>
<p>For details about MI instructions, refer to the
<a href="../rzatk/mitoc.htm">iSeries
Machine Interface Instructions</a>, which provides detailed descriptions of the
iSeries<SUP>(TM)</SUP> machine interface instruction fields and the formats of those fields.
For details about the DLTUSRQ command, see the
<a href="../rbam6/rbam6clmain.htm">Control Language</a> topic.</p>
