Hi,

I want to do some multithread application.

My code for now is based on collector_CC1310_LAUNCHXL.

I am surprised that Collector_process function which is in while(1) is rarely entered.

I was checking that with some flag and it was entered only 4 times in few seconds.

Could someone give me a hint why it may function that way?

I have wanted to use Texas`s function Util_setEvent() to set something in other thread but it is checked to rare.

Best regards,

Please refer to the following Simplelink Academy training. It explains some of the timing parameters that you can play around with:

Hi,

I do not understand how this can help in my case.

I see that I can change Polling Interval or Reporting Interval.

But what I do not understand is why function which is in while(1) is not called continuously.

Does collector example have some sleep function that I do not see?

BR,

Artur

Hi Arthur,

I will explain this for you but just as a general advice, if you need to process something on the side with a regular interval I would advice you to set up a separate clock.

Collector_process calls ApiMac_processIncoming which is basically a short hand for semaphore_pend(). So the ApiMac_processIncoming() function only returns when a sepaphore is posted to appSemHandle. While waiting for this semaphore, the task is sleeping.
