Can portMAX_DELAY symbol be used with software timers?

Hi,

I’m wondering whether portMAX_DELAY can be used as block time in functions like xTimerStart() and xTimerStop() (and related), for example:

xTimerStart( some_handler, portMAX_DELAY );

Official documentation says nothing about it.

Thank you =)

Yes it can. All the functions that take a block time work the same way.
