DESCRIPTION

The PxMsgSend function sends the message msg into the mailbox mbxid. The calling task must be the user of msg. After the message is sent, it does not have a user (temporarily).

IMPLEMENTATION GUIDELINES

Before call

Msg must be a valid message object, requested via PxMsgRequest… or PxMsgEnvelop… or received by a PxMsgReceive… call (V). 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).
The parameter mbxid must be a valid mailbox object id. This id may be
- the calling task’s own mailbox (V)
- the return value of a PxTaskGetMbx() call (V)
- the result of a nameserver query (V)
- part of a message sent by another task (V)
The mailbox may be checked with the macros
- PxMbxIdIsValid() must be true.
- PxMbxIdGet() must not be _PXIllegalObjId.
- PxMbxIdError() must be PXERR_NOERROR otherwise the returned error code has to be interpreted (C).
or with a call of PxMbxCheck() (C).

After call

On success PxMsgSend returns the invalidated message object. This may be checked with one of the following macros:
- PxMsgIdIsValid() must be false.
- PxMsgIdGet() must be _PXIllegalObjId.
- PxMsgIdError() must be PXERR_NOERROR otherwise the returned error code has to be interpreted (C).

Best Practice

No restrictions.
