+=head1 NAME
+
+IPC::Msg - SysV Msg IPC object class
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+    use IPC::SysV qw(IPC_PRIVATE S_IRWXU S_IRWXG S_IRWXO);
+    use IPC::Msg;
+    
+    $msg = new IPC::Msg(IPC_PRIVATE, S_IRWXU | S_IRWXG | S_IRWXO);
+    
+    $msg->snd(pack("L a*",$msgtype,$msg));
+

+    
+    $msg->remove;
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+=head1 METHODS
+
+=over 4
+
+=item new ( KEY , FLAGS )
+
+Creates a new message queue associated with C<KEY>. A new queue is
+created if
+
+=over 4
+
+=item *
+
+C<KEY> is equal to C<IPC_PRIVATE>
+
+=item *
+
+C<KEY> does not already  have  a  message queue
+associated with it, and C<I<FLAGS> & IPC_CREAT> is true.
+
+=back
+
+On creation of a new message queue C<FLAGS> is used to set the
+permissions.
+
+=item id
+
+Returns the system message queue identifier.
+
+=item rcv ( BUF, LEN [, TYPE [, FLAGS ]] )
+
+Read a message from the queue. Returns the type of the message read. See
+L<msgrcv>
+
+=item remove
+
+Remove and destroy the message queue from the system.
+
+=item set ( STAT )
+
+=item set ( NAME => VALUE [, NAME => VALUE ...] )
+
+C<set> will set the following values of the C<stat> structure associated
+with the message queue.
+
+    uid
+    gid
+    mode (oly the permission bits)
+    qbytes
+
+C<set> accepts either a stat object, as returned by the C<stat> method,
+or a list of I<name>-I<value> pairs.
+
+=item snd ( TYPE, MSG [, FLAGS ] )
+
+Place a message on the queue with the data from C<MSG> and with type C<TYPE>.
+See L<msgsnd>.
+
+=item stat
+
+Returns an object of type C<IPC::Msg::stat> which is a sub-class of
+C<Class::Struct>. It provides the following fields. For a description
+of these fields see you system documentation.
+
+    uid
+    gid
+    cuid
+    cgid
+    mode
+    qnum
+    qbytes
+    lspid
+    lrpid
+    stime
+    rtime
+    ctime
