A class providing an object based interface to SysV \s-1IPC\s0 message queues.
.SH "METHODS"
.IX Header "METHODS"
.IP "new ( \s-1KEY\s0 , \s-1FLAGS\s0 )" 4
.IX Item "new ( KEY , FLAGS )"
Creates a new message queue associated with \f(CW\*(C`KEY\*(C'\fR. A new queue is
created if
.RS 4
.IP "*" 4
\&\f(CW\*(C`KEY\*(C'\fR is equal to \f(CW\*(C`IPC_PRIVATE\*(C'\fR
.IP "*" 4
\&\f(CW\*(C`KEY\*(C'\fR does not already  have  a  message queue
associated with it, and \f(CW\*(C`\f(CI\s-1FLAGS\s0\f(CW & IPC_CREAT\*(C'\fR is true.
.RE
.RS 4
.Sp
On creation of a new message queue \f(CW\*(C`FLAGS\*(C'\fR is used to set the
permissions.
.RE
.IP "id" 4
.IX Item "id"
Returns the system message queue identifier.
.IP "rcv ( \s-1BUF\s0, \s-1LEN\s0 [, \s-1TYPE\s0 [, \s-1FLAGS\s0 ]] )" 4
.IX Item "rcv ( BUF, LEN [, TYPE [, FLAGS ]] )"
Read a message from the queue. Returns the type of the message read.
See msgrcv.  The  \s-1BUF\s0 becomes tainted.
.IP "remove" 4
.IX Item "remove"
Remove and destroy the message queue from the system.
.IP "set ( \s-1STAT\s0 )" 4
.IX Item "set ( STAT )"
.PD 0
.IP "set ( \s-1NAME\s0 => \s-1VALUE\s0 [, \s-1NAME\s0 => \s-1VALUE\s0 ...] )" 4
.IX Item "set ( NAME => VALUE [, NAME => VALUE ...] )"
.PD
\&\f(CW\*(C`set\*(C'\fR will set the following values of the \f(CW\*(C`stat\*(C'\fR structure associated
with the message queue.
.Sp
.Vb 4
\&    uid
\&    gid
\&    mode (oly the permission bits)
\&    qbytes
.Ve
.Sp
\&\f(CW\*(C`set\*(C'\fR accepts either a stat object, as returned by the \f(CW\*(C`stat\*(C'\fR method,
or a list of \fIname\fR\-\fIvalue\fR pairs.
.IP "snd ( \s-1TYPE\s0, \s-1MSG\s0 [, \s-1FLAGS\s0 ] )" 4
.IX Item "snd ( TYPE, MSG [, FLAGS ] )"
Place a message on the queue with the data from \f(CW\*(C`MSG\*(C'\fR and with type \f(CW\*(C`TYPE\*(C'\fR.
See msgsnd.
.IP "stat" 4
.IX Item "stat"
Returns an object of type \f(CW\*(C`IPC::Msg::stat\*(C'\fR which is a sub-class of
\&\f(CW\*(C`Class::Struct\*(C'\fR. It provides the following fields. For a description
of these fields see you system documentation.
