(Write-only.) The PROPID_M_SECURITY_CONTEXT property specifies a handle to a security context structure that contains a user certificate, the corresponding private key, the user's SID, and other information needed to attach the certificate to a message.

Property ID

PROPID_M_SECURITY_CONTEXT

Type Indicator

VT_UI4

MQPROPVARIANT Field

ulVal

Property Value

Handle to a security context buffer returned by MQGetSecurityContextEx.

Remarks

The sending application should use PROPID_M_SECURITY_CONTEXT when using the same certificate to send a large number of authenticated messages. The Message Queuing runtime uses the handle to the security context structure specified by PROPID_M_SECURITY_CONTEXT to attach the certificate to the messages for you.

All the information in a security context structure is stored locally on the source computer and has no meaning to the receiving application.

To create a security context structure, call MQGetSecurityContextEx. The certificate included can be an internal or external certificate.

When using a security context structure to attach a certificate, do not set PROPID_M_SENDER_CERT. The Message Queuing runtime will attach the certificate for you. If the Message Queuing runtime finds a different certificate in PROPID_M_SENDER_CERT, it will ignore any information in PROPID_M_SECURITY_CONTEXT.

When the sending application is impersonating a user, it must use the security context of the impersonated user.

The PROPID_M_SECURITY_CONTEXT property is write-only. If the receiving application attempts to retrieve the PROPID_M_SECURITY_CONTEXT property, MQReceiveMessage or MQReceiveMessageByLookupId returns the warning MQ_INFORMATION_PROPERTY, the individual result for the PROPID_M_SECURITY_CONTEXT property is MQ_INFORMATION_PROPERTY_IGNORED, and the other properties are received correctly.

When the current security context structure is no longer needed, call MQFreeSecurityContext to clear the memory allocated for this structure.
