Description
The MQCURMSGS() function returns the current number of unread messages in the open queue specified by <expN>. The <expN> is the pointer to a queue opened with MQCREATE() or MQOPEN().
The MQCLOSE() function is used to close a queue which has been opened with MQOPEN() or MQCREATE().
For more examples of handling message queues, please see the examples/mqueue programs in the software distribution.
Example
// Open up the queue for reading mqdes=mqopen("/myqueue") if (mqdes < 0) messagebox(strerror()+",errno="+alltrim(str(error()))) return endif // do while there are messages do while (mqcurmsgs(mqdes) > 0) // Get each message mstr=mqreceive(mqdes) if (empty(mstr)) messagebox(strerror()+",errno="+alltrim(str(error()))) return endif messagebox(mstr) enddo mqclose(mqdes)
