Message Files

A message file is a text or binary file containing one or more messages. Message files are described in detail in the TIBCO SmartSockets User’s Guide. A message file is created with the function TipcMsgFileCreate or TipcMsgFileCreateFromFile using a creation mode that is defined in this way:

typedef enum { 
   T_IPC_MSG_FILE_CREATE_READ,         /* read (auto-detect text or binary) */ 
   T_IPC_MSG_FILE_CREATE_WRITE,        /* write in text mode */ 
   T_IPC_MSG_FILE_CREATE_WRITE_BINARY, /* write in binary mode */ 
   T_IPC_MSG_FILE_CREATE_APPEND        /* append (auto-detect text or binary) */ 
}  T_IPC_MSG_FILE_CREATE_MODE;
