MessageQueue.Exists(String) Method

Definition

Determines whether a Message Queuing queue exists at the specified path.

public:
 static bool Exists(System::String ^ path);
public static bool Exists (string path);
static member Exists : string -> bool
Public Shared Function Exists (path As String) As Boolean

Parameters

path
String

The location of the queue to find.

Returns

true if a queue with the specified path exists; otherwise, false.

Exceptions

The path syntax is not valid.

An error occurred when accessing a Message Queuing method.

-or-

The Exists(String) method is being called on a remote private queue

The application used format name syntax when verifying queue existence.

Examples

The following code example verifies whether a Message Queuing queue exists, and then deletes it.

#using <system.dll>
#using <system.messaging.dll>

using namespace System;
using namespace System::Messaging;
int main()
{
   
   // Determine whether the queue exists.
   if ( MessageQueue::Exists( ".\\myQueue" ) )
   {
      try
      {
         
         // Delete the queue.
         MessageQueue::Delete( ".\\myQueue" );
      }
      catch ( MessageQueueException^ e ) 
      {
         if ( e->MessageQueueErrorCode == MessageQueueErrorCode::AccessDenied )
         {
            Console::WriteLine( "Access is denied. Queue might be a system queue." );
         }
         
         // Handle other sources of MessageQueueException.
      }

   }

   return 0;
}

Remarks

The Exists(String) method determines whether a Message Queuing queue exists at a specified path. No method exists to determine whether a queue with a specified format name exists. For more information about the format name syntax and other path syntax forms, see the Path property.)

Exists(String) is an expensive operation. Use it only when it is necessary within the application.

Note

The Exists(String) method does not support the FormatName prefix.

The syntax for the path parameter depends on the type of queue, as shown in the following table.

Queue type Syntax
Public queue MachineName\QueueName

Exists(String) cannot be called to verify the existence of a remote private queue.

For more syntax, see the Path property.

Alternatively, you can use the Label to describe the queue path.

Reference Syntax
Label Label:[ label ]
