PeekCompletedEventArgs Class

Definition

Provides data for the PeekCompleted event. When your asynchronous peek operation calls an event handler, an instance of this class is passed to the handler.

public ref class PeekCompletedEventArgs : EventArgs
public class PeekCompletedEventArgs : EventArgs
type PeekCompletedEventArgs = class
    inherit EventArgs
Public Class PeekCompletedEventArgs
Inherits EventArgs
Inheritance
PeekCompletedEventArgs

Examples

The following code example creates an event handler for the PeekCompleted event and associates it with the event delegate by using the PeekCompletedEventHandler. The event handler, MyPeekCompleted, peeks a message and writes its label to the screen.

#using <system.messaging.dll>

      // End the asynchronous peek operation.
      Message^ m = mq->EndPeek( asyncResult->AsyncResult );

      // Display message information on the screen.
      Console::WriteLine( "Message: {0}", static_cast<String^>(m->Body) );

      // Restart the asynchronous peek operation.

Remarks

When you use event notification to peek (read without removing) messages asynchronously from the queue, you must create a method that handles your message processing. Your code must call BeginPeek to begin the asynchronous processing. When a message is peeked, your application is notified through the PeekCompleted event. An instance of PeekCompletedEventArgs is passed into the event delegate that calls your event handler. The data associated with the PeekCompleted event is contained in the delegate's AsyncResult parameter.

There are two ways to provide notification of event completion: event notification and callbacks. PeekCompletedEventArgs is used only with event notification. For information comparing callbacks and event notification, see "Events vs. Callbacks" on MSDN.

PeekCompletedEventArgs provides access to the message that initiated the end of the asynchronous peek operation, through the Message member. This is an alternate access to the message, and behaves much the same as a call to MessageQueue.EndPeek.
