//
// = DESCRIPTION
//    This is a test to verify and illustrate the static and dynamic
//    priority mechanisms of the <ACE_Message_Queue> class and the
//    <ACE_Dynamic_Message_Queue> class.  As in the
//    <Priority_Buffer_Test>, a producer generates messages and
//    enqueues them, and a consumer dequeues them and checks their
//    ordering.
//
//    In these tests, every effort is made to ensure that there is
//    plenty of time for the messages to be enqueued and dequeued,
//    with messages that *should* meet their deadlines actually
//    meeting them, while messages that should miss their deadlines
//    are delayed so that they actually miss them.  It is, however,
//    remotely possible that this test could yield a false negative:
//    the dynamic queues could work correctly but due to timing
//    variations the test could indicate failure.
//
//    Three message queues are obtained from the message queue
//    factory, one static, two dynamic (one deadline based, and one
//    laxity based) and the same supplier behavior is used each time:
//    the messages are preallocated and their static information
//    valued, the current time is obtained and deadlines are set, with
//    half of the messages given late deadlines, and the other half of
//    the messages given reachable deadlines.  The producer then
//    immediately enqueues all messages.
//
//    Two separate tests are run, one which verifies messages are
//    correctly ordered my the given queues, and one which generates
//    performance numbers for the various queues under increasing
//    numbers of messages.  In the first test, the consumer is passed
//    the filled queue and a string with the expected order in which
//    the messages should dequeue.  In the second test, measurements
//    are made as non-intrusive as possible, with no ordering checks.
