msg_receive
Receive a message from a message queue
(PHP 4 >= 4.3.0, PHP 5)
bool msg_receive ( resource queue, int desiredmsgtype, int &msgtype, int maxsize, mixed &message [, bool unserialize [, int flags [, int &errorcode]]] )
msg_receive() will receive the first message from the specified queue of the type specified by desiredmsgtype.
Parameters
- queue
- desiredmsgtype
If desiredmsgtype is 0, the message from the front of the queue is returned. If desiredmsgtype is greater than 0, then the first message of that type is returned. If desiredmsgtype is less than 0, the first message on the queue with the lowest type less than or equal to the absolute value of desiredmsgtype will be read. If no messages match the criteria, your script will wait until a suitable message arrives on the queue. You can prevent the script from blocking by specifying
MSG_IPC_NOWAITin the flags parameter.- msgtype
The type of the message that was received will be stored in this parameter.
- maxsize
The maximum size of message to be accepted is specified by the maxsize; if the message in the queue is larger than this size the function will fail (unless you set flags as described below).
- message
The received message will be stored in message, unless there were errors receiving the message.
- unserialize
unserialize defaults to
TRUE; if it is set toTRUE, the message is treated as though it was serialized using the same mechanism as the session module. The message will be unserialized and then returned to your script. This allows you to easily receive arrays or complex object structures from other PHP scripts, or if you are using the WDDX serializer, from any WDDX compatible source.If unserialize is
FALSE, the message will be returned as a binary-safe string.- flags
The optional flags allows you to pass flags to the low-level msgrcv system call. It defaults to 0, but you may specify one or more of the following values (by adding or ORing them together).
Table 278. Flag values for msg_receive
MSG_IPC_NOWAITIf there are no messages of the desiredmsgtype, return immediately and do not wait. The function will fail and return an integer value corresponding to MSG_ENOMSG.MSG_EXCEPTUsing this flag in combination with a desiredmsgtype greater than 0 will cause the function to receive the first message that is not equal to desiredmsgtype. MSG_NOERRORIf the message is longer than maxsize, setting this flag will truncate the message to maxsize and will not signal an error.
- errorcode
If the function fails, the optional errorcode will be set to the value of the system errno variable.
