From: Eric Wong Date: 2010-05-09T17:18:56+09:00 Subject: [ANN] posix_mq 0.5.1 - fix notify(&block) POSIX message queues allow local processes to exchange data in the form of messages. This API is distinct from that provided by System V message queues, but provides similar functionality. * http://bogomips.org/ruby_posix_mq/ * ruby.posix.mq@librelist.com * git://git.bogomips.org/ruby_posix_mq.git Changes: Fix POSIX_MQ#notify(&block) usage, this regression was introduced in 0.4.0 and our tests for it were broken, as well. Not many people use POSIX_MQ.notify(&block), however, as it's only supported under Linux at the moment and "POSIX_MQ.notify = signal" is more portable and efficient. Of course, it's possible to use POSIX message queues without notifications at all in blocking mode. (and Linux and FreeBSD also allow POSIX_MQ objects to be IO.select-ed). -- Eric Wong
