DESCRIPTION

PxMsgRequest_NoWait function creates a messages with a data area of size msgsize specified in byte units. The data area is taken from memory class mc, and the message structure is taken from object pool opool. The message object handle is returned. If there is no free object available, the PxMsgRequest_NoWait immediately returns with error code PXERR_OBJ_NOOBJ.

The calling task becomes the (permanent) owner and the (temporary) user of the message created. The call also fails, if the memory class does not contain sufficient memory to meet the request. A fatal PXROS error occurs, if mc is fixsized and its block size is smaller than msgsize. If msgsize is zero, no data buffer is requested. Only the metadata of the message can be used.

IMPLEMENTATION GUIDELINES
Before call
  • msgsize must be a plausible value given as a constant (V) or a variable (C).

  • McId must be a valid PXROS-HR memory class and the calling task must have the access right to take memory from this memory class (V). The validity of McId may also be checked by the PxMcIsValid macro (F). The memory class must be created on the same core as the caller runs on. The creator core id can be read with the macro PxMcCoreId and the own core id with PxGetCoreId (C). Typically the task’s default memory class PXMcTaskdefault is used for this purpose.

  • OpoolId must be a valid PXROS-HR object pool and the calling task must have the access right to take objects from this object pool (V). The validity of OpoolId may also be checked by the PxOpoolIsValid macro (F). The object pool must be created on the same core as the caller runs on. The creator core id can be read with the macro PxOpoolCoreId and the own core id with PxGetCoreId (C). Typically the task’s default object pool PXOpoolTaskdefault is used for this purpose.

After call
  • The returned value is the id of type PxMsg_t. This id may be checked with one of the following macros:

    • PxMsgIdIsValid() must be true.

    • PxMsgIdGet() must not be _PXIllegalObjId.

    • PxMsgIdError() must be PXERR_NOERROR otherwise the returned error code has to be interpreted (C).

Best Practice
  • No restrictions.
