Message Types

Each message has a type property which defines the purpose of the message. Message types are described in the TIBCO SmartSockets User’s Guide. All of the standard message types that SmartSockets supports are defined in <rtworks/mt.h>, which is included by <rtworks/ipc.h>.

The list of known message types can be traversed with the function TipcMtTraverse. This is how the traversal function used by TipcMtTraverse is defined:

typedef T_PTR (*T_IPC_MT_TRAV_FUNC) 
   (T_STR name, T_IPC_MT mt, T_PTR arg); 

For more information on traversal functions, see the TIBCO SmartSockets Utilities reference. The specified traversal function for TipcMtTraverse must be defined with these arguments.
