MessageQueue.Peek Method

  • Reference

Definition

Namespace:
System.Messaging
Assembly:
System.Messaging.dll

Returns a copy of the first message in the queue without removing the message from the queue.

Overloads

Peek()

Returns without removing (peeks) the first message in the queue referenced by this MessageQueue. The Peek() method is synchronous, so it blocks the current thread until a message becomes available.
Peek(TimeSpan)

Returns without removing (peeks) the first message in the queue referenced by this MessageQueue. The Peek() method is synchronous, so it blocks the current thread until a message becomes available or the specified time-out occurs.
Peek(TimeSpan, Cursor, PeekAction)

Returns without removing (peeks) the current or next message in the queue, using the specified cursor. The Peek() method is synchronous, so it blocks the current thread until a message becomes available or the specified time-out occurs.

Peek()

Returns without removing (peeks) the first message in the queue referenced by this MessageQueue. The Peek() method is synchronous, so it blocks the current thread until a message becomes available.

public:
 System::Messaging::Message ^ Peek();
public System.Messaging.Message Peek ();
member this.Peek : unit -> System.Messaging.Message
Public Function Peek () As Message

Returns

Message

The Message that represents the first message in the queue.

Exceptions

MessageQueueException

An error occurred when accessing a Message Queuing method.

Examples

The following examples use the Peek method on a queue.

In the first example, the application waits until a message becomes available in the queue. Note that the first example does not access the message that arrives; it merely pauses processing until a message arrives. If a message already exists in the queue, it will return immediately.

In the second example, a message that contains an application-defined Order class is sent to the queue, and then peeked from the queue.

Remarks

Use this overload to peek a queue, or to wait until a message exists in the queue.

The Peek method reads, but does not remove, the first message from the queue. Therefore, repeated calls to Peek return the same message, unless a higher priority message arrives in the queue. The Receive method, on the other hand, both reads and removes the first message from the queue. Repeated calls to Receive, therefore, return different messages.

Message Queuing orders messages in the queue according to priority and arrival time. A newer message is placed before an older one only if it is of a higher priority.

Use Peek when it is acceptable for the current thread to be blocked while it waits for a message to arrive in the queue. Because this overload does not specify a time-out, the application might wait indefinitely. If you need the application processing to continue without waiting, use the asynchronous BeginPeek method. Alternatively, you can specify a time-out for a message to arrive in the queue by using the overload of Peek that specifies a time-out.

The following table shows whether this method is available in various Workgroup modes.

Workgroup mode Available
Local computer Yes
Local computer and direct format name Yes
Remote computer No
Remote computer and direct format name Yes

Applies to

Peek(TimeSpan)

Returns without removing (peeks) the first message in the queue referenced by this MessageQueue. The Peek() method is synchronous, so it blocks the current thread until a message becomes available or the specified time-out occurs.

public:
 System::Messaging::Message ^ Peek(TimeSpan timeout);
public System.Messaging.Message Peek (TimeSpan timeout);
member this.Peek : TimeSpan -> System.Messaging.Message
Public Function Peek (timeout As TimeSpan) As Message

Parameters

timeout
TimeSpan

A TimeSpan that indicates the maximum time to wait for the queue to contain a message.

Returns

Message

The Message that represents the first message in the queue.

Exceptions

ArgumentException

The value specified for the timeout parameter is not valid, possibly timeout is less than Zero or greater than InfiniteTimeout.

MessageQueueException

An error occurred when accessing a Message Queuing method.

The following code example uses the Peek method with a time-out of zero to check whether the queue is empty.

End Class

Remarks

Use this overload to peek a queue, or to wait a specified period of time until a message exists in the queue. The method returns immediately if a message already exists in the queue.

The Peek method reads, but does not remove, the first message from the queue. Therefore, repeated calls to Peek return the same message, unless a higher priority message arrives in the queue. The Receive method, on the other hand, both reads and removes the first message from the queue. Repeated calls to Receive, therefore, return different messages.

Message Queuing orders messages in the queue according to priority and arrival time. A newer message is placed before an older one only if it is of a higher priority.

Use Peek when it is acceptable for the current thread to be blocked while it waits for a message to arrive in the queue. The thread will be blocked up to the specified period of time, or indefinitely if you indicated InfiniteTimeout. If you need the application processing to continue without waiting, use the asynchronous BeginPeek method.

Peek(TimeSpan, Cursor, PeekAction)

Returns without removing (peeks) the current or next message in the queue, using the specified cursor. The Peek() method is synchronous, so it blocks the current thread until a message becomes available or the specified time-out occurs.

public:
 System::Messaging::Message ^ Peek(TimeSpan timeout, System::Messaging::Cursor ^ cursor, System::Messaging::PeekAction action);
public System.Messaging.Message Peek (TimeSpan timeout, System.Messaging.Cursor cursor, System.Messaging.PeekAction action);
member this.Peek : TimeSpan * System.Messaging.Cursor * System.Messaging.PeekAction -> System.Messaging.Message
Public Function Peek (timeout As TimeSpan, cursor As Cursor, action As PeekAction) As Message

Parameters

timeout
TimeSpan

A TimeSpan that indicates the maximum time to wait for the queue to contain a message.

cursor
Cursor

A Cursor that maintains a specific position in the message queue.

action
PeekAction

One of the PeekAction values. Indicates whether to peek at the current message in the queue, or the next message.

Returns

Message

A Message that represents a message in the queue.

Exceptions

ArgumentOutOfRangeException

A value other than PeekAction.Current or PeekAction.Next was specified for the action parameter.

ArgumentNullException

The cursor parameter is null.

ArgumentException

The value specified for the timeout parameter is not valid. Possibly timeout is less than Zero or greater than InfiniteTimeout.

MessageQueueException

An error occurred when accessing a Message Queuing method.
