MessageQueue
Provides access to a queue on a Message Queuing server.
The Message Queuing technology allows applications running at different times to communicate across heterogeneous networks and systems that might be temporarily offline. Applications send, receive, or peek (read without removing) messages from queues. Message Queuing is an optional component of Windows 2000 and Windows NT, and must be installed separately.
The MessageQueue class is a wrapper around Message Queuing. There are multiple versions of Message Queuing, and using the MessageQueue class can result in slightly different behavior, depending on the operating system you are using.
The MessageQueue class provides a reference to a Message Queuing queue. You can specify a path in the MessageQueue constructor to connect to an existing resource, or you can create a new queue on the server. Before you can call Send(Object), Peek, or Receive, you must associate the new instance of the MessageQueue class with an existing queue. At that point, you can manipulate the queue properties such as Category and Label.
