title: Is there such a thing as a MessageQueueWatcher in .NET?
body: <p>I currently use a System.IO.FileSystemWatcher as part of a "roll your own" message queue system (passing XML "messages" between servers using SOAP web services, writing the "messages" to a specific folder on disk where a Windows Service running a FileSystemWatcher pounces on the new "messages" as they arrive and do something productive with them). I wrote this back in the days of .NET 1.0 or 1.1 (I forget which) as an alternative to using COM-interop to whatever the MSMQ SDK was back then. With all of that as background, I'm considering replacing this ad hoc message queuing scheme with a "true" message queuing implementation. Problem is, there doesn't seem to be an MSMQ equivalent to the FileSystemWatcher to automatically pick new messages off of the queue as they arrive. Is it buried somewhere in the .NET framework or am I going to have to either use polling or leave things they way they are for now?</p>
