RTOS Task Notification

Hi,

I was wondering if RTOS Task Notifications - FreeRTOS™ would work on the RAK4630 when developing in platformio using the arduino framework with platform nordicnrf52?

I’ve been using semaphores up to now, but i think the above might be better.
I can’t get it to work though… so i’m wondering if that’s expected.

Welcome back @cyclops

If you can use RTOS task notifications depends if the Arduino BSP or PlatformIO package has enabled them in the RTOS configuration.

I did not test task notifications, but I don’t think there is a big difference to using binary semaphores.

Yea, i just spotted their note on the performance/memory footprint for the task and tried it, but couldn’t get it to work. Reverting back to semaphores now :slight_smile:

Thanks!
