OSIdleTaskHook() runs  runs in the context of the idle task and thus it is important to make sure there is sufficient stack space in the idle task. OSIdleTaskHook() must not make any  make any OS???Pend() calls calls, call call OSTaskSuspend() or  or OSTimeDly???().

Example Usage

The code below calls an application-specific hook that the application programmer can define. The user can simply set the value of OS_AppIdleTaskHookPtr to point to the desired hook function which in this case is assumed to be defined in os_app_hooks.c. The idle task calls OSIdleTaskHook() which in turns calls App_OS_IdleTaskHook() through OS_AppIdleTaskHookPtr.
