MessageQueue.EndPeek(IAsyncResult) Method

Definition

Completes the specified asynchronous peek operation.

public:
 System::Messaging::Message ^ EndPeek(IAsyncResult ^ asyncResult);
public System.Messaging.Message EndPeek (IAsyncResult asyncResult);
member this.EndPeek : IAsyncResult -> System.Messaging.Message
Public Function EndPeek (asyncResult As IAsyncResult) As Message

Parameters

asyncResult
IAsyncResult

The IAsyncResult that identifies the asynchronous peek operation to finish and from which to retrieve an end result.

Returns

The Message associated with the completed asynchronous operation.

Exceptions

The asyncResult parameter is null.

The syntax of the asyncResult parameter is not valid.

An error occurred when accessing a Message Queuing method.

Examples

The following code example creates an event handler named MyPeekCompleted, attaches it to the PeekCompleted event handler delegate, and calls BeginPeek to initiate an asynchronous peek operation on the queue that is located at the path ".\myQueue". When a PeekCompleted event is raised, the example peeks the message and writes its body to the screen. The example then calls BeginPeek again to initiate a new asynchronous peek operation.

Remarks

When the PeekCompleted event is raised, EndPeek(IAsyncResult) completes the operation that was initiated by the BeginPeek call. To do so, EndPeek(IAsyncResult) peeks the message.

BeginPeek can specify a time-out, which causes the PeekCompleted event to be raised if the time-out occurs before a message appears in the queue. When a time-out occurs without a message arriving in the queue, a subsequent call to EndPeek(IAsyncResult) throws an exception.

EndPeek(IAsyncResult) is used to read the message that caused the PeekCompleted event to be raised.

If you want to continue to asynchronously peek messages, you can again call BeginPeek after calling EndPeek(IAsyncResult).
