The vxWorks documentation states: The WDB agent itself is independent of the target operating system: it attaches to run-time OS services through a virtual-function run-time interface. The WDB agent can execute before VxWorks is running (as in the early stages of porting a BSP to a new board)." How can I use the debug agent ...

Hi All, We want to create shared data in the virtual memory area in vxWorks. We got some information that we need to use vmLib API for mapping virtual memory to our application. But we dont know much about how to use this. If anybody has used the same or related thing please tell me how to solve the issue. Best regards Anil ...
Can anyone send me some sample code on how to send and receive more than one event in a single task in vxworks. ...
If there are 3 tasks(T1,T2,t3) with priority P1 P2 P3. P1 is pended. Assume that task P2 is doing some computation. During its execution, it wants to Yield the CPU to other tasks in the system. Will TaskDelay(0) still works in this condition? or it works only when all the tasks are with same priority? Regards, Prabhu ...
I finally have a hardware guy that is insterested in controlling the firmware. This is for vxworks firmware. The tornado (2.2.1) gui creates a project file that has a list of files that were modified but they seem to be from all over the directory tree. So I am tempted to just controll those files. ...
We have an existing VxWorks 5.5 project and want to port it to VxWorks 6.6. VxWorks 6.x has a bunch of new capabilities (MMU, RTPs, etc...) which we don't want to use at this point since it would complicate the porting effort. How do we specify that we want a 5.5 compatible environment? ...
I need to run multiple instances of a C program in VxWorks (VxWorks has a global namespace). The problem is that the C program defines global variables (which are intended for use by a specific instance of that program) which conflict in the global namespace. I would like to make minimal changes to the program in order to make this work....

Hi All, I have a global struct added to my task using taskVarAdd() API. But during some scenarios, the same global struct is is added to the same task again using taskVarAdd() API. [i.e., taskVarAdd() is called twice from a task for a same variable]. This struct will maintain the taskID, message queue ids for that task. My Questions...
