PxTaskSignalEvents_Pxhnd()

Signal events to a task (handler service).

APPLIES TO

8.2.0

SYNOPSIS
PxError_t PxTaskSignalEvents_Pxhnd (PxTask_t TaskId, PxEvents_t events);
ARGUMENTS
TaskId

Task to send the events to

events

Events to send

RETURN VALUES
  • PXROS error code

ERROR CODES

PXERR_GLOBAL_ILLEGAL_CORE

the requested task is not on the same core

PXERR_TASK_ILLTASK

TaskId is not a valid task object

DESCRIPTION

PxTaskSignalEvents_Pxhnd signals the events specified in events to TaskId. There they are saved until handled by task.

If TaskId waits for any of the events (with a PxAwaitEvents call or a call with the _EvWait suffix), the task is readied and the service returns. If some of the task’s aborting events occur (see PxExpectAbort) and task’s abort mechanism is enabled, the PxExpectAbort call returns prematurely. If the events are signaled to a task on an other core, PXROS will allocate an object for intercore communication to send this request to the other core for execution.

PxTaskSignalEvents_Pxhnd is the handler service. The handler service can not send events to tasks on other cores because it can not allocate an object for the request intercore communication.

Note the PxTaskSignalEvents_Pxhnd() is functionally identical to PxTaskSignalEvents_Hnd().
