Overview

This library provides simple round-robin scheduling based on the mbed-os.

Why would you want to use this?

  • Tasks are not run from within interrupt sub-routines (as they are using Tickers)
  • Ordering/priority of tasks is deterministic (rate monotonic)

It's not rocket science, just a handy wrapper around the RTOS functions.

Example

#define BASE_RATE 0.1f
#define TASK1_MULTIPLIER 1
#define TASK2_MULTIPLIER 2
....
    RoundRobin::instance()->SetBaseRate( BASE_RATE );
    RoundRobin::instance()->addTask( TASK1_MULTIPLIER, lcdRefresh );
    RoundRobin::instance()->addTask( TASK2_MULTIPLIER, watchButtons );
