1.6.3.2. Inter-Task Communication Resources

The following global handles (or pointers) create and manipulate your MicroC/OS-II inter-task communication resources. All the resources begin with SSS, indicating a public resource provided by the Nios II Simple Socket Server that is shared between software modules. The SSSCreateOSDataStructs function, invoked from SSSInitialTask() declares and creates these resources in simple_socket_server.c.
  • SSSLEDCommandQ—SSSLEDCommandQ is a MicroC/OS-II message queue that sends commands from the simple socket server task to the development board LED control task, LEDManagementTask().
