I've been with a lot of RTOS' with definitions like the following:
#define GR_WAIT_FOREVER ((GR_TIMEOUT) -1)
#define GR_WAIT_NEVER ((GR_TIMEOUT) 0)
The built in typecast gets rid of the need to use signed ints. The forever
is 0xFFFFFFFF ( 4,294,967,295 ), so you get even more milli-seconds that
you can wait for.
