I Found that example to be useful.

Thanks,

Hi HR,

I tried implementing the dynamic creation of mailbox as given in the example. But the Mailbox_create fails to return a Mailbox_Handle (returns NULL) and I get a message Mailbox Create Failed. Can you suggest me as to why the mailbox creation fails ?

Hi Harsha,

You can create a SYS/BIOS project with an event template and see in event.c how the the Mailbox_create is done,

Thanks,

Hi HR,

Thanks for your reply. I found out that the culprit was the .cfg file which caused this problem. I tried with the new cfg file and it worked. I guess that the cfg file had other modules added which made allocation of memory to create mailbox to fail. This was my observation.

And also I tried creating 3 Mailboxes, it was able to create 1 successfully but not the other two, the reason was that the Error_Block definition and assignment was not used for any of the three Mailbox_create function calls.

Now that i've added Error_Block's for all the three Mailboxes it works perfectly fine.

Harsha,

Great !! Thank you for the update ,
