Public Property Priority As MessagePriority

Property Value

MessagePriority

One of the MessagePriority values, which represent the priority levels of non-transactional messages. The default is Normal.

Attributes: MessagingDescriptionAttribute

Exceptions

InvalidOperationException

The message queue is filtered to ignore the Priority property.

Examples

The following code example sends two messages of different priorities to the queue, and retrieves them subsequently.

Remarks

The Priority property affects how Message Queuing handles the message both while it is en route and once it reaches its destination. Higher-priority messages are given preference during routing and inserted toward the front of the destination queue. Messages with the same priority are placed in the queue according to their arrival time.

You can set a meaningful priority only for non-transactional messages. Message Queuing automatically sets the priority for transactional messages to Lowest, which causes transactional message priority to be ignored.
