Hi!

Is there a chance to write a value into a queue of one item size while overwriting the existing item? Or do i have to empty a queue first, before i can fill in a new item?

Thanks a lot,
Dennis

There is not currently a method of overwriting queue items, but it is a good idea and I will look into adding it in.

Oh, very good, Richard! I’d be pleased to see it.

While you’re at it, maybe you could also implement an ISR-equivalent for

xQueuePeek()

So, it’d be nice to check for an item inside a Queue without removing it and doing so without timeout. Just - “Is there an item? Ah, take it, but leave it” or “Is there an item? No. Well then - never mind…”

Thanks again,
Dennis
