Prototype

OS_FLAGS  OSFlagPost (OS_FLAG_GRP  *p_grp,
                      OS_FLAGS      flags,
                      OS_OPT        opt,
                      OS_ERR       *p_err)

Arguments

p_grp

is a pointer to the event flag group.

...

the call is successful.

OS_ERR_FLAGOBJ_INVALIDPTR_OPTNULL

If OS_CFG_ARG_CHK_EN is set to 1 in DEF_ENABLED in os_cfg.h: if you specified an invalid optionthe caller passed a NULL pointer.

OS_ERR_OBJ_PTR_NULLTYPE

If OS_CFG_OBJ_ARGTYPE_CHK_EN is set to 1 in DEF_ENABLED in os_cfg.h: p_grp is not pointing to an event flag group.

OS_ERR_OPT_INVALID

If OS_CFG_ARG_CHK_EN is set to DEF_ENABLED in os_cfg.h: if the caller passed a NULL pointeryou specified an invalid option.

OS_ERR_OS_OBJNOT_TYPERUNNING

If If OS_CFG_INVALID_OBJOS_TYPECALLS_CHK_EN is set to 1 in  is set to DEF_ENABLED in os_cfg.h: p_grp is not pointing to an event flag groupif µC/OS-III is not running yet.

Returned Value

The new value of the event flags.

...

OS_CFG_FLAG_EN must be enabled in os_cfg.h. Refer to uCµC-OS-III Configuration Manual.

Callers

Application and ISRs.

...

1. Event flag groups must be created before they are used.
2. The execution time of this function depends on the number of tasks waiting on the event flag group. However, the execution time is still deterministic.
3. Although the example below shows that we are posting from a task, OSFlagPost() can also be called from an ISR.
