The message queue that is built into each task is shown in Figure 15-3the figure below.

Task message queue services in µC/OS-III start with the OSTaskQ???() prefix, and services available to the application programmer are described in Appendix A, “µCµC/OS-III API Reference”Reference. Setting OS_CFG_TASK_Q_EN in os_cfg.h enables task message queue services. The code for task message queue management is found in os_task.c.
