The Source

The following is the source code for the msgtool facility. It should compile clean on any recent (decent) kernel revision that supports System V IPC. Be sure to enable System V IPC in your kernel when doing a rebuild!

On a side note, this utility will create a message queue if it does not exist, no matter what type of action is requested.

NOTE: Since this tool uses the ftok() function to generate IPC key values, you may encounter directory conflicts. If you change directories at any point in your script, it probably won't work. Another solution would be to hardcode a more complete path into msgtool, such as ``/tmp/msgtool'', or possibly even allow the path to be passed on the command line, along with the operational arguments.
