[rabbitmq-discuss] Decoding header fields

Mon Jul 30 13:44:45 BST 2012

I have now looked at the SendMap example and replicated its function in my
own program, but I still receive header fields as Byte[].

How do I make RabbitMQ decode my header fields to the correct type?

Ok, obviously if you need to represent more than two values then use a
larger type.

See RabbitMQ.Client.Examples.SendMap for an example that can send multiple
types of values in a header.
