µTasker general / Re: Visual Studio exception (especially with Vista)

« on: January 18, 2009, 12:47:36 AM »

Ok. Here is the notes:

FTP is unstable, for example, everytime I select and upload files(htm and gif etc), %50 percantage VC++ stops at

if (!iInterruptLevel) {
        *(int *)0 = 0;                                                   // basic error - cause simulator exception
    }     

and "Copying..." window is there all time as VC++ stopped, and I had to kill task in windows task manager.
I'm not insisting on simulation to evaluate the utasker, I just force my chance as I have free time in the weekend and my hardware at office

And especially when overwriting to files it sometimes break here, maybe it gives an idea.

LPC23XXSim.c

  if (iOldLineBlank == 0) {                                // check that we only write 1 to non-blank lines
                    iLineLength = 0;
                    while (iLineLength < FLASH_LINE_SIZE) {
                        if (ucNewLine[iLineLength++] != 0xff) {
                            *(unsigned char *)0 = 0;                     // writing non- '1' to a non-blank line - signal so that this can be corrected
                        }
                    }
                }


- I tried LAN cable instead of WLAN and same issue. So problem looks like not related with WLAN
- I am using XP. I cant try it on Vista, as it is the world worst operating system, with lots of errors and headaches...

I have still the same problem...I beleive that is WLAN/OS/Driver related...Also after I make a refresh with F5 in windows explorer at ftp page, the uploaded htm files and logos change diferent names and webserver says file not found...

I have had the same issue with Windows XP. Above fix seem to correct the issue.

Some Notes:
- My XP using Windows.0 folder. I have also Vista installed on Windows folder. So maybe this explains why my XP has the same problem with Vista.
- As I understand, problem rises because of lost packets, not sure...If that is the problem I think wireless ethernet connection triggers this problem quickly as there are lots of lost packages in WLAN system. I am also using WLAN.

µTasker general / Re: Visual C++ files

Thanks Mark.
Very useful information and I agree this is the best method for least confusion and easiest development.
I wanted to make sure, and I know now, #define _WINDOWS does the trick...

µTasker general / Visual C++ files

« on: January 17, 2009, 04:45:37 PM »

Hello,

I'm just started on evaluating utasker.

The first question I'm having confusion is about:

For example, Under uTaskerV1.3 project folder; Are the those files(i.e application.c) same that are used by Visual Studio for the simulator and for the KEIL/IAR etc compilers?

How is it possible with the same files, Visual Studio controls PC ethernet card, and KEIL/IAR controls MCU Ethernet?
There should be a bridge that Visual Studio bypass actual MCU drivers files, and process its own.

NXP^TM LPC2XXX and LPC17XX / Re: Ethernet controller

Hi Mark,

Thank you for the quick reponse. I've been investigating all options and RTOS, TCP/IP Stacks etc for two days.
Still I like the utasker.
I'm sending my comments via private messaging in a few minutes...

Hi Mark,

We are in need of an immediate solution for LPC2368 to work as a FTP client, that can connect to a remote ftp server and make file transfer(download). Do you thnik it is a piece of cake with your rtos, or significant effort still be required?

Thanks,
