I'm just looking to get timestamps in the real time task. At least in my case being able to call gettimeofday from the real time thread would be exactly what I need. By the way, calling gettimeofday currently within a real time thread seems to occasionally freeze up my whole system. I was going to make another post for this after I got a chance to verify some details. Has anyone noticed anything similar to this? _______________________________________________ Xenomai-help mailing list Xenomai-help@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/xenomai-help
