Waiting for messages

 

A program that is serving a queue can await messages by:

• Making periodic calls on the queue to see whether a message has arrived (polling).

• Waiting until either a message arrives, or a specified time interval expires (see Waiting for messages).

• Set a signal so that the program is informed when a message arrives (WebSphere MQ for z/OS only). For information about this, see Signaling.
