Access from the outside is permitted only when the task explicitly performs a _Receive operation (with a choice of receiving messages from a specific task or receiving messages from any task). The task can only respond to messages types that are known in advance, all others must be delegated to another task or cause an error _Reply to be issued. The Harmony ... (Update)
