soldat-libposixmq

This is a simple library that exposes POSIX Message Queue functions for soldatserver. Check overview of POSIX Message Queues here. The usage in soldat scriptoce is similar to the POSIX Message Queue. For details see the include/libposixmq.pas.

Since POSIX IPC is not implemented on Windows, the library will only work on Unix-like operating systems like Linux.

Requirements

  • gcc
  • g++
  • cmake
  • make
  • build-essential
  • gcc-multilib
  • g++-multilib

Compiling

mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make

Preparation

  1. Copy compiled libposixmq.so into soldatserver root directory
  2. Change the value of AllowDlls under [ScriptCore3] section in server.ini in your soldatserver to AllowDlls=1 to allow external DLLs loading in your soldatserver (refer to wiki.soldat.pl)
  3. Copy the include/libposixmq.pas into a new directory scripts/libposixmq/ in soldatserver
  4. In future scripts make sure to add this configuration to the scripts' config.ini: 
    [Config]
...
AllowDlls=1

[SearchPaths]
../libposixmq
