Issue with using FreeRTOS

[aloysiousBenoy]

Hey @maxgerhardt thanks for the great work done here.

I'm trying to use FreeRTOS in my project but I'm unable to access FreeRTOS in my project. I expect this to be some configuration issue but I can't find why this happening to save my life.
I imported FreeRTOS.h as per the arduino-pico documentation. But I'm unable to access functions like vTaskDelay or xTaskCreate in my code.

This is the error I get:

Am I missing something here? As per the arduino-pico documentation, there is out the box support for FreeRTOS and It mentions that all I need to do is just add the header. Thanks again.

note: ignore the empty parameters to the xTaskCreate call

Can you post your current platformio.ini?

[env:pico]
platform = https://github.com/maxgerhardt/platform-raspberrypi.git
board = pico
framework = arduino
board_build.core = earlephilhower
upload_protocol = cmsis-dap
debug_tool = cmsis-dap
lib_deps = 
    seeed-studio/Accelerometer_MMA7660@^1.0.0
    olikraus/U8g2@^2.34.18

that was fast

Like in traditional FreeRTOS programming, you have to #include <task.h> to get access to the task functionality.

I've verified that

#include <Arduino.h>
#include <FreeRTOS.h>
#include <task.h>
#include <MMA7660.h>
#include <U8g2lib.h>

TaskHandle_t myTaskHandle;
void my_task(void* arg) {
    (void) arg;
    while(1) {
        Serial.println("Hello from my task!");
        vTaskDelay(1000 / portTICK_PERIOD_MS);
    }
    vTaskDelete(NULL); // never reached but good practice
}

void setup() {
    Serial.begin(115200);
    xTaskCreate(&my_task, "MYTASK", 1024 /* num of 32-bit stack elements */, NULL, configMAX_PRIORITIES - 2, &myTaskHandle);
}

void loop() { delay(1000); }

// no setup1(), loop1() functions in this case to use Core1

compiles normally and does produce the expected serial output.

oh...that was so silly from me.

Thank you so much for your time. Sorry for the inconvenience. Really appreciate the help. You're unbelievably awesome.

I feel so dumb rn. I should probably get some sleep.
