| Data type: | Variant (array of bytes) |
| Run-time access: | Read/write |
Property SenderId As Variant
Property Value
An array of bytes generated by Message Queuing.
Remarks
SenderId is set by MSMQ, and is used primarily by the destination queue manager when authenticating a message. The destination queue manager uses the sender identifier in this property to verify who sent the message and to verify that the access rights for placing messages in the destination queue are allowed for the sender.
By default, Message Queuing sets this property when a message is sent. However, Message Queuing will not attach the sender identifier to the message if the sending application has set MSMQMessage.SenderIdType to MQMSG_SENDERID_TYPE_NONE, indicating that the sending application does not want Message Queuing to validate who sent the message.
The receiving application can use SenderId to retrieve information about who sent the message. However, the information in SenderId is only trustworthy if the message was authenticated.
Connector applications must provide the sender identification when sending message. In this case, SenderId and MSMQMessage.ConnectorTypeGuid must be set. SenderId is ignored if MSMQMessage.ConnectorTypeGuid is not also set when the message is sent.
