#88175 - Tasks or Applications?
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Joseph Hebert said:
Hi Ian,

There is a reason that what you are doing is not multitasking. The various tasks are all done in your program. Priorities are established by your program and your program never surrenders (or loses) control of the ยต-controller.


Depends on your definition of task. In the PC and main frame world it means an application.. In that sense there is a single application running on a microcontroller then it is not multi-tasking. In the sense that a single microncontroller undertakes several tasks simultaneously it is multi-tasking
