I have installed pymqi on Windows 10 using pip:-
pip install pymqi
I now understand that this locks in the pymqi interface to use mqic libraries and not mqm. According to this thread from 2018, the default was going to be changed to use mqm libraries, but it would appear that has not yet been done.
That same thread suggests that you can change your already installed pymqi to use bindings mode yourself, post install, by running the following command:-
python setup.py build server
Trouble is, I have no idea where it has put setup.py so that I can do this. There doesn't seem to be such a file in my C:\Python38\Lib\site-packages\pymqi* directories.
If I uninstall it again and re-run the pip install command, can I tell it to use bindings mode then?
I asked my question in a more generic way elsewhere, and got an answer that resulted in me being able to answer this question! Yay!
Use the command
pip install pymqi --install-option server
to install the pymqi package tied to using mqm.lib
