Rate this product

In the C programming language create a pair of programs following the producer / consumer model to pass messages between each other using a message queue.

The consumer program will be responsible for:

setting up the queue with the following key:

ftok(., Z)

displaying characters that are sent by the producer where the message type is 100

removing the queue and exiting once a lowercase q or uppercase Q is received

The producer will:

access the queue created by the consumer

prompt the user to input one keyboard character at a time followed by the enter key

send the keyboard character to the consumer process via message queue
