Sorry - it is not clear to me what it is you are saying you want to do? Are you wanting to debug your program, analyse the run time behaviour, analyse the source code, etc?

If you are wanting to view the order in which your tasks are running and making API calls then you can use FreeRTOS+Trace (http://www.freertos.org/FreeRTOS-Plus/FreeRTOS_Plus_Trace/FreeRTOS_Plus_Trace.shtml)

Regards.

ya I meant to do the following things:
1. order in which tasks are running
2. see individual tasks information(status, stack etc)

So how can I do that?
So I need FreeRTOS+Trace to can do that?
(I can add the Trace feature to the normal FreeRTOS kernel by adding library or somekind??)

Thanks!!

FreeRTOS+Trace uses the trace macros that are already embedde in the core FreeRTOS kernel source code. There is a buildable demo for the FreeRTOS Windows simulator here:
http://www.freertos.org/FreeRTOS-Plus/FreeRTOS_Plus_Trace/Free_RTOS_Plus_Trace_CLI_Example.shtml

Task states, stack uses, etc. can be obtained using the API functions, or just viewed using one of the StateViewer plug-ins (available for IAR and Eclipse).

Regards.
