37 * @class ACE_Message_Queue_Base
39 * @brief Base class for ACE_Message_Queue, which is the central
40 * queueing facility for messages in the ACE framework.
42 * For all the ACE_Time_Value pointer parameters the caller will
43 * block until action is possible if @a timeout == 0. Otherwise, it
44 * will wait until the absolute time specified in *@a timeout
47 * A queue is always in one of three states:
52 class ACE_Export ACE_Message_Queue_Base
57 // Default high and low watermarks.
59 /// Default high watermark (16 K).
60 DEFAULT_HWM
= 16 * 1024,
61 /// Default low watermark (same as high water mark).
62 DEFAULT_LWM
= 16 * 1024,
64 // Queue states. Before PULSED state was added, the activate()
65 // and deactivate() methods returned WAS_INACTIVE or WAS_ACTIVE
66 // to indicate the previous condition. Now those methods
67 // return the state the queue was previously in. WAS_ACTIVE
68 // and WAS_INACTIVE are defined to match previous semantics for
69 // applications that don't use the PULSED state.
71 /// @deprecated Use ACTIVATED instead.
73 /// Message queue is active and processing normally
76 /// @deprecated Use DEACTIVATED instead.
78 /// Queue is deactivated; no enqueue or dequeue operations allowed.
81 /// Message queue was pulsed; enqueue and dequeue may proceed normally.

97 * Retrieve the first ACE_Message_Block without removing it. Note
98 * that @a timeout uses <{absolute}> time rather than <{relative}>
99 * time. If the @a timeout elapses without receiving a message -1 is
100 * returned and @c errno is set to @c EWOULDBLOCK. If the queue is
101 * deactivated -1 is returned and @c errno is set to <ESHUTDOWN>.
