NAME
IPC::Msg - SysV Msg IPC object class
SYNOPSIS
use IPC::SysV qw(IPC_PRIVATE S_IRUSR S_IWUSR);
use IPC::Msg;
$msg = IPC::Msg->new(IPC_PRIVATE, S_IRUSR | S_IWUSR);
$msg->snd($msgtype, $msgdata);
$msg->rcv($buf, 256);
$ds = $msg->stat;
$msg->remove;
DESCRIPTION
A class providing an object based interface to SysV IPC message queues.
METHODS
new ( KEY , FLAGS )
Creates a new message queue associated with "KEY". A new queue is created if
· "KEY" is equal to "IPC_PRIVATE"
· "KEY" does not already have a message queue associated with it, and "FLAGS &
IPC_CREAT" is true.
On creation of a new message queue "FLAGS" is used to set the permissions. Be careful
not to set any flags that the Sys V IPC implementation does not allow: in some systems
setting execute bits makes the operations fail.
id Returns the system message queue identifier.
rcv ( BUF, LEN [, TYPE [, FLAGS ]] )
Read a message from the queue. Returns the type of the message read. See msgrcv. The
BUF becomes tainted.
remove
Remove and destroy the message queue from the system.
set ( STAT )
set ( NAME => VALUE [, NAME => VALUE ...] )
"set" will set the following values of the "stat" structure associated with the
message queue.
uid
gid
mode (oly the permission bits)
qbytes
"set" accepts either a stat object, as returned by the "stat" method, or a list of
name-value pairs.
snd ( TYPE, MSG [, FLAGS ] )
Place a message on the queue with the data from "MSG" and with type "TYPE". See
msgsnd.
stat
Returns an object of type "IPC::Msg::stat" which is a sub-class of "Class::Struct". It
provides the following fields. For a description of these fields see you system
documentation.
uid
gid
cuid
cgid
mode
qnum
qbytes
lspid
lrpid
stime
rtime
ctime
