[FreeRTOS Home] [Live FreeRTOS Forum] [FAQ] [Archive Top] [April 2006 Threads] Waiting On Event - Time Out - SuspendPosted by John W. on April 28, 2006 Hello Richard,
I was wondering about the following - and if it's possible to suspend in such a way as to make the task startup back at the beginning:
vTaskA(...){
for (;;)
vTaskSuspend(NULL); // 'normal' - gets resumed elsewhere
. .do stuff . . . while ( event != event_complete ) {
if (timeout++ == TIME_OUT) {
vTaskSuspend(NULL) } }
. .more stuff .
} // end task
I guess the problem is that if a timeout occurs - more stuff gets done when the task is resumed - instead of do stuff getting done first.
I don't know if this is possible - but is there a way to suspend that will force the task to resume at the 'top' of the task?
Thanks! John W.

RE: Waiting On Event - Time Out - SuspendPosted by Richard on April 28, 2006 How about, the task creates another copy of itself then deletes itself?
RE: Waiting On Event - Time Out - SuspendPosted by John W. on April 29, 2006 OK - I guess that could work.
Thanks, John
