*
* - exchange messages between two concurrent threads (e.g.: main thread and
* interrupt calls)
* - before using any other function of the messageQueue, init must be called
* - one thread must be data source (use isFull and write)
* - the other thread must be the data sink (use isEmpty and read)
* - two concurrent threads must not use both the write functions and two
* concurrent threads must not use both the read functions
* - read/write return True on success and False if the message could not be
* read/written because the queue is empty/full
* - the size of the messageQueue and the type of the
* messageQueue_QueuedMessage are defined in config_message_queue.h
* - only one messageQueue can be used in a project
