*
* Description : This function is used to flush the contents of the message queue.
*
* Arguments   : none
*
* Returns     : OS_NO_ERR           upon success
*               OS_ERR_EVENT_TYPE   If you didn't pass a pointer to a queue
*               OS_ERR_PEVENT_NULL  If 'pevent' is a NULL pointer
*
* WARNING     : You should use this function with great care because, when to flush the queue, you LOOSE
*               the references to what the queue entries are pointing to and thus, you could cause
*               'memory leaks'.  In other words, the data you are pointing to that's being referenced
*               by the queue entries should, most likely, need to be de-allocated (i.e. freed).

*
* Arguments  : pevent        is a pointer to the event control block associated with the desired queue
*
*              timeout       is an optional timeout period (in clock ticks).  If non-zero, your task will

*                            specified by this argument.  If you specify 0, however, your task will wait
*                            forever at the specified queue or, until a message arrives.
*
*              err           is a pointer to where an error message will be deposited.  Possible error
*                            messages are:
*
*                            OS_NO_ERR           The call was successful and your task received a
*                                                message.
*                            OS_TIMEOUT          A message was not received within the specified timeout
*                            OS_ERR_EVENT_TYPE   You didn't pass a pointer to a queue
*                            OS_ERR_PEVENT_NULL  If 'pevent' is a NULL pointer
*                            OS_ERR_PEND_ISR     If you called this function from an ISR and the result
*                                                would lead to a suspension.
*                            OS_ERR_PEND_LOCKED  If you called this function with the scheduler is locked
*
* Returns    : != (void *)0  is a pointer to the message received
*              == (void *)0  if you received a NULL pointer message or,
*                            if no message was received or,

*                            if you didn't pass a pointer to a queue.
*
* Note(s)    : As of V2.60, this function allows you to receive NULL pointer messages.
