This section refers to the following sample application(s): |
As detailed in Resources section, the uC/OS-II library shipped with the
defines the number of resource available to your application. uC/OS-II will not allow your application to allocate more resources as available. For example, the OSSemCreate(0) returns NULL when no more semaphores can be created because uC/OS-II ran out of Event Control Blocks (ECBs).The 00-uc_resources Sample Application
The 00-uc_resources sample application allows you to "see" the number of free resources, both the number of ECBs, and the number of timers. This sample application creates a single task called resourceTask which prints the remaining number of ECBs as it does the following operations:
- create a semaphore
- delete a semaphore
- open the SPI device
- open the I2C device
- open the 1-Wire device
- join a network
- create a notification channel for GPIO events
- create a notification channel for UART events
Each of these operations causes the | Include Page |

to allocate/free some number of ECBs and timers. The 00-uc_resources CLI output allows you to follow the allocation of these resources. After doing the operations listed above, the 00-uc_resources sample application periodically prints the remaining number of ECBs and timers. Note that these numbers are larger than the ones listed in the Resources section. | No Format |
