void vCoRoutineSchedule( void );
Run a co-routine.
vCoRoutineSchedule() executes the highest priority co-routine that is able to run. The co-routine will execute until it either blocks, yields or is preempted by a task. Co-routines execute cooperatively so one co-routine cannot be preempted by another, but can be preempted by a task.
If an application comprises of both tasks and co-routines then vCoRoutineSchedule should be called from the idle task (in an idle task hook).
Example usage:
This idle task hook will schedule a co-routine each time it is called. The rest of the idle task will execute between co-routine calls. void vApplicationIdleHook( void ) { vCoRoutineSchedule(); }
Alternatively, if you do not require any other part of the idle task to execute, the idle task hook can call vCoRoutineScheduler() within an infinite loop. void vApplicationIdleHook( void ) { for( ;; ) { vCoRoutineSchedule(); } }
