[FreeRTOS Home] [Live FreeRTOS Forum] [FAQ] [Archive Top] [May 2010 Threads] A possible bug at the WIN32 simulatorPosted by Cesar Verdes on May 1, 2010 I think that the line: #if(USE_16_BIT_TICKS == 1 ) had to be changed to: #if( configUSE_16_BIT_TICKS == 1 ) in the portmacro.h file of the WIN32 simulator. I'm using the WIN32 simulator for study and understand FreeRTOS. I wanted to experiment with a small portTickType in order to generate a TickCount overflow and I've found that this line is diferent (and possible wrong) compared with other ports. I found the same code diferent at the GCC MCF5235 port. I think that the WIN32 simulator is a great tool for the FreeRTOS study and algorithm tests. Regards, César
RE: A possible bug at the WIN32 simulatorPosted by Cesar Verdes on May 2, 2010 Related with the previous change, I suggest to modify the following line at the portmacro.h file of the WIN32 simulator: #define portMS_TO_TICKS(ms) ( ( portTickType ) (1000*(ms) + (15625)/2)/15625 ) for this one: #define portMS_TO_TICKS(ms) ( ( portTickType ) ((1000*(ms) + (15625)/2)/15625 ) ) adding this couple of parenthesis. Without the parenthesis and if the portTickType is defined as unsigned portSHORT an overflow occurs within the portMS_TO_TICKS macro with values of ms greater than 57.
