Ricardo,

As far as I know, Darwin does not support System V message queues. For a portable IPC I suggest you use local/unix sockets -- check the man page "man unix".

BTW, for this kind of *nix level questions, I suggest that you check with the Darwin development list email@hidden.

hey all
i am writing a daemon for a game, which is divided in three processes.
one process receives data from sockets and parses it to structures so the other process can handle them. as a former linux adept, i decided to use System V message queues, since these are widely supported in various *nixes and shouldn't be much of a problem to use in mac os x. the problem i stumbled upon is the lack of an include file - msg.h.
i wonder if there's any reason why this file is not implemented. does anyone have it? i find it akward because all other files are there (sys/ipc.h and stuff)
Are there any alternatives to this form of interprocess comunication that do pass entire structs and are portable?

thanks in advance!
