HOWTO: How to Write an MSMQ Trigger Application (173325)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Message Queue Server (MSMQ) 1.0
This article was previously published under Q173325 SUMMARY
Microsoft Message Queue Server (MSMQ) does not come with "trigger"
functionality for queues. A "trigger" is a software component that monitors
a queue for a certain condition and performs some action when that
condition is met. Currently, trigger functionality must be implemented in
the application. The MSMQ software development kit (SDK) provides
documentation on how to use notification events to provide asynchronous
handling of messages, which is one kind of trigger functionality. However,
you can also use Performance Monitor counters to monitor for triggering
conditions. This article points you to a sample application that shows you
how to write a trigger using a Performance Monitor counter.
