consume, cancel and draining the local buffer

[Lars Strojny]

Hi,

scenarios is this, assume 5 messages in a queue and this sequence:

1. amqp_basic_consume() with a prefetch count = 5
2. call amqp_consume_message() once, neither ack nor nack (still 4 messages locally buffered)
3. call amqp_basic_cancel()

Now I want the put the channel in a pristine state, so the next consume will not read orphaned messages. amqp_basic_recover() after cancel will help already and put back all the messages. Question is: is there a better way to drain the local buffer than to call amqp_consume_message() in a loop?
