Description:

The _msg_info structure contains information about a message. The members include:

nd

The node descriptor of the client machine as viewed by the server. See " Node descriptors," below.

srcnd

The node descriptor of the server, as viewed by the client.

pid

The process ID of the sending thread.

tid

The thread ID of the sending thread.

chid

The channel ID that the message was received on.

scoid

The server connection ID. This is a unique server-side client process identifier, corresponding to a particular process ID on a particular node.

coid

The client connection ID.

msglen

The number of bytes received.

srcmsglen

The length of the source message, in bytes, as sent by MsgSend*(). This may be greater than the value in msglen. This member is valid only if you set _NTO_CHF_SENDER_LEN in the flags argument to ChannelCreate() for the channel that received the message.

dstmsglen

The length of the client's reply buffer, in bytes, as passed to MsgSend*(). This member is valid only if you set _NTO_CHF_REPLY_LEN in the flags argument to ChannelCreate() for the channel that received the message.

priority

The priority of the sending thread.

flags

Flags that provide information about the sender and message:

• _NTO_MI_ENDIAN_BIG — the sending machine is big endian.
• _NTO_MI_ENDIAN_DIFF — the sending machine has a different endian-ness from the receiving machine.
• _NTO_MI_CONSTRAINED — the message was received from a resource-constrained client. A thread that allocates resource on behalf of a constrained client should temporarily constrain itself too; see Resource constraint thresholds in the Processes chapter of the BlackBerry 10 OS Programmer's Guide.
• _NTO_MI_NET_CRED_DIRTY — used internally.
• _NTO_MI_UNBLOCK_REQ — the client has an unblock pending (i.e. a timeout on the send occurred or a signal was delivered and _NTO_CHF_UNBLOCK is set on the channel).

If msglen is less than srcmsglen and is also less than the receive buffer size, the message is a network transaction that requires more reading of data with MsgRead*().

Node descriptors

The nd (node descriptor) is a temporary numeric description of a remote node; ND_LOCAL_NODE (or 0) is the descriptor for the local node.
