error in online documentation

Posted by Peter A. Bigot on June 23, 2012

The prototype for vApplicationStackOverflowHook in section Stack Usage at http://www.freertos.org/Stacks-and-stack-overflow-checking.html has the wrong type for the task handle parameter:


void vApplicationStackOverflowHook( xTaskHandle *pxTask, signed portCHAR *pcTaskName );

It should not be a pointer to a task handle.

Hmm. The prototype is as per the extern in tasks.c - however the demos use both with and without the pointer, whereas the stack check macros themselves don't.

I will straighten this out. Thanks for the note.

Regards.
