... should read at priority 1. Priority 0 should be left to the DSP/BIOS idle task. Cheers, Howard

I am going to guess what is going on here. Firstly I will assume that both are in an endless loop. Assuming they are the same priority, you must run a TSK_yield(). They will not pre-empt. Here's my example. In the DSP/BIOS config file I have two tasks calling _tsk0 and _tsk1, both at priority 0, and a log object LOG0. Try commenting out the TSK_yield from one of the tsk# functions. Also try changing the priorities to see what happens. As well as the Message log, take a look at the CPU Execution graph. #include <log.h> #include <tsk.h> extern LOG_Obj LOG0; void main() { } void tsk0(int nId) { while(1) { int i; for (i=0;i<5;i++) { LOG_printf(&LOG0,"tsk0, id=%d, iter=%d\n",nId,i); } TSK_yield(); } } void tsk1(int nId) { while(1) { int i; for (i=0;i<5;i++) { LOG_printf(&LOG0,"tsk1, id=%d, iter=%d\n",nId,i); } TSK_yield(); } } You will see this in the LOG0 message log: 2695067 tsk1, iter=2 2695068 tsk1, iter=3 2695069 tsk1, iter=4 2695070 tsk0, iter=0 2695071 tsk0, iter=1 2695072 tsk0, iter=2 2695073 tsk0, iter=3 2695074 tsk0, iter=4 2695075 tsk1, iter=0 2695076 tsk1, iter=1 2695077 tsk1, iter=2 2695078 tsk1, iter=3 2695079 tsk1, iter=4 2695080 tsk0, iter=0 2695081 tsk0, iter=1 2695082 tsk0, iter=2 2695083 tsk0, iter=3 2695084 tsk0, iter=4 spru303b http://focus.ti.com/lit/ug/spru303b/spru303b.pdf section 4.4.6 also has a good example.

We feel your pain, but we really can't help you unless you tell us the nature of the error. Cheers! --M

hi to all

I am doing a project in which i have to implement multitasking.
what i have done was that  i created two tsk objects and each have
seperate functions to run.

i have implemented it gradually.

firstly i have defined one functionn and made it to run using one tsk
object.this was ok

then i defined second function and made the second function to run by the
second object.this time error was there.

i am not able to resolve it.

like this i have to implement some more tasks in the same program.but i am
not able to move forward
