Ok, I will try, here. I am using TinyOS-2.x, so I will only comment on
this version.
Correct me if I have misunderstood.
a normal C function is really like a private function to your TinyOS
application (thread return until a function is finished), while a task
(you can post it, thread return immediately) is a special function that
add a process to the processor scheduler for later execution.
Note:
In TinyOS 2.x, a basic post will only fail if and only if the task has
already been posted and has not started execution. And there will be
fewer than 255 tasks in the system.
for more info, please refer to

Hi all,
I read the tutorials on tinyos-2.x but i still haven't understood the
difference between a function (in C style) and a task
Does anyone explain me this difference, please?
Thanks in advance
