Hi.
I want to ask that if i want to design or change a RTOS,, should i design and test in windows environment ?

where i should test the timing anomalies ?
how i test my RTOS ?

is it ambiguous grammar or ambiguous problem?

thanks for all.[/b]
 

G'day,

You should be testing an RTOS on actual hardware, not in an emulated environemt.

You should be able to calculate the timing of the RTOS yourself from the code, infact you should be writing the code with things like max latency in mind. In a small RTOS this will mostly likely just be how long the scheduler can run for, but on a larger RTOS this could be a LOT of work

How do you test anything ?
You determine what it should do and test if it always does it correctly.

is it ambiguous grammar or ambiguous problem?

The actual RTOS is not that difficult as it has(should have) well defined semantics. Applications on top of the RTOS, well that is a different story.
