Scheduler

Post by Tom »

I'm working on the scheduler function wright now, and I'm searching for any docs about this topic. Also, I have a question - when should I do the task switch ? I did this in the timer interrupt, but (now :) I know that this was the wrong way to do it. Any thoughts ?

Ummm yeah sorry but, use the timer interrupt to start you task manager.
Really the only other way is cooperative multitasking and it only
takes one bad app to screw up the whole thing.
