2009, january, 22 download

Most services and some constants and types are renamed. New naming scheme is: OS_<object>_<action>_<suffix>, where:

1. This modification was made to simplify membering all services and to simplify programming when using context substituting editor.
2. To view all names replacements see file "osa\service\osa_oldnames.h"
3. Renaming in OSA:
   • Object names:
     • SMsg → Smsg
     • QMsg → Queue
     • QSMsg → SQueue
     • CSem → Csem
     • BSem → Bsem
     • DTimer → Dtimer
     • STimer → Stimer
   • Constants:
     • OS_ENABLE_QMSG → OS_ENABLE_QUEUE
     • OS_ENABLE_QSMSG → OS_ENABLE_SQUEUE
     • OS_ENABLE_INT_QMSG → OS_ENABLE_INT_QUEUE
   • Types:
     • OST_MSG_CB → OST_MSG_CB
     • OST_QUEUE → OST_QUEUE
     • OST_SQUEUE → OST_SQUEUE
4. Types of MSG and SMSG now can be changed only througth OS_MSG_TYPE and OS_SMSG_TYPE constants.
5. Source code was formatted to be most friendly to programmer
6. New OSAcfg_Tool aviable to work with old- and new-styled names.

OSA 90200 is compatibile to all projects written with older versions. There is only one exception: types of MSG and SMSG can not be modified directly in OSAcfg.h. If they will, compiler will exit with "OSA error #14" or "OSA error #15" (see error list. This problem is fixed by changing in SAcfg.h OST_MSG→OS_MSG_TYPE and OST_SMSG→OS_SMSG_TYPE.

• Bug fixed: HT-PICC have a bug with assembler optimization when inline assembler used. In rare cases due to this bug, situation with incorrect RP1:RP0 settings could occure when returning to task after context switching. This bug has been worked arround by replacing assembler MACRO with C-MACRO (see MACRO _goto_OS_SchedRetPoint and _OS_GetReturnPoint in osa_picc16.h)

2009, january, 9 download

  • OS_ENABLE_INT_SMSG
  • OS_ENABLE_INT_QMSG

(Constant OS_ENABLE_ALL does not include OS_ENEBALE_INT_xxx!)

• Services for work in interrupts can be used with same services from task (i.e. OS_Csem_Signal_I and OS_Csem_Signal can be used in one program now)
• It is possible now to pause, continue and delete (or stop) task from external tasks. Services added:
  • OS_Task_GetCur()
  • OS_Task_Delete(pTask)
  • OS_Task_Pause(pTask)
  • OS_Task_Continue(pTask)

Added macro "this_task" wich means pointer to task being executed at now.
