Hands-on with FreeRTOS’s scheduler and tasks
Below, the first section presents the chapter’s FreeRTOS example-program, and the tools used to work with the program. The next section discusses the different ways FreeRTOS can be installed and configured.
Understanding and working with the example-program
The chapter’s example-program is presented here. This is an introduction to using FreeRTOS and to programming with its APIs. The example-program works very similarly to the prior conceptual example, shown in Figure 6.5.
This section describes how the example-program works and how to run it. SystemView provides tools for monitoring and analyzing FreeRTOS execution. Instructions for using those tools are presented, and, the tools are used to explain the example-program’s execution. Those tools will be used throughout the upcoming chapters.
This is an introduction to FreeRTOS programming, so not all aspects of the example-program are presented...
