- Subject: [ECOS] Need clarification for cyg_mbox_timed_get()
The documentation for cyg_mbox_timed_get() states that it "will wait until
either a message is available or until a number of clock ticks have
occurred."
Occurred since when?
I assumed it was clock ticks occurred since the call to
cyg_mbox_timed_get(), but it seems to behave as if it is clock ticks
occurred since boot time (not as useful). What is the correct behavior?
