I have a bunch of processes running on the same machine that should be able to send unicast, multicast and broadcast messages to each other. Messages should be received in the same order that they were sent.
I'm trying to figure out how to implement that. These processes are already sharing the same MySQL database, so I'm thinking that a process which wants to send a message could INSERT it into a table, then another process can SELECT it to read it. This would seem to require all processes to constantly poll the table, though, so I'm thinking maybe I should use something other than MySQL for the shared message queue functionality... Suggestions? Should I: (1) use MySQL as I described above, (2) use MySQL with some other method I haven't thought of, or (3) use something else? --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
