We have existing application in JAVA which uses com.ibm.mq.jms.MQQueue to send MQ messages to IBM Mainframe CICS application.

How to get the Triggertype in Java?

The MQSeries MQ Trigger type is set to "NONE" for Batch processing during night for 30 mins. We want to check the triggertype in Java Application and display appropriate error message to user.

True. The JMS specification does not support the method because it is an IBM MQ only method. You need to use the MQ classes for Java (and not JMS).
