Accessing message properties

Message properties can add more envelope information about a message. The number of header fields is fixed, but properties are flexible. An application can add any number of property name-and-value pairs. The following table lists the methods to access message properties.

The requesting application clears the properties of a message (keeps header and body values unchanged) using clearProperties procedure.
