Ok. I added the tool. I also had to add some cruft to configure.in to get the --wrap flags in src/testsuite/cyclic/Makefile. Now, running this test seem to have uncovered a bug with the binary heap based timers that the latency test did not show. I am investigating on this, but in the mean time, please do not enable the binary heap timers option. > Additionally, I'm convinced that the POSIX skin is an > underutilized goodie albeit it works damn well and obviously favours a > close integration within the Linux environment, simply because there is > a lack of explanation about it.

As for the documentation, you may have noticed that I am in the process of documenting the POSIX API, you can follow the progression here : http://download.gna.org/xenomai/documentation/trunk/html/api/group__posix.html Please, everybody, feel free to send comments, critics, patches. I guess you would like something like a POSIX API tour, but in order to write that, we would need a concrete example, such as, for example, playing .wav files with a PC speaker. -- Gilles Chanteperdrix. _______________________________________________ Xenomai-core mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/xenomai-core
