My implementation of a message queue service through Winsock2 API.

Steps to contribute

• Fork this repository and clone down your copy in your system.

• Setting the proper upstream. Switch to your forked master branch, pull codes from upstream, then create a new branch.

  $ git remote add upstream https://github.com/1502shivam-singh/Message-queue-service.git
  $ git checkout master
  $ git pull upstream master
  $ git checkout -b IssueNo
  

• As the service is written using the Winsock2 library, Windows would be a better OS for running this. For BSD OSs compatibility, some basic porting will be required (Mostly for WSA... type functions)

• After coding, then push codes to your fork repo.

  $ git add modified-file-names
  $ git commit -m 'commit message'
  $ git push origin issueNo
  

• Finally submit a PR

Message queue system

The service.cpp is a multithreaded server node

---- t1 thread : dequeueing recevied messages and sending to receiver after some wait (randomised, generated to mimic actual wait)

---- t2 thread : receiving message from client and enqueuing in the message queue

Client keeps sending data to this service on server Server receives the data and queues it in a queue on one thread and other thread routes these messages after dequeuing
