basic.get is synchronous call which the client asks the broker: "are there any messages in this queue, if so please give me one".<div><br></div><div>basic.consume is a synchronous call that starts an asynchronous behavior: it tells the broker, "please�deliver�to me the messages in this queue until I say stop". �The messages can then arrive from the broker at any point in the future.</div>
<div><br></div><div>The rabbitmq-c library does have a function to do basic.get (amqp_basic_get). �The rabbitmq-c also has a function to start and stop a consumer (amqp_basic_consume and amqp_basic_cancel). �However it does not have an API to deal with consuming messages.

<p>Hi guys. <br>
I recently� learnd that the c library when using basic get is also blocking. In php its non blocking. What then is the difference� between basicget and consume?� At a c lib level?� <br>
