ZigBee Queue Resources#
The ZigBee Queue resources are concerned with creating and operating queues for passing messages from one task to another. These resources are provided in the header file ZQueue.h.
The ZigBee Queue functions are described in Section 10.1.1.
The ZigBee Queue structures are described in Section 10.1.2.
ZigBee queue functions#
The ZigBee Queue functions are listed below.

ZQ_vQueueCreate#
void ZQ_vQueueCreate(tszQueue *psQueueHandle,
const uint32 uiQueueLength,
const uint32 uiItemSize,
uint8 *pu8StartQueue);
Description
This function creates a message queue for use by the application or stack (message queues are described in Section 6.9.1). The size of the queue and the size of a message in the queue must be specified, as well as the location in memory where the queue should start. A unique handle must also be given to the queue, where this handle is a pointer to a tszQueuestructure that contains up-to-date information about the queue.
Parameters#
psQueueHandle Handle of message queue - this is a pointer to a
tszQueuestructure (see Section 10.1.2.1).uiQueueLength Size of the queue in terms of the number of messages that it can hold.
uiItemSize Size of a message in the queue, in bytes.
pu8StartQueue Pointer to the start of the message queue.

ZQ_bQueueSend#
bool_t ZQ_bQueueSend(void *pvQueueHandle,
const void *pvItemToQueue);
Description#
This function submits a message to the specified message queue. The return code indicates whether the message was successfully added to the queue.

Parameters#
pvQueueHandle Handle of message queue
pvItemToQueue Pointer to the message to be added to the queue
Parent topic:ZQ_bQueueSend
Returns#
Boolean indicating the outcome of the operation:
TRUE - message successfully added to the queue
FALSE - message not added to the queue

ZQ_bQueueReceive#
ZQ_bQueueReceive(void *pvQueueHandle,
void *pvItemFromQueue);
Description#
This function obtains a message from the specified message queue. The return code indicates whether a message was successfully obtained from the queue.
Parent topic:ZQ_bQueueReceive
Parameters#
pvQueueHandle: Handle of message queue
pvItemFromQueue: Pointer to memory location to receive the obtained message
Parent topic:ZQ_bQueueReceive
Returns#
Boolean indicating the outcome of the operation:
TRUE - message successfully obtained from the queue.
FALSE - message not obtained from the queue.

ZQ_bQueueIsEmpty#
bool_t ZQ_bQueueIsEmpty(void *pvQueueHandle);
Description#
This function checks whether the specified message queue is empty. The return code indicates whether the queue is empty.
Parent topic:ZQ_bQueueIsEmpty
Parameters#
pvQueueHandle Handle of message queue
Parent topic:ZQ_bQueueIsEmpty
Returns#
Boolean indicating the outcome of the operation:
TRUE - message queue is empty.
FALSE - message queue is not empty.
