The data queue entries are completely variable length. When you receive an
entry it returns a length of the number of bytes it put in the buffer. The
max is just the maximum size of a record. When you write you give it a
length and it will write that many bytes.

Can a data queue have varying length entries so long as the entries are
less than the max length defined in the crtdtaq command? If so, does it
already know how long the entry is, or do we have to deal with that
programatically?
