Scheduling in the OS Editor

Note
This topic is obsolete for projects that either contain AUTOSAR software components or use the EHOOKS target. The OS tab is present when you create the project, but once you have select the ANSI-C target and an AUTOSAR operating system, or the EHOOKS target, the OS tab disappears.

The scheduling of processes is the second major operation performed in the project editor. The operating system does not activate individual processes directly. Instead, processes are grouped together by activation mode into sequences called tasks. These tasks are activated by the operating system and on activation the sequence of processes assigned to the task is executed in the given order.

Note
All the settings in the operating system editor must be specified separately for each combination of target and operating system. However, the settings can be copied between target/OS combinations.
