+ Previously, if a task was deleted, the memory allocated to the task by the RTOS was freed in the Idle task. Now if a task deletes another task the memory is freed immediately. The idle task is however still responsible for freeing the memory when a task deletes itself.
+ Added pcQueueGetQueueName() function to return the name of a queue from its handle, assuming the queue is registers.
Demo application:
+ Update GenQTest to exercise the new pcQueueGetQueueName() function.
+ Delete workspaces from old Eclipse examples, leaving just the projects.
+ Rework comments in the MSVC simply blinky demo.
Links to a documentation page for each demo are provided on the following
URL: http://www.freertos.org/a00090.html
Each RTOS port has a demo application to demonstrate it's use.
+ The Demo/Common directory contains the demo application files as described on
the http://www.FreeRTOS.org WEB site. Each file creates one or more tasks.
The files in the Demo/Common directory are used by every demo application for
every port.
+ All the other directories contain a project or makefile for the demo
application targeted at a particular microcontroller.
For example, if you are interested in the ATMega323 demo application for
the WinAVR tools then the AVR_ATMega323_WinAVR directory contains the
relevant makefile. The makefile includes files from the Demo/ATMega323
and the Demo/Common directories. If this is the only port you are
interested in then all the other directories can be ignored.
