OSTaskCreate (): 
 
Synopsis:  
 
BYTE OSTaskCreate( void ( * task )( void * taskfunc ), void * data,
void * pstacktop, void * pstackbot, BYTE priority );  
 
Description:  
 
This function creates a new task. You must supply storage for the stack that this new task will
use.

Note: The stack must be 4 byte aligned.  
 
Warning: The uC/OS can only have one task at each priority.  
 
Parameters:  

Returns: 
 
OS_NO_ERR (0) --- If successful 
OS_PRIO_EXIST (40) --- If the requested priority already exists   
OSTaskDelete --- Delete a task  
OSChangePrio --- Change a task's priority  
OSSimpleTaskCreate --- A macro that sets up the stack and starts the task at the proper priority  
 
Example: 
 
// Make sure they're 4 byte aligned to keep the Coldfire happy 
asm( " .align 4 " );
 
DWORD MyTaskStk[USER_TASK_STK_SIZE] __attribute__( ( aligned( 4 ) ) );
 
// The function the new task will start in. pdata will have the value
// of my_data as provided in the OSTaskCreate Call
void mytask(void * pdata)
 {
 }
 
if (OSTaskCreate(mytask, 
                (void*)my_data, 
                (void*)&MyTaskStk[USER_TASK_STK_SIZE], 
                (void *)MyTaskStk, MyPrio
                )!=OS_NO_ERR)
                  { // Handle error
