Instance Public methods
dropped?()

Returns true if this queue entry represents a dropped message count (see dropped), else +false (see terminate? then payload).

Source: show 

# File lib/hoodoo/communicators/pool.rb, line 595
def dropped?
  @dropped != nil && @dropped > 0
end
sync?()

Returns true if this queue entry represents a request to push a message onto the processing Thread's sync Queue.

Source: show 

# File lib/hoodoo/communicators/pool.rb, line 588
def sync?
  @sync == true
end
terminate?()

Returns true if encountering this queue entry should terminate the processing thread, else false (see dropped? then payload).

# File lib/hoodoo/communicators/pool.rb, line 581
def terminate?
  @terminate == true
