free RTOs for dspic30/33,microc

[wanyama]

Hi Members

iam trying to use micro c for dspic with free RTOs ,i cannot move forward ,when i try to compile the BLANK examples given i get errors,kindly assist.

Hello,

Have you turned on case sensitivity in Options > Output > Output Settings?

I have a problem with Running the RTO_BLANK DEMO provided at Libstock.I have done the following:
1.i'm using dspic33FJ256GP710A,instead of the dspic33EP512MU810 as used in the blank demo example.

2.i have compiled the program with no errors,my compiler has a license.

3.i'm able to download the program into the microcontroller without any problem.

my problem is the program does not execute in the task loop.i have only one task,which the LEDs at portb are supposed to turn ON.the LEDs do not come ON.
in the main LOOP the LEDs turn ON.

i have set the heap at 2000.

is it that the vTaskStartScheduler(); is not starting?what could be the problem?kindly assist.

i have tried to seek assistance at the Forum ,but all discussions and solutions are based on PIC32 and ARM systems.

N/B attached is the program

Hi,

I believe that my colleague answered you on the ticket, so you can continue the conversation there.

Kind regards,

Hi

yes ,he said porting is not in your scope of, support service.i will have to seek assistance elsewhere or use the dspic33EP512MU810.
final question,does mikroc for dspic support ,dual core microcontrollers?

Thanks
Best Regards

Hi Patrick,

Unfortunately, our compiler does not support dual core microcontrollers, for now.

Kind regards,
Jovana

Hi Jovana

thanks ,for your information.i hope you will put it in the "to do list",we need it ,in the near Future.

Regards

Patrick

Hi,

I have the exact same issue with the dsPIC33FJ256MC510. I guess the forum conversations say that it is about porting, and requires professional assistance. Is it case, can't I do it on my own?

Thanks, regards
