Someone pointed out that you're after basic.get though. If you are *just* trying to pull 1 message off the queue and then terminate the program, then just drop the loops.

No, the listenq.c sample is the one you want. It really does seem that you're trying to get someone to write your C code for you though - as I said, just remove the looping - and whilst we are very keen to help with rabbit questions, I suspect this might be going a bit far even for the more enthusiastic among us. ;)
