 *
 * Receive an item from a queue.  The item is received by copy so a buffer of
 * adequate size must be provided.  The number of bytes copied into the buffer
 * was defined when the queue was created.
 *
 * This function must not be used in an interrupt service routine.  See
 * xQueueReceiveFromISR for an alternative that can.
 *

 *

 * be copied.
 *
 * @param xTicksToWait The maximum amount of time the task should block
 * waiting for an item to receive should the queue be empty at the time
 * of the call.    The time is defined in tick periods so the constant
 * portTICK_RATE_MS should be used to convert to real time if this is required.
 *
 * @param xJustPeek When set to true, the item received from the queue is not
 * actually removed from the queue - meaning a subsequent call to
