Feature Request - Program Operation Priority Option #335

Open bstott opened 10 years ago

bstott commented 10 years ago

Feature (Safety) Request - Have the choice within the application to run Mission Planning as: 'Normal', 'High' or 'Real Time' Priority within our OS.

Reasons: When we start MP we are intent and focused on the UAV, which can be controlled from this application, it should run without too much interruption from other running processes on the base station. It would be a safety feature to be able to have an internal selection setting for MP to run as: 'Normal', 'High' or 'Real Time' when it is started. This way other running processes are less apt to interrupt the base station operations.

Yes?

Mp internal already does a fair bit of thread priority modifications. but only on things like the serial reader/joystick. This is per thread, not the entire process.
