Create queue example

var client = new AmazonSQSClient();

var attrs = new Dictionary<string, string>();

// Maximum message size of 256 KiB (1,024 bytes * 256 KiB = 262,144 bytes).
int maxMessage = 256 * 1024;

attrs.Add(QueueAttributeName.DelaySeconds,
  TimeSpan.FromSeconds(5).TotalSeconds.ToString());
attrs.Add(QueueAttributeName.MaximumMessageSize, maxMessage.ToString());
attrs.Add(QueueAttributeName.MessageRetentionPeriod,
  TimeSpan.FromDays(4).TotalSeconds.ToString());
attrs.Add(QueueAttributeName.ReceiveMessageWaitTimeSeconds,
  TimeSpan.FromSeconds(5).TotalSeconds.ToString());
attrs.Add(QueueAttributeName.VisibilityTimeout,
  TimeSpan.FromHours(12).TotalSeconds.ToString());

var request = new CreateQueueRequest
{
  Attributes = attrs,
  QueueName = "MyTestQueue"
};

var response = client.CreateQueue(request);

Console.WriteLine("Queue URL: " + response.QueueUrl);
