POSIX Message Queues

carcassonne has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Dear monks,

I'm considering using Perl to build a test framework for some C apps/processes that uses POSIX message queues. You know, the mq_open(), mq_send(), mq_close() calls.

I might be grandly mistaking here but I have the impression that Perl's message queue support is of the SysV type. Is there any POSIX message queue support that would enable interfacing to the message queues created by the C processes ?

Thanks.

    Perl is indeed capable of supporting POSIX message queues as well. POSIX::RT::MQ appears to be what you are looking for.
