Thank you for your tips, I think I'll make something similar...

Being clear is not being picky – thanks for making it clearer.

I see 2 big differences – my implementation deletes pbufs as each one is exhausted of data and I don’t need to keep track of where in the pbuf I’m resuming from.  Each call for len bytes returns len bytes and the next read is at byte len+1.

 

It would be nice if there were a sanctioned method to do what I did since I see it as very common to want to know how much is received and then read part of or all of that amount when it’s large enough to read.
