1. Miscellaneous API
  1. Objects in µC/OS-III are named when they are created and these functions are not required in µC/OS-III.
  2. The implementation of the multi-pend functionality is changed from µC/OS-II. However, the purpose of multi-pend is the same, to allow a task to pend (or wait) on multiple objects. In µC/OS-III, however, it is possible to only multi-pend on semaphores and message queues and not event flags and mutexes.
  3. µC/OS-III returns an error code for this function. Initialization is successful if OS_ERR_NONE is received from OSInit(). In µC/OS-II, there is no way of detecting an error in the configuration that caused OSInit() to fail.
  4. An error code is returned in µC/OS-III for this function.
  5. Enable or disable µC/OS-III’s round-robin scheduling at run time, as well as change the default time quanta.
  6. A task that completes its work before its time quanta expires may yield the CPU to another task at the same priority.
  7. An error code is returned in µC/OS-III for this function.
  8. Note the change in name for the function that computes the “capacity” of the CPU for the purpose of computing CPU usage at run-time.
  9. An error code is returned in µC/OS-III for this function.
