Concurrent Priority Queue in .NET 4.0

Question

It seems there are lots of improvements in .NET 4.0 related to concurrency that might rely on concurrent priority queues. Is there decent priority queue implementation insid

Answer 1

You may need to roll your own. A relatively easy way would be to have an array of regular queues, with priority decreasing.

Basically, you would insert into the queue for the appropriate priority. Then, on the consumer side, you would go down the list, from highest to lowest priority, checking to see if the queue is non-empty, and consuming an entry if so.
