This is my first stab at multitasking. My task stack is 50 bytes.
Just before starting my main loop I start the task with... | Code: | | CallTask TTLTask, TTLStack |
The task is... | Code: | Sub TTLTask()
Call WaitForInterrupt(zxPinChange, INT0) 'pin16 = ZC
cnt = cnt + 1
End Sub |
Pin16 has a square wave ZC from a TW523.
No matter how long the app runs, cnt never exceeds 1, indicating the task only gets called once.
Do I need to wrap the task procedure in a Do:Loop? |

The End Sub effectively ends the task. So yes you do need some kind of loop if you want the task to do more work. |

Thanks - it works as expected with a loop. |
