Message queue deployment

[Brian Keating]

hello,
doesn anyone know how to deploy message queues?
I've got a program which uses message queues and i wish to deploy it,
one click deployment in vs2005 doesn't allow me to specify message queues
and a setup project doesn't allow me to specify message queues.

Any help appreciated

thanks
Brian

You can just create the queue in code using MessageQueue.Cr eate. Use
MessageQueue.Ex ists to check whether it exists on startup, and create
it if it doesn't.

Re: Message queue deployment

hi jon,
thanks for your reply.

my question was a bit ambiguous granted,
what i actually ment was.

If the message queue component is not installed on my windows xp machine how
can i install this from my setup/deployment project?

like for examply if .NET Framework is not installed i can mark it as a
prerequisite of my click once application deployment.
I'd really like to see Message Queues as a prefrequisite or at least have a
setup project that installs the message queue component.

thanks for you help though

regards
brian

Ah, message queuing itself. I'm afraid I don't know, in that case :(
