threads.js for Rowley

Posted by Glen B. on October 29, 2007
We use Rowley CrossStudio for development. the ARM7_LPC2138_Rowley demo contains a thread.js file.
However, it seems to have a glitch which results in phantom threads being displayed at times. Possibly it has to with a change in the FreeRTOS list data structure. In any case, does anyone have an updated version of threads.js for FreeRTOS that might work better?

Does you application delete tasks? Maybe there is a problem showing tasks that had been deleted or the memory reused?

There will hopefully be an Eclipse plug in soon that will be more sophisticated.

Regards.

There is a single task deleted during initial startup of the scheduler. But we sometimes see 2 of these phantom threads, and they seem to come and go. The truth is that I haven't really looked at the issue, I've just been hoping that it is not a real problem but just a display issue, and that someone else will have the same issue, fix it, and say something about the fix!

Cheers
